Building a classroom community

Submitted by Angie (not verified) on March 22, 2008 - 18:23.

I feel it is very important to build a community within your classroom. I build a school family where we all have jobs and expectations. We treat each other with mutual respect and fostering this kind of relationship within the classroom, really create an environment where students can feel comfortable and take risks. I think that if you foster this school family that the students can achieve more because they feel safe and comfortable.
