Morning meeting
Morning meeting
Every morning students meet together on the classroom carpet. This is a wonderful activity to promote sharing ideas collaboratively and effectively, in a judgement-free way.
This also includes the morning message, which incorporates numerous mistakes in grammar and punctuation, as well as a math "problem of the day." This is a great way for students to work together to problem solve and discuss.
The classroom carpet and easel are pictured above, showing where daily morning meetings take place!
