This year, I have put emphasis on our class being a team. Our team is not complete if one of our teammates is missing. Our team cannot be successful if one teammate doesn’t contribute their unique talent. As a team, we decided that one of our goals is to have full attendance and full participation every single day. To help achieve this goal, we realize that a cool down corner/reading nook would be beneficial to our classroom. This will help achieve our goal because it will allow for students to have a place to cool down/reset from any frustrations without having to leave the classroom and miss instructional time.
