One of our biggest challenges this year is having a large enough space for everyone to gather. We envision a room in which students can meet, feel relaxed, and be ready to learn. My students face a variety of challenges and daily conversations every morning together help deal with the issues that they are trying to get out of the way before they are able to concentrate. Some students need academic assistance, some face a home life that is difficult to leave at the door, and others have emotional issues. Regardless of our backgrounds or challenges, when we come into the classroom, we are together as a class family and we use whole group time together to discuss our problems and learn.
