🤝  The Community Collection 🤝​ ​ ​

Create an environment where students feel they belong.

Teaching is relational. Every day is filled with chances to connect, or miss the mark. The Community Collection gives you simple, meaningful ways to build trust, spark conversation, and help your students feel seen, heard, and valued.
Why Community Matters
When students feel part of a community, they’re more engaged, collaborative, and willing to take healthy risks.
When you feel connected to your class, teaching feels less like managing and more like leading. This collection gives you practical ways to build that sense of belonging, without adding extra work.
How to use this collection
These Community Collection resources are designed to be flexible and easy to slot into your day. Use them to:
​

✅ Strengthen relationships between students
✅ Build trust and a sense of belonging
✅ Create a more collaborative, respectful classroom culture

Here are some of the most-loved tools from the Community Collection, designed to build trust, spark conversation, and make your classroom feel like a true community.

With an increase in bullying behaviors this year, this lesson has been a tremendous help with my students. Plan to use it with a few more groups throughout the year.
