We do an awesome job investing in our kids. Last year my #cohort21 project took a very academic route. I looked at peer to peer feedback last year. This year I want to take a more social look based on the conversations I&#8217;ve had with my students and the survey feedback they have given me. I want to help my homeroom create a cohesive community by offering them a wide variety of learning experiences that help them both grow as individuals, but also as a community.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve started with a few small team-building challenges that looks both at the communication of words and communication without words. Early in October we started planning for &#8220;Project 31&#8221;, a Halloween event and each and every one of my 19 students dressed up like a chocolate bar for Halloween and we passed out chocolate bars to the whole school.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve got plans to volunteer with BINGO at a seniors complex, and we are going to go watch some basketball games in the coming months to cheer on our classmates who are on the teams (basically, all but 2 students in our class).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure if after out meeting this will be the direction of my project this year, or if this will be just something I do to strengthen the community feel in my own homeroom class. Either way, I&#8217;m excited to see where we go from here. After all, this is just the beginning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I work at a school that prides itself on community. We do an awesome job investing in our kids.
