It is all about classroom climate! The foundation of effective teaching is knowing that teaching is a human endeavor requiring deliberate practices to develop a classroom climate supporting the unique needs of every student. Now more than ever, as teachers move past the challenges created from Covid-19, developing classroom climates that support the needs of students is even more paramount to their success. While teachers have this supporting climate mindset, they often lack the strategies they need. Creating Positive ClassroomClimate is timely and provides examples of successful practices from teachers around the world on how to build positive climates in diverse settings. Teachers are introduced to strategies for classroom startup, developing critical relationships that build trust, establishing essential routines, and approaches to ensure ongoing support of a positive climate in their classrooms. Simply a great resource for all teachers!
