RESET THE CLASSROOM

Back from Break: Reset for Success

The first day back after Thanksgiving is perfect for a classroom reset! Start with a warm welcome and invite students to share highlights from their holiday, like fun traditions or memorable meals. Reflect on past successes and review expectations to set a positive tone for the next stretch.

Use this time to evaluate your teaching practices. What worked well last term? What could improve? Focus on fostering stronger relationships by showing genuine interest in students’ holiday experiences and goals. Setting classroom and personal goals together creates a refreshed atmosphere and ensures a strong finish to the semester!
