Ideas for School Wide Initiatives
Listen to the full episode below:
Have you ever taught a great lesson only to have your student forget everything the next time they walk through your door? Teaching students truly takes a village, so it only makes sense we take advantage of our resources. I’m talking about peers, teachers, custodians, and more!
Think about it. When you explicitly teach a topic and then another staff member refers to it in the hallway, on the playground, or in the lunchroom then your teaching has extended far beyond your lesson. The more your students see and hear the terms and visuals you teach them, the less you’ll be reacting to a crisis. Once you put these strategies into action, I’d love to hear how you got your school community involved!
Some topics covered in this episode are:
What it means to run a school wide initiative
How to get the whole school (and parents) on board
Ways to utilize visuals to increase your impact
The 3 benefits of school wide initiatives
How to get started with school wide initiatives
