 We start each day by having a "Morning Meeting." There are four components to a morning meeting: 1) Greeting 2) Sharing 3) Group Activity 4) Morning Message

There are several purposes for having a morning meeting: -Sets a tone for respectful and engaged learning in a climate of trust
-Builds and enhances connections among students and between students and teachers
-Merges academic, social, and emotional learning
-Motivates students by addressing the human need to feel a sense of significance and belonging, and to have fun
-Through the repetition of many ordinary moments of respectful interaction, enables some extraordinary moments
