Alexa, First Grade Classroom Teacher #MoTeacherChat #Moravian AR

A1 We begin to build a relationship through communication, respect, and understanding, similarly to how we build relationships with our students. #MoravianAR #MoTeacherChat

One way is to be in a positive mindset, willing to help, listen, and to reach out letting them know you have got their back. #MoravianAR #MoTeacherChat

When we have grade level activities like volleyball with the kids. #MoravianAR #MoTeacherChat

A1: Give specific praise. "I really like to see you using creativity in ..." "I love the way you thought about this.." #MoravianAR

A2: Students having a choice in how they sit provides motivation. I recently had a fantastic substitute who rearranged my desks. I was shocked at first, but I asked my students how they felt about it and they wanted to keep it..so we did! #MoravianAR

A3:I like to take time to introduce complex vocabulary and explain what exactly I mean. I also ask students to use that vocabulary. Vocab has been discovered to be very important for developing readers. #MoravianAR
