BUILDING COMMUNITY IN THE CLASSROOM
As teachers, it is a very difficult job to take a group of different students and teach them in ways that meet all of their needs on every level: academic, emotional, and social.
In the classroom, part of the teacher’s job is to provide opportunities by which students can help and support one another, and at the same time learning.
By building a community in the classroom, teachers produce a general and predictable cultural understanding that helps children feel associated to others. It is important to make the students feel relaxed and help them create a home-like surroundings, and make them feel the same sense of trust in school as they do at home in order for them feel certain and able of doing stuff and share their thoughts.
