Building a community within the classroom is very important. It could be the deciding factor on whether a child will participate or not. It could be the sole reason that a child misses school or comes to school. Community is where the teacher has to proactively plan to help all learners see that they have something to contribute. Teachers can help students see that even though not all students can contribute the same, that no contribution is too tiny or less valuable.
A classroom that concentrates on building community is a classroom with respect and cooperation. It teachers diversity and it celebrates "uniqueness". |
