For Elementary teachers: Creating a Safe and Engaging Learning Environment for All Learners How can we create a classroom where every student feels valued, empowered, and motivated to learn? In this session, we’ll explore practical strategies to build a safe and inclusive classroom community that meets the needs of diverse learners. Learn how simple yet powerful practices—like establishing a class identity with a name and mascot, holding daily class councils for student voice, and incorporating passion projects for advanced learners—can transform the culture of your classroom.

Participants will walk away with actionable ideas they can immediately implement to strengthen classroom relationships, enhance engagement, and create a positive, student-centered environment. Whether you're a new teacher or a seasoned educator, this session will provide fresh inspiration to make your classroom a place where all students thrive.
