Creating Caring Communities

Creating Caring Communities: Responding to Bullying and Exclusion
with guest speaker Professor Mara Sapon-Shevin.
 
Presented by FIN (The Florida Inclusion Network) and FDLRS (The Florida Diagnostic & Learning Resources System)
 
Creating classroom communities in which children treat one another well can't just mean eliminating negative interpersonal behavior. It must mean using active teaching strategies to help students develop repertoires of inclusion, good communication and collaboration. Through songs, games, children's literature and interactive activities, we will experience ways to build community and explore how we can implement similar strategies in our own classrooms and schools.
