I’ve spent over 10 years teaching through a theme-based morning meeting framework and perfecting the routines that have allowed my students to transform into caring, thoughtful, responsible individuals who have strategies and skills for being successful in life.

But, you don’t have to just take it from me, check out these teachers’ stories.

"As a first year teacher I know how important building a classroom community is. However, implementing a classroom meeting for my students had been near impossible in my student population with my still developing teaching skills. In addition to that, I'm at a school that really needs to have a social emotional curriculum and does not. As the year has gone on and my 5th graders are getting ready for middle school, I am seeing a lot more "drama" and disrespect within the classroom. This was really hard for me because I didn't want this to be how my classroom operates and I knew something had to be done!

I saw your morning meeting resources a bit ago, but finally took the plunge and purchased the whole series.

It's amazing to see my students engaging with the ideas and having something concrete to think about as well as giving them words to express their feelings and a deeper understanding of the importance of being respectful to yourself and others.

I wish I had started this sooner and I look forward to using these lessons year-round next school year! It has given my students the social-emotional curriculum they need. " 💕

and...it's not just new teachers that have experienced this transformation...Take it from Jennifer, a 21 year veteran teacher who took over a maternity leave right before winter break.

Jennifer could tell that her students needed to go back and address the quality of their community and "reprogram" (her words) a few things. After going through the morning meeting framework PD, she emailed to say, "I just finished the morning meetings training and I am so excited to give this a go. This is giving me the confidence to tackle issues that I did not quite know how to address."
