Hearts and hands of Gratitude: November Classroom Community Activities

November is a fantastic month to build classroom community and focus on gratitude.

Activities for classroom community in the fall take on a deeper level. We’re past getting to know you and moving in to building deeper and stronger relationships and learning and growing together.

November classroom community is a perfect time to connect with students and show gratefulness….thankfulness in this busy school season.

How to build/create classroom community in Fall and November!

If you haven’t grab your Classroom Community Guide which will set up the blueprint for your plan (where you can add all these pieces in!)

Have you developed a morning meeting routine at this point of the year in your classroom?

This might be a good time to get those routines started in your classroom!

Hello….fall celebrations and no last minute planning!

Scavenger Hunts are awesome classroom community activities

Hunt together or separate…..

Virtual or in-person…..

Movement, fun, playing together – all leads to student connection.

A November scavenger hunt can even be done as part of a class party, do one action a day for Morning meeting or even just a fun incentive or reward!

If creating classroom community is your mission (and you want it to feel true to you – hello introverted teachers!) join the Classroom Community Collective where you get resources to use and a community to walk through this together -totally changing your outlook on teaching!
