"Teachers have long known that feeling safe and secure in school helps students focus their energy on learning. And the research bears that out: A 2018 studyfound that when teachers deliberately foster a sense of belonging by greeting each student at the door of the class, they see “significant improvements in academic engaged time and reductions in disruptive behavior.”
"Edutopia covered that study last year, and we’ve shared many other ideas from teachers for ensuring that every student in the classroom feels like they belong.
"Some of the activities below take less than five minutes. They’re divided up among the grades, but many can apply across all of the years from kindergarten to 12th grade."
