Class Promises 2018-2019

Last week, during the first week of school, 5C worked together to write class promises. We started by identify characteristics of positive team experiences and negative team experiences. The kids shared a lot of quality ideas.

Then we came together to write our class promise. It's kind of fun to look at the many versions of our class promises document as we discussed and changed our minds.

After Some Edits

I asked that each student participate by sharing an idea for a promise or commenting on an idea that someone else shared. As always, I was blown away with their maturity and honesty as they shared about what is important to them.

We ended up with a document with 11 promise statements.

Once we had written our class promises, we decided to take it a step farther and create a video to share the promises that we wrote. Students partnered up to read one promise statement each. I am really proud of how it turned out!
