Lesson Plan

Building Our Crew Lesson Plan

Students will collaborate to establish a shared classroom identity and agree on behaviors that foster a supportive community by creating a team poster and reflecting on their experience.

Building a strong classroom community encourages empathy, cooperation, and a sense of belonging. These skills help 3rd graders work effectively together and feel safe, valued, and connected.
