Lesson Plan
Respect Roadmap
Students will collaboratively define and draft a classroom respect contract by brainstorming respectful behaviors, discussing real-life scenarios, and formalizing shared norms.
When students co-create the rules that govern their space, they feel ownership, build a positive climate, and hold each other accountable for respectful actions.
