The BEST Creative Classroom Strategy to Get Kids Having Positive Peer Interactions (All You Need are Marbles)


Listen Later

Have you ever heard or observed a student interaction and asked, “Why did you say that?” or “Why did you do that?”

Then the student looks at you like you are crazy and they respond, “They are my friend.” or “I was just joking.”

Peer interactions aren’t always as positive as we would like them to be.

But, what if I told you there is a strategy called “plunkin'” that could get kids celebrating each other and recognizing all the awesome that happens in your classroom.

In this week’s episode of the This Teacher Life podcast I share an idea that happened on a “walk and talk” that blew my mind, in a good way!

Find out more about “Plunkin’ for Pizza” and “Walk and Talks” in this episode that is all about game changing, creative classroom ideas.
