84 | Promote Empathy and Kindness in the Classroom with this Formula!
Description
We hear a lot about building teacher-student relationships—but what about peer-to-peer? In this episode, we're diving into why helping students form meaningful friendships may be the most important thing you do all year. You'll learn my simple Friendship Formula, how to teach it explicitly, and how it transforms your classroom culture.
Because let’s face it—students can’t learn if they don’t feel like they belong. And belonging? It starts with connection.
If your classroom feels disconnected or cliquey, this episode is for you. Discover how to foster real friendships, reduce behavior issues, and create a culture where kids show up ready to learn—and stay connected all year.
