@RutgersAltRoute #TeacherEd #SafeSchools HIB challenges teachers to prioritize SEL & a positive classroom environment over academics. Tools like Zones of Regulation, brain breaks, & One Book-One School foster learning by creating safe, supportive spaces for all students.

#TeacherEd #SafeSchools Reflecting on our 5th and final question, Q5, reminds us that each day or class period brings a fresh opportunity. Consider the additional opportunities that might arise as you wrap up the year and prepare to start 2025 with your students.
