Grades 1–12
EducatorIn whatever space this finds you, we are so glad you’re here. You may be reading this because you believe, like we do, that building safe and supportive spaces is vital work for any educator. At 826 National, creating a welcoming and brave space is a core tenet of our work.
Walk into any 826 chapter, and you will find an environment designed for and by students to feel welcome, write, take risks, be silly, and grow confidence in their voice.
The first week together is the ideal time to begin building a welcoming and brave space with your students. By emphasizing building relationships and establishing a safe space, you signal to your students that you value their identity, their voice, and their work. This guide covers one approach to centering students in the community-building process: co-creating community agreements.
