Grades 1–12
EducatorFor students, the first week of school can be a mixed bag of emotions—everything from excitement to anxiety about the year ahead. We know that the first step to academic success is developing positive relationships with students—and creating space for students to build positive relationships with one another. While it may be tempting to dive into content, the first week of school is the perfect time to meet your students where they’re at and start making those connections! At 826, we love using writing for this purpose, because writing provides a unique opportunity for students to reflect on their identities and their values. Additionally, reading your students’ writing at this moment will help you tailor your planning for the specific needs of your students that year.
