.I have always referred to my classroom as the "selfie" class, because the kids are in control. On the first day, we always take the time to draw a little selfie of ourselves in that moment. I explain to the students that they are the one in charge of the class, they will drive our learning, and they will create our culture. In an effort to expand on that idea this year, I have added a Permission to be Me Permission slip to our selfie assignment. Its super corny, but I'm excited for it. Sometimes all we need is someone to give us permission. And the only one who can really give you permission to be your true self(ie), is you! Click on the image below for the entire file
