Classroom Community



At Great Falls Elementary in Gorham, a significant amount of time is dedicated at the start of the year to building a strong classroom community. But what exactly is a classroom community? It's a positive environment where students feel respected, supported, and safe to express themselves, promoting mutual respect, trust, and inclusivity. This kind of atmosphere fosters collaboration, empathy, and active participation, creating a sense of belonging and motivation to learn. Take a look at this excellent example that highlights the powerful benefits of building a strong community!
