Threshold greetings have been proven to increase student engagement and build community. This session will look further into why we should be using threshold greetings and how we can effectively implement them in our classrooms. Attendees will understand how these greetings can help build rapport and take a daily “pulse” of the classroom, while simultaneously setting expectations for the day or class period. All of this can be done with little or no cost, making this an option to increase success for all school communities.
