Morning meeting time is important because it sets the tone for the rest of the day. It’s a time when students can relax and get to know their classmates. Using morning meeting time wisely will help build a positive classroom environment and instill positive character traits in your students.

Greetings in Morning Meeting:

One way to make morning meeting time more enjoyable is to start with a fun greeting. This can be something as simple as a high five or sharing a joke. You could also have students line up and give each other hugs or play tag. The options are endless! Be creative and have fun with it!

Sharing in Morning Meeting

After the greeting, it’s time for students to share what’s on their minds. This is a great opportunity for them to practice their speaking skills. You could have students share one thing they did over the weekend or something they’re looking forward to this week. Students could also share something they’re grateful for or proud of. Encourage your students to be respectful listeners while their peers are sharing.

Activities in Morning Meeting

The last part of morning meeting is reserved for activity time. This is when students can work on their listening skills and learn more about their classmates. Activities could include playing games, doing team-building exercises, or participating in discussions. Choose activities that are appropriate for the age and skill level of your students.
