 My name is Todd Florey, and I'm going to share one classroom management strategy that we use. Sometimes we have class meetings, and in those class meetings, we have a talking piece. Now this talking piece has thumbprints of all my students on this rock. It could be a rock, it could be any other object. And the thumbprints symbolize that each person brings their own creativity and individuality to the classroom, but yet we all come together as one class. And the rules of the talking piece is that whoever is holding the talking piece is the only one who can talk. Everyone else is listening. So we may ask questions such as what is one thing that you learned today, or what is one thing that you're looking forward to doing this weekend, or if there are other issues that come up in the classroom, then this is a great opportunity to talk with that as well. So each student responds holding the talking piece and then passes it over to the next person. They respond and so forth. So this is a great opportunity for all students to feel heard and validated and to have an equal opportunity to share.
