Community of Learners

Teamwork makes the dream work




Introductions

  • name cards: affirmative version of your name (how you want us to call you) with pronouns (make it decorative, use favorite colors); write your name phonetically

  • share one things that brings you joy (this can be anything)

  • share out


  • Discussion: What is the difference between Community Agreements and Rules / Norms?

  • FFW (7 min): What guidelines would be helpful to have in place for you to feel comfortable to share unfinished writing aloud? Establishing a healthy and supportive learning community?

  • In groups of 2 - 3, use poster paper to come up with community agreements AND how we can gently "call each other in" when we (individually or collectively) do not uphold our community agreements. Try to phrase each agreement in actionable / constructive language (What does it look like for us to "actively listen?" What does it feel like for us to "respect a diversity of perspectives?" How can we practice "restorative justice" when someone makes a mistake, in a way that does not ostracize that person and honors the group?)

Group Presentations of Posters


Reflection: What themes stand out to us from small group Community Agreements?



“Our histories never unfold in isolation. We cannot truly tell what we consider to be our own histories without knowing the other stories. And often we discover that those other stories are actually our own stories.”
