Morning Meeting Routines

Singing songs, stretching and saying pledges to one another helps make our classroom a safe place for all students and also reminds us how much we care about each other. Here are the special routines during our morning meeting that help us start the day:

Sing our Class Song (to the tune of : You Are My Sunshine)
You are my family.
My school family.
I feel so happy,
When we are here.
I hope you know friends,
How much I like you!
(
make eye contact and point to a friend)
When we're apart,
I'll keep you here!
(
cross hands over your heart)
Say our Class Pledge
I choose to be a peacemaker. I pledge to praise others. I will never use put downs. I will seek wise people. I will speak up about hurt feelings, others or mine. I will solve problems. I will build peace at home. I will build peace at school. I will build peace in my community everyday!
