Awesome Advisory
Awesome Advisory
Building positive relationships with students plays a huge role in student success. In this issue of BMS Teacher Spotlight, we would like to recognize Julie Zabel for her awesome advisory. Here is a list of things that make this advisory cohesive and collaborative:
· No chromebooks: Advisory is time for face-to-face conversations
· Morning Message: Each day, students begin advisory by writing their answer to the message on the white board. This is a great way to spark conversation and learn about each other’s interests.
· Seat Preference: Students have the opportunity to sit anywhere they want during advisory. The freedom of choice was something that was earned due to the respectful nature of this group of students.
· Advisory Board: Julie has a bulletin board that is dedicated to her advisory class. Each month, students decide how to decorate their advisory board to showcase their personalities or to highlight a holiday during that month.
· Joke of the Day: Students try to figure out the riddle that Julie posts on her white board. You can bet it is always something witty!
Feel free to try out any of these ideas in your own advisory class. If you have any ideas of your own to share, please let us know! We will be sure to include them in an upcoming issue of BMS Teacher Spotlight!
