Attendance
Kids who have good relationships with their teachers attend school more. Kind and caring teachers naturally incorporate relationship-building into heir interactions with students, but there are specific strategies and activities that can be used in your classroom to strengthen the bond between you and your students - both individually and as a whole. The following strategies and activities are developmentally appropriate for 4th and 5th grade students. Please use this as a resource to support positive connections and school attendance in your classroom.
