This workshop is the first in a series of workshops for novice teachers (in years 1-3 of their teaching career). During this virtual session teachers will focus on engagement strategies and discuss an asset based stance on teaching. Participants will discuss and analyze classroom management strategies and struggles. Participants will identify the characteristics of an intentionally inviting classroom and meet in community with other novice teachers.
