Welcome everyone to our Circle of Support session. Introduce yourself and explain that today we’ll explore peer support and active listening to build a stronger classroom community.

Read through each objective so students know what to expect. Emphasize that everyone will practice and reflect.

Explain why peer support matters. Share an example of when support made a difference. Encourage nodding and positive body language.

Introduce the warm-up activity. Hand out sticky notes and markers. Model writing your own example first.

Explain each step clearly. Show the Support Circle Poster and pass out worksheets. Encourage creativity with markers.

Review these key active listening behaviors. Invite a volunteer to demonstrate with you.

Gather students back into the circle. Use a talking object if needed. Encourage everyone to share briefly.

Wrap up the session by collecting sticky notes and explaining the support board. Thank students for their participation.
