Lesson Plan
Routines Co-Creation Plan
Students will collaboratively define key daily routines—morning arrival, transitions, and end-of-day procedures—so they co-create classroom procedures for smooth, student-led days.
Co-creating routines empowers 1st graders, builds ownership, reduces disruptions, and fosters a positive classroom community by valuing student voices.
