255: Before You Decorate Your Classroom, Here's a Better Idea

If the thought of decorating your classroom fills you with anxiety, or if you're just ready to try something different, I have good stuff for you. In this episode, educator and author Tom Rademacher shares two simple activities he did at the beginning of every school year to get to know his students AND fill the walls of his classroom with beautiful, personal, meaningful student products: The One Word Wall and the What You Bring project.

Thanks to Alpaca and the EVERFI for sponsoring this episode.
