Classroom Community Resources for the Math Classroom

Can I just start by saying I am so excited to share this bundle with all of you! All of these activities are great for getting to know your students as math learners and building a positive math culture and community!

*Please note: This bundle is ALMOST complete! In the future, if I add anything that relates to building a positive math community I will add it to this resource! I also have a bundle of just the Get to Know You Activities or a bundle of JUST the classroom community lessons, but this bundle is definitely the better value!

One of my biggest passions is helping students LOVE math (or at least like it!). I have a firm belief that one way to do this is by building strong relationships and creating a positive classroom community of math learners so students are willing to take risks, struggle and make mistakes, work together, and learn and grow! I'm no expert and I'm not perfect at it, but it's something I try to get better at every year.

Okay now that I shared all of that, are you in?
