Three Reasons to Have a Heart-Centered Classroom

What is a heart-centered classroom? 

A heart-centered classroom has a strong classroom management system. But it is rooted in social and emotional development. Teachers and students are invested in the classroom environment equally. In a heart-centered classroom, your students will display character traits such as compassion, empathy, and resilience. Every classroom should have heart at its core. I believe that teachers should have the resources to have a heart-centered classroom. 

“Classroom management is my thing, and at the core is heart.”

It’s very important for me to empower my students to make healthy decisions about behavior and relationships in and out of the classroom. So, it has been my mission to provide teachers with the most simple but effective way to create a meaningful sense of community and to empower your students to build resilience! I want all teachers to be able to have a thriving classroom community, give their students a lifelong foundation in social and emotional skills and teach their students how to repair relationships in meaningful ways.

Why should you have a heart-centered classroom?

How many times do you have to stop your instruction to handle a conflict in your classroom? Especially when teaching early elementary students, this number can get pretty high throughout the course of a school day. When you have a heart-centered classroom, your students will be able to confidently handle conflict while you step into the role of facilitator, leaving you more time to focus on instruction.

How great would it feel to give your students the lifelong foundations to have intentional and connected relationships? Your students will feel safe to explore words like empathy, gratitude, and kindness. Furthermore, they’ll be more engaged in classroom activities because of this heart-centered approach.

Having the right resources and time to teach your students social and emotional learning can be daunting. In a heart-centered classroom, social and emotional learning will no longer be separate from the rest of your day. You will be weaving it into everything you do.
