Invite every student to share a drawing, word, or photo that shows how they feel about the first day of school. This visual display lets all students see that their feelings matter and helps build a sense of belonging.
Choose a section of your classroom wall or bulletin board for the 'Welcome Wall.' Label it clearly so students know it's a safe place to express themselves.
Provide materials like paper, markers, and crayons. Encourage students to draw, write, or choose a photo that represents their first-day feelings.
Let each student explain their image or word to the class before adding it to the wall. This promotes listening, empathy, and classroom community.
Encourage students to look at the Welcome Wall throughout the year and add new feelings or experiences. Use it as a tool to spark discussions about change, growth, and belonging.
