About This Lesson
It’s challenging – but so important – that we maintain connected relationships with our students during this time of disruption. But how can we do that, especially in the face of increased closures, absences, and hybrid or virtual learning environments?
The High 5 Adventure Learning Center team recommends five easy and effective practices for maintaining connections between educators and students based on the bestseller The 5 Love Languages, TM adapted for work with children by its original author Dr. Gary Chapman and co-author Ross Campbell as The 5 Love Languages of Children: The Secret to Loving Children Effectively (Chapman and Campbell, 2008). The 5 Love Languages provide a simple, quick, and effective method for meeting the connection needs of our students during this pandemic – while also acknowledging your connection style as an educator.
