Staff Meetings that end in High Fives & Hugs

Created by

Inquiry Partners

High Fives & Hugs is a simple and powerful 45-minute activity that helps teachers find what they have in common, offers opportunity for written reflection and sets up a support system that lasts the entire school year - and beyond! I've done this with school staffs (elementary, middle and high) and it's a winner every time. PS - This activity also works great for all grade levels and starts the year out with a real sense of community.

My own education history

Third-generation Seattle Public Schools student. Part of an inspiring open-classroom model in Columbia City in the 1970s. I was a compliant, but not very curious, student. I "played" school well and only later realized that there was a very different way of teaching and learning that was infinitely more rewarding for students and teachers . My mission now is to help teachers create curious, engaged classrooms!
