Classroom Community...Building Trust/Safety

Trust/safety is one of the most important factors in any classroom.  Trust in my classroom includes that everyone will be safe and be given the opportunity to learn and create.  It is a pertinent part of relationships between students and teachers...and equally between teacher and students...trust should always be purposely created.
In the art room, where there are so many levels of artist, kids need to feel safe in creating.  No matter where they are...they should feel the confidence to create and be proud of their work.

Oh, yeah, maybe I should address the assigned topic instead of just going off on my current random tangent. Fine.
