Class Rules Paper Chain&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3><p>When starting the new school year, it is imperative to set the tone for the classroom community. Let your class make a paper chain with each student making a link and penning down one value like respect, empathy, kindness, inclusiveness etc. on it.<\/p><p>To do this mindful back to school activity, all you need is coloured paper, scissors and glue. Start with writing one value on a paper strip you feel all students must adhere to in the classroom. Glue its ends and pass it to students, who then add their paper loop with the value they resonate with to make a paper chain.<\/p><p>Once everyone is done, display the completed classroom rules paper chain on the bulletin board for everyone to see and stay conscious of. This simple back to school idea will serve as a mindful reminder to be kind to each other and maintain the decorum of the class.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>21.
