Our priority at ClassEquity is to prepare students for the real world and show them what it feels like to take ownership of their lives as early as elementary school. This guide will walk you through which ClassEquity resources leverage research-based concepts that support the whole student, such as PBIS and SEL.

Materials Needed:

  • PD Presentation (make your own copy!)

  • Jamboard (make your own copy!)

  • Teacher account to share class code and give bonuses and fines
