Rituals for Warm-Start Wednesdays
Rituals for Warm-Start Wednesdays is a gentle collection of midweek practices designed to bring a little more light to the coldest stretch of the school year. Instead of adding one more task, it offers soft, optional rituals that help educators feel seen, supported, and grounded as winter routines settle in.
How it Works
Each idea is designed to be low-effort, optional, and easy to rotate throughout the month so Wednesdays feel predictable and comforting. The resource includes ready-to-use posters, quote cards, movement prompts, reflection activities, and connection ideas that can be set up quickly in staff spaces.
Educator Collaboration
This resource was built in collaboration with dedicated educators and school leaders who shared their experience, ideas, and insights at every step. We’re grateful for their partnership in creating tools that truly make a difference in schools.
