Abstract
Strong bonds created between a teacher and their students within the classroom can greatly help students in a variety of ways. According to the American Psychological Association (2015), the learning process in elementary and secondary classrooms is interpersonal, comprising of both student-teacher and peer relationships. Creating connections within the elementary classroom is vital. Positive student-teacher relationships have been shown to improve student behavior and academic success within the classroom (Kudlats & Brown, 2021). The purpose of this study is to evaluate how relationships between students and their teachers impact students’ learning during a pandemic. To evaluate this topic, I gathered research studies regarding classroom relationships during my student teaching in a fourth-grade classroom. This data consisted of field notes, lesson plans, and student work. I examined my data to look for trends relating to the impact my relationships had on my students in school. Throughout this study, I dove deeper into the importance of building strong relationships with students, especially after students were remote learning.
