Morning meetings were considered essential for nurturing critical social skills, including problem-solving, critical thinking, empathy, teamwork, and respect, deemed crucial for success in the twenty-first century. The study explored teachers' perspectives and experiences with morning meetings, specifically investigating observable changes in teacher-student relationships as a result of continuous morning interactions.

Definitions were established, emphasizing the development of social skills, teacher-student relationships, and the improvement of classroom behavior. The literature review underscored the significance of morning meetings in meeting students' social and emotional needs, contributing to socio-emotional learning and creating positive school environments. The Responsive Classroom technique, incorporating morning meetings, was examined for its influence on students' conduct and social-emotional development. The review detailed the components of morning meetings, such as greetings, sharing, group activities, and morning messages, showcasing their role in fostering inclusivity and positive relationships within the classroom. The study concluded that morning meetings played a pivotal role in improving school discipline by fostering social and emotional growth, interpersonal skills, and a positive classroom environment.
