It all starts at the class’s WOOF Space
Hello awesome colleague teacher
WOOF is a teacher driven movement to create increased wellbeing for young people through the classroom. WOOF was made by teachers for teachers to finally provide the necessary toolbox to work on the complex reality of developing wellbeing. In Scandinavia WOOF creates wellbeing at a 9/10 classroom success rate. We are thrilled to announce that on planetwoof.io US teachers and classrooms will be able to join the movement very soon. Stay tuned: WOOF!
With WOOF you can...
Give your class their very own WOOF SPACE
With its new WOOF SPACE, the class gets a place where you can work together completely anonymously with your class community. What do you like? What do you not like? What do you enjoy? What are you into? What sometimes creates dissatisfaction? You will become wise about all that, and then you will be able to work together to get it better together.
Make digital check-ins and be curious about what makes your class community unique
Once you have created your class on WOOF, you can start making digital check-ins - we call it "to WOOF".
It only takes 5 minutes and is a pleasant and fun joint activity in the class, where everyone participates, is heard and contributes to the community. When the class has the WOOF, you get an overall overview of how the class is doing, what affects it well and badly and what the class is up to right now.
Gain insight and follow the progress of the class
When you have WOOFed a few times, you begin to see what systematically affects the well-being of your class. At WOOF you can find courses and activities to work with the things that affect your well-being and community, and you can continuously follow the class's development in data. When you follow efforts with data, the development becomes concrete, and the students can see when together they succeed in creating an even better class community.
Differentiated for primary, secondary and high school classrooms
There are different things that are at stake in the class community for entering, intermediate and leaving school. Therefore, WOOF is also differentiated so that it suits the different age groups.
For example, WOOF for the start of school is made even more icon-based, so that the students do not need to be able to read. In the training, there is less focus on the dog, and more focus on the students speaking up and becoming active in the work of developing a strong class community
This is how a WOOF takes place

Students answer questions about their mood and what they like.
The anonymous responses count towards an overview of the class.
The class gets a general insight into how they are feeling right now.
It is a starting point for a conversation about “today’s temperature” and what we like together as a class.
Together you can follow the progress of the class and see if the efforts you initiate have an effect 🙂
