                  One educator shared how she uses Along to start her online classes with connection and curiosity. Her favorite questions — like “Tell me about your name” or “What traditions matter to you?” — invite students to share personal stories and cultural traditions. When one student described a family celebration held 100 days after a baby’s birth, classmates were fascinated. It’s a powerful reminder of how simple questions can build belonging.
