First Day of School Info Sheet
by Still feel like a new teacher
Aug 25, 2012
Hi. I'm trying to improve my first day of school.

What questions do you put on your first day of school information sheet?

What activities do you do?

I want to have a great first day.

What's a good "get the kids to share with each other" activity?

Thank you for your help!

Linsey My last question is always along the lines of: Is there something you want me to know about you or you think I need to know about you? I deliberately leave it open ended and tell them they don't have to write anything there if they don't want to. Most don't write anything, but the ones who do can be very enlightening. I have had students write thin...See More
