Beginning of the year Activities for my Classroom!
Introductions: This is something that often gets
overlooked. Although the students know my name, they do
not know me. I am going to let them know some things about me. Where I grew up, where I went to school and how long I have been
teaching. The students will see me as
a real person if I share something about myself. I plan to include a scrapbook of some of my favorite school pictures from 5th grade and share some of my old school work assignments. This often opens up a good conversation about how students grow and goals we might have for ourselves this year! After all, I still do not write as I did as a 3rd, 4th or 5th grader...as they will all see!
Please Link up to the post with your own post telling everyone YOUR favorite first day activities! Which activities are your most successful "ice breakers"? Do you have any great "getting to know you activities that you want to share?
