Hello! Today I am linking up with Chrissie from the Undercover Classroom. We are sharing tried and true ideas for the first day of school. Head to the link-up to get lots of new ideas for your first day of school.
I am currently working on getting a bunch of my first day activities up on TPT, so hopefully I get get those up there within the next week or two. I decided to post my first day schedule so you can see exactly what I do. The first day is a LOT of procedures and routines. Let me know if you have questions about any of the things I do!
When I was teaching, I got pretty much all of the books for my class library from garage sales. You can find KILLER deals. One year I found The Recess Queen. This is such a great story to help go over recess rules and appropriate behavior with your class. In my pack I am going to include a "Who, What, When, Where, How, Why" retelling page, a page where you can write your own recess rules as a class, a page for students to write ideas of what to do when someone is mean or bossy, and many more. It will be a great resource! Here is a sneak peek at one of the pages from my Recess Queen pack:
If you want to be notified when this pack is available, follow my store on TPT by clicking the picture above and then clicking "follow" on my page.
***UPDATE*** This unit is now available! Click here to see it.
Good luck with back to school! Hopefully some of my ideas will be helpful to you!
