Meet the Teacher Night

Meet the Teacher Night Was A Success!

I had all of my new students show up to meet me.  :) They are just so adorable!  I guess that is one of the perks of having the youngest students in school.  :)

Here's what it looked like: 

The week before I sent out postcards to all of my students that looked like this...

I think they fit my Dr. Seuss theme well. :) 

For the actual night of meet the teacher, I set up some stations for parents and students to visit.  They looked like this...

Station 1:

In these folders I put my information handout with EVERYTHING parents need to know about my class procedures.  Also included was an information sheet about the child and parents for my personal files.  The third thing included was a photo permission slip so I can take photos of my students in class and put them on my class website. :) 

Station 2:

Each student took a scrapbook page to decorate with photos about their family.  This is their first homework assignment.  We will create a class book with everyone's scrapbook page.  This helps me get to know my students a little better. 

Station 3:

Here parents signed in to let me know who came.  They also signed up to receive emails from me and to volunteer in my class. 

Station 4: 

This is where I had my wish list and places to sort school supplies that were brought.

A Gift From the Teacher:  

 Here I had each student take a goody bag and a night before school surprise.  :)

That pretty much sums up what I do for meet the teacher night; it is always so exciting to meet all of my new students and hopefully get them excited for that first day of school!

What kind of things do you do on meet the teacher night?
