WHO IS MY TEACHER?

Make a brochure about yourself, your school, and fun activities you have planned for the year and mail it to the children before school begins (or just give it to them the first day).  To make a brochure, fold a sheet of paper into thirds.  On the front section write “Welcome to your name’s Classroom!”  On the left section place a picture of yourself and write some personal information about your family, pets, experience, etc.  On the inside write “We’ll have a great year together…learning to read, experimenting in science, learning math, working on the computer, cooking, taking field trips, singing, creating in art,” and so forth.

All About Me -  Make a book about yourself to read to the children the first day of school.  Include a photograph of yourself as a child, family photos, pictures of pets, favorite foods, hobbies, why you enjoy teaching, etc.  Let one child take the book hom each evening to share with their families.  (What a simple way to build a partnership with your parents!)


Hint!  You might even ask each parent to make a similar book about his child to place in your classroom library.
