Weekly Staff Letter
August 19th - August 24th
Tips for the first day back and as we progress through the first week...
2. Use whole group time to review SOP's and expectations: This reminder may be the MOST vital. Take your time when reviewing your classroom rules and expectations with your students. Even if you THINK your students do not need the time to review your rules, I urge you to do it anyways. Even if your students seem calm and focused on that first day back, reviewing and practicing routines and procedures will never hurt your classroom culture. It can only help!
