Happy Thursday, today I’m teaming up with the I Teach K-2
Blog Hop. It is also Day 4 of my week of Tips and Freebies. I have shared this tip several times before
but it is one of my favorite tips and time savers. It is worth sharing again,
especially if you are a brand new teacher.
On the first day of school have
your name-tags ready and placed outside your classroom
door. Don’t wait and try to put them on inside the
classroom. Let the parents do the work for you. I place a
pocket chart outside my door holding all of
my name-tag lanyards. There is a note that explains exactly
what to do. This way when the students enter my
classroom I am able to greet each student by their first name. “Good
morning Mary, Welcome, it’s so nice to meet you”. Being able to “know”
their names also helps to calm some of their fears.
***Have extra
blank name-tags for last minute student enrollments
Now for my Freebie. I've made up these name-tags that will fit into the plastic lanyard badges. You can buy these at Walmart in the office supply section. Just click the picture below.

I love the idea of having the students put the name cards on before entering the classroom. Thanks for sharing!
