Back to school can be exciting and stressful, so having back to school activities planned will reduce anxiety.

That first week is about building relationships and getting to know each other before diving into the learning. 

I find the first week of school to be a quick transition from strangers to a community, and I want to squeeze an introduction to routines and procedures in there while trying to make it start to stick. 

Several activities work well as we head into the school year and I cannot wait to share them with you. 

1. Have students determine a word of the year
2. Create a class contract
3. Have students complete an All About Me activity
4. Do a scavenger hunt 
5. Play Would You Rather
6. Have students do an email etiquette lesson
