Greetings

Greeting students personally creates an immediate connection with each student.

1. Greet each student at the door with “Good morning.”
2. You might want to add a handshake or a high five.
3. If you notice anything specific(such as a hairstyle change or a happy smile), mention it.
4. Morning greetings could also be a job that rotates—a student standing with you to add his or her welcome to classmates.
5. Students could also take turns at the end of the day saying, “Goodbye” or “Have a nice day.”
