SIGN IN, PLEASE!

Children will develop responsibility and writing skills when you ask them to sign-in each morning.  Remind them that it's important to be at school every day so that they can learn and play with their friends.

What?  white board, dry erase markers  (You can also use a poster and regular markers.)

How?  Explain that you need to know who is at school every day because they are all part of your classroom family.  Ask them to write their name on the board as they enter the classroom to make sure that everyone knows they are present.

More?  Provide name cards to help children who don't know how to write their names.

*Make blank books for students by folding two sheets of paper in half and stapling near the crease.  Children keep these in their cubbies or desks and "sign in" by writing their names in their books.
