This has been one of the busiest weeks of my life! I started my new teacher professional development on Monday and have been going nonstop all week. I feel so behind in bloggy land. I will be catching up tonight! I can’t Meet the Teacher is Thursday night! I am so excited. Here are some of my preparations:
I ordered this poster from Vistaprint. I will put this easel outside of my room with some balloons tied to it.
I put together a little Pinterest inspired Meet the Teacher Night Scavenger Hunt. I really hope it will be helpful for helping parents know what to do!
The first thing I want parents to do is make a name tag. I found these name tags for 88 cents at Walmart! Woo hoo!
At each child’s desk I will have a student information form and a volunteer form. I put these bins at the back of my room for parents to turn everything into me.
I made this little board to ask for extra supplies we need. Some of the things I asked for include: Lysol wipes, snacks, rechargeable batteries for our Leapsters, white card stock and hand sanitizer.
On my white board I have little magnets with my contact information. I ordered them through Vistaprint too. They are really cute! I just blacked out all of my information to post. I included the school phone number and my conference time too!
I put together these little envelopes to send home with each child. Inside is a little poem to read the night before school starts to ease nerves and some “ready confetti.” I just attached the Skittles for fun! I found this great idea HERE.
Now I just have to add my kiddos names to everything!
I hope everyone had a great weekend. Enjoy your evening! : )

So, So cute! I'm shocked you already know your planning time! I was going to order some magnets for Meet the Teacher night, but I decided against it b/c I don't know my planning time yet. I think I'm going to do a "wish" tree that is similar to your "step right up".

Your parent night ideas are fabulous and 100% engaging! You’re so smart to create magnets for your contact information…the parents are going to love this. I teach Early Childhood Education classes at the college level and I can’t wait to share your site with students! I hope you have a chance to visit my new blog “Granny Goes to School”.
