What Do You Do On The First Days Of School?

Well, Summer, at least in my part of the world is coming to an end. In 3 weeks our kids will be back in school. Others have either already started or getting ready to start and others will wait until after Labor Day.

Last year around this time I ran a post asking for your tips, tricks, ideas and resources for the first days of school. There were so many cool and neat ideas for starting the school year. I want to do the same thing again this year...with a twist.

Those that know me and have heard me speak I am a big believer in making connections with kids. We as educators can not know how our kids learn if we first do not make connections with them. So what I would like to get is a collection of ways that you guys connect with kids. Is there an activity that you do? Is there a website or piece of tech that you use. How to do you get your school year started.

Below is a Google Survey. Simply fill out the form and then in one week I will publish all the results.
