While aimed at the English language classroom, the book is useful to any teacher. Activities include getting to know you games, creative ways to do needs evaluation, as well as methods of setting your expectations for the class on day one. The first day of school is the most important and the busiest. It's also the hardest because you don't know your students yet. You don't know what they like and what their interests are. Heck, you don't even know their names  And yet, it's your job to walk into a room full of strangers and turn it into a community. You need to set the rules and convey your expectations. You need to find out their needs and expectations. You need to start building a class community. You need to learn their names  With 50 Activities for the First Day of School, you can walk in to any classroom and start off right foot with no preparation. These fun and engaging activities will help you learn students' names, build rapport, assess their knowledge, introduce language, and establish the class rules. Your students will walk away having had a fun first class and you will walk away ready to tackle the rest of the term. All of these activities are all classroom-tested and teacher-approved. And all are presented with clear instructions and ideas to adapt or vary the activities to your students, your teaching style and your classroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Walton Burns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0997762810\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780997762815\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alphabet Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.15d","brand":"Walton Burns","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43927258824959,"sku":"9780997762815","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_5196e946-9c91-47e9-9d46-51cead4450b9.jpg?v=1681087791","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/50-activities-for-the-first-walton-burns-9780997762815","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
