Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Students read a personalized welcome note from their teacher to build a sense of classroom community on the first day of school.
Teaching tips
Fold the double-sided card in half, then fold left to right, before filling in the student's name, teacher's name and the four About-the-Teacher prompts by hand.
Choose the black-and-white version to save on color ink, or the full-color version for a more polished first-day handout.
Use the editable PowerPoint version to write a personal note instead of the pre-written "Dear ___" message.
Give the folded cards to students on the first day of school; when they unfold their card, they get a fun surprise and learn about their new teacher.
Skills covered
Classroom-community building — students receive a personalized note and a short "About the teacher" profile to read on the first day of school.
Card assembly and customization — teachers fold, hand-write, or digitally edit each card using the included black-and-white, color or editable PowerPoint versions.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
