This post is just a preview of a video to come but Cindy got me thinking about welcome packets or first day packets at the beginning of the summer. I teach a dual enrollment class for our local university so I decided to pick up some things from the admission office when I was there last week. I thought it would be a great idea to put local university admission brochures in my first day packets. I added a pen and a highlighter and my syllabus for the semester. I also thought about adding my template for my book reviews or papers that are required. I wanted to put more fun things in it. Any ideas? Do you do welcome packets for your classes? I figured it would be helpful for me because everything is already in one place so if a student starts late, I'd just hand them a bag!
Aren't these cute for a candy in the welcome packet?
or these? If I said, "I'm so glad I got smart cookies this year!"
