Educators....get ready...get ready...get ready...the students are coming!

___Do you have your "professional attire" moved to the front of your closet?
___Did you create a student friendly, print rich learning environment?
___Are there enough materials for the first day? (pencils, pens, markers, paper)
___Is there a wake up time determined so you can arrive to your site early?
___Did you arrange your furniture the way that best suits you and student learning?
___Have you created lesson plans for each of your subject areas?
___Did you secure a roster of your students along with their information?
___Do you have the necessary password and technology to take roll and complete other related responsibilities?
___Did you create a newsletter or letter home to connect with parents?
