The First Week of School videos will remain available at:
www.pita.ca/startup-your-class
But first....
These materials were created for new grade 4-7 teachers in BC.
During this Covid19 emergency, I am sharing them to assist parents who have
suddenly become new helper teachers!
----------
Ray Myrtle will help you prepare for the critical first weeks of school.
By utilizing the suggestions in the three workshops,
you will know effective strategies and have a GREAT START to the year,
without being overwhelmed by preparation.
Parents- many strategies are designed for the classroom, but you can adapt
them to your home. For example, set aside pencils and materials in a bin, that your children can get out and put away each day just like in school.
That routine can be like the classroom entry routine. It will help them get ready for learning.
The 33 page 'First Week of School' booklet is coordinated with the video.
Use ACTIVE learning...
Download it, print it out & make notes as you watch.
when you see the
'STOP SIGN' or 'Workers Working'
Stop and 'do something'
Learning is an active process - not passive watching.
Stop and write notes in the booklet as you go, to help you remember. ;-)

Once you have printed the booklet, you can put it in a binder
or put a sheet of stiff paper as a back page so you can carry it
around with you as you teach, as I do in my workshop.
It makes it easier to add notes on the booklet as you teach.- Ray
The blackline masters for the activities in the workshop are in resources
on the myPITA site.
