Which Classroom Procedures Should You Teach at The Beginning of the School Year?

As veteran teachers, the Teach Starter team unanimously agrees that having a solid system of classroom procedures in place from the first day of school can make or break a school year. Your new students must know what to do, where to go, and how to go about their day in the classroom. Don’t you wish there were an easy way to figure out which procedures to teach and a system for tracking which routines you still need to work on? 

If you said yes, then wish no more! We’ve put together the perfect checklist and tracking system to help you decide and track your beginning-of-year classroom procedures and routines!

Remembering To Teach Even the Smallest Procedures Helps!

We all know there are regular routines that students get from the start, for example, raising their hands to speak, asking to use the restroom, using classroom supplies, etc. But sometimes, there are small routines that, when not taught, can seriously derail a lesson or a school day! That’s why we’ve put together a classroom routines and procedures checklist to help you keep track of those little things that sometimes get forgotten in the busy days at the start of the year.

This printable resource includes both a standard checklist and a tracking sheet to help you mark off when a procedure is modelled, whether you documented it with a photo and whether you completed instruction. It’s the perfect way to start your school year!
