Classroom Procedures

Classroom Procedures

Classroom Procedures:  This Prezi shown at the beginning of the year introduces students to the procedures and expectations of our classroom.  As we are going through the presentation, students complete a note card telling me a little about themselves as well as this brochure which helps them record the information presented, so they have it to reference throughout the course of our time together.   Teachers:  Make your own version!
