Classroom Management & Discipline Special Times in the Year
Morning Meetings begin with a greeting, which helps to set a friendly and respectful tone for the day. Being greeted by name provides students with a sense of belonging and recognition.
It is important to vary greetings from day to day to prevent students from losing interest or becoming disengaged. As educators, it’s often difficult to find time to gather new greeting ideas, which is why we have compiled a list of eighty Morning Meeting ideas, tips, and tricks for each of the four components of Morning Meeting—greeting, sharing, group activity, and morning message.
