Here is what teachers are saying about this Morning Greeting Choices Resource:
“This resource is a great classroom and community builder. I love saying good morning to my students and giving them the opportunity to change the way they say hello. The socially distant choices are great to give students who are still not ready for physical interactions. This resource also allows me to learn my students’ personalities and how they are feeling each morning.”
“This is a very engaging and exciting way for students to say hello in the mornings.”
“I love, love, love this! It was so easy to print and laminate and BOOM- done. I love that it comes with so many different options. Great resource and perfect for primary!”

I used these to go along with my Frog Street Curriculum for my students when they come into the classroom. It was so easy to print, display, and use. Thank you for making this resource easy and accessible.

Very cute resource and it’s nice that there are options. My students are really happy to choose how they want to say good morning each day. Sometimes you don’t want a hug or want to talk, right? So this gives them a friendly way to choose how we start off our day, but they’re still greeting me and our classroom feels welcoming.

We use this every morning before we enter the classroom. Some students want to use it every SINGLE time we enter the room 🙂 It is a great way to gauge each child’s mood and make a connection before we even enter the room. Thanks!

These greetings help us begin our day right at the front door! I allow my students to choose their greeting at the door before entering in the classroom. So fun!
