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 am excited to try this out with my students. I think it is really important to have a positive interaction with all students as then enter the classroom. This will help build our classroom community as well as develop a positive self esteem in my students.
