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!”

This resource is an excellent way to build relationships with students. At the beginning of the school year, my class bonded as we looked at all the choices for greeting each other in the morning and created a choice board together for the hallway. My students love choosing the greeting they are most comfortable with each day. The greetings are fun, colorful, creative, and multicultural! Many of them make us laugh, which is always a fun way to start the day. There is something that fits all my student’s personalities. I highly recommend this resource!

Gave me a lot of new ideas for morning greetings so the kiddos didn’t get bored with the same ones!

Upon entering the music room my students stop at the greeting poster and select one. There have been a few days that I have asked my students to skip the greeting and just come in and sit down quickly so we can get through the entire lesson and they legitimately look disappointed. They love selecting a greeting each day. Some have even resorted to selecting two or three greetings to do.
