What kids do

“It’s your turn to lead morning meeting! Plan each part, practice it and show your teacher before your day.”

Printed on the sheet:

  1. I will lead morning meeting on:
  2. 1. The greeting we will do
  3. How I will explain it
  4. 2. Our share question
  5. 3. The activity or game
  6. 4. The morning message I will write on the board
  7. I practiced the greeting
  8. I have the supplies

Teacher tip

Have the leader practice with you the day before, so they feel ready.

How to use it

  • Model each greeting or game before kids try it.
  • Use the same order each day: greeting, share, activity, message.
  • Keep a stack of copies in a labeled tray so you can grab one without stopping the lesson.

Watch for

Greetings with touch. Always give a no-touch option, like a wave or an air high five.

Talk about it

  • How did it feel to be greeted by name?
  • Why do you think we use this in our classroom?

Take it further

Invite a family member or the principal to join one meeting.

US Letter, prints well in black and white. Free for home and classroom use: print as many copies as you need.
