It’s hard to believe it’s only the beginning of August and I’m already done with Meet and Greet, the first week of school, AND Open House! Wow! I wanted to share what I do for Meet and Greet and Open House!
At my school, we begin the year with Meet and Greet during pre-planning as an informal event for our students and families to meet the teacher! Like I said, very informal! As a new teacher I used to stress TONS about this event and wanted my room to be absolutely perfect and LOTS and LOTS of information to send home with parents. Now, I realize that doesn’t have to be the case! Less is more! I mean, my room is pretty much ready- but I don’t have that much on my walls and I don’t send a ton of information home!
I’ve tried many different options for this event over the last ten years, and this year I used a super simple checklist that families grabbed when they walked in my room and I LOVED it! Very simple and easy to use! I placed all the signs in clear sign holders (affiliate link) and I loved how easy it was to just slide papers in them!
I had everything my families needed on students’ desks. Each year I copy the pages that parents need to complete on colored Astrobrights paper (affiliate link) and the few information pages that they can take home on white paper. This year, I added some post-it notes on the top to make this even easier! You can grab my free template here and just type your message in the box!
I always like leaving a little treat for my students! You can see 20 different ideas for Beginning of the Year student gift ideas here!
After the parents completed the paperwork, they sorted the large supplies into the tubs at the front of my room. This really helps save me A TON of time during the first week of school! I do have students keep some of their supplies in their desks, like their pencil boxes and composition books!
Afterwards, our students and families were invited to use our {photobooth} and take a picture! I absoltuely LOVE using this DIY photobooth in my classroom throughout the year. I use a 60 x102 sequin tablecloth (affiliate link) for the background and they are perfect! They come in tons of different colors and are very inexpensive!
And that’s it for Meet and Greet! Super simple! Next up is Open House!
Open House is a more formal event that is held in the evening and includes a presentation that my co-teacher and I present to our students’ families to explain our classroom and curriculum! I find that it’s much easier for me to have a PowerPoint presentation to guide me through everything I need to say! Here’s a preview of some of the slides in my presentation!
I always have some type of refreshments or treats for parents that attend Open House. For the last couple of years, we’ve just put water bottles and small treats out! I really feel like this adds to the presentation! You can see I reused the sequin tablecloth from Meet and Greet!
If you are interested in the Back to School Forms, you can grab them here!
And you can grab the editable Open House Presentation and corresponding signs, here!
I hope you have an AMAZING start to your year!!!

Hello, I am interested in your printables for the table with snacks/drinks for parents during open house/meetings but when I click on the picture it only gives me a larger picture. I am unable to open the link. Could you please repost the link for me?
