Modify this free virtual meet the teacher presentation to welcome your families to your classroom.
This is another free distance learning resource from The Curriculum Corner.
Download this free virtual meet the teacher presentation to help you create a presentation that fits your classroom.
We know that many meet the teacher nights will be happening virtually this year. This is disappointing as teachers because we know that parents look forward to getting to see where their children will be learning.
Our hope in creating this free resource was that you would be able to give families a glimpse inside your room from a distance.
Also, schools will have many new guidelines that need to be shared. You can include these in your presentation.
Along with procedures such as daily temperature checks, you can include procedures you will be following to keep the room clean and healthy. Share your disinfecting procedures with parents to offer reassurance.
Ideas for Editing this Virtual Meet the Teacher Presentation
We have included some of our ideas but you will want to modify this PowerPoint to fit your school and classroom.
Add your own photos and modify the text so it will introduce your families to your room.
On the contact page, include the information you are comfortable with. We know handing out your cell phone is one that is a personal decision. If you don’t typically include this, it might be helpful during distance learning.
Not only will this be great for your initial introduction, you can share a copy of your edited presentation for future reference. Simply save the PowerPoint as a PDF for easier sharing.
This resource can also be shared with new students you might get throughout the year. Simply send the PDF version as an introduction.
You can download this free PowerPoint here:
You will need the following two, free fonts to edit the presentation:
KG Miss Kindergarten and KG Blank Space
