Student's Sign-in and Sign-out Display

If you are looking for a way that all students will feel a part of the classroom environment upon entering and leaving the school here’s an idea for you to incorporate sign-in and out.  If possible, place an easel outside your entrance door or post on wall next to door where the students will place their Velcro name tag under appropriate column (school/home).  Review the student’s information form to add primary language spoken in home to incorporate on the display.  If English only it is a good idea to add another to expose students to different language as well.

Below are examples from NC pre-k license teachers who created sign-in and sign-out boards.  The pictures shown can be modified by adding a specific sticker next to student’s name that’s only assigned to him/her.  NOTE:  the sticker will be used inside the classroom to title specific materials related to him/her like cubby, center name tag and so forth.  After the student has learnt his/her name on the review side have only the first name written and if needed can use the reverse side and see the sticker for recognition.  

If you have other methods to have student’s sign-in and sign-out please share.  Knowledge is powerful.
