80 Morning Meeting Ideas for Grades K-2

Even after 27 yrs. In education there is always room to change things up and grow!! After researching online on Amazon and reading LOTS of reviews, I purchased this book, "Morning Meetings", and ",The First 6 Weeks of School" just to follow it along, implementing morning mtgs in the planning of the day. THEN, I found a digital M.M. purchase on a teacher site so I wldnt have to write so much. Plus it can make it an interactive activity implementing all of the things I learned in these books. It displays right on the w.b.You cld do that yourself, but I just thought I'd suggest it so maybe you cld either think of starting to build M.M. ideas on PowerPoint slides that area editable and cld be reused again and again, it look to purchase some already done. There cld already be something on Amazon but I never looked.Good luck shaping your new classroom....I'm problem going to do mine 3-4 days a week. Right now I cant seem to fit very many closing circles in, but I'm working on it! Total game changer from last year, btw....so happy!!

Highly recommend this book for grades K-2 to kick start your morning meeting routine. Great greeting ideas!

I love this book for an easy go to of greetings, prompts for sharing, and activities for the class. When I have little planning time, but still want all that Morning Meeting offers for my students, I just grab the book and teach it. It's also helped expand my thinking to new ideas!

Useful ideas.

Excellent resource. I liked it so much, I asked my principal to buy a copy for the other K-2 teachers in our building! Easy activities to use and the book is a quick resource. The writing and layout of the book is made for teachers that don't have the time to read through page after page to get to the activity. One activity per page and those activities that need materials, use materials that are readily available in the classroom. Love it!

Didn't end up using this book as much as I thought I would, but it gave me a starting point for the year. My kids BEG me to do morning meetings and I can tell a difference from last year's class to this year's and the relationships I've been able to build through morning meetings. At the start of the year, we did morning meeting every day to get to know each other. Now we just do it every friday. The important thing is to set up rules for morning meeting and really stick to them. If my students misbehave, then they lose their MM privilege for the following week. They self-police and keep each other in check because they don't want to skip a whole week without MM.

The ideas in this book provided me with a great way to start my morning meetings for several years. I teach 2nd grade and some of the songs/chants at the beginning of the book seemed like they might be geared for younger students, but most of my 2nd graders loved them. They do not have enough of this at home anymore!

I’m finding this to be the most helpful product I’ve purchased for responsive classroom! It’s totally worth every penny!

Excellent book of ideas to go along with the book "The First Six Weeks of School" I can't wait to start using it.

Straightforward, lovely ideas

It was worth the money.
