Orientation Days

Suggestions to ease the impact of organizing the guided orientation days: 

• Put 2-3 students together for each orientation activity;

• Share the organization of activities with other staff members;

• Use a daily planner to chart activities for the student teachers to manage their own activities during the day. This will be particularly appropriate during Weeks 2-3 when the student teachers are more familiar with the school. The schedule could be handed out to student teachers during a morning meeting so that they can self-direct their activities throughout the day.
