We haven't even left the break and we're already here, thinking about how to welcome our students and anxious to know which class we'll teach. I organized some suggestions for the 1st day or 1st week of class. Not very different from other suggestions seen around, but each activity, created with the magic touch of each one.
I also selected links suggested in 2011, which can be used in 2012. Just click!… BELOW.

1) TREE OF DREAMS
Represent a tree on brown paper or cardboard; affix it to the panel or wall. At the top of the tree, write a question related to the subject (it could be about environmental issues, rules of coexistence, the school environment etc) which will be dealt with during the bimester, trimester… E.g. were…?
Each child will receive a “tree sheet” to write their dream, the dream is what the child hopes to “happen best” for the subject in question. Then ask each child to place their leaf on the dream tree.
Note: This activity can be resumed during the period in which the subject is being worked on, or at the end of the period so that there is a reflection on what they wanted and what they were able to achieve.
2) FROM CONFUSE TO ORDER
These activities are ideal for the child to realize the need for the organization to perform the activities well. The teacher can, from the children's speech, raise some rules for the organization in the classroom.
Ask the children, all at the same time, to sing a song to their partner next door (this activity will create chaos); then ask a student to sing her song to the class. Children will realize how unpleasant chaos is and how order has meaning.
The teacher will be able to raise with the children other situations experienced where organization is essential.
3) THE LAKE OF MILK
(Awaken in the student the pleasure of working together and the importance of individual action in contributing to the whole. The teacher will be able to talk a little about the work in the series, so that the children understand the importance of the involvement of all for the realization of the same). In a certain place in the East, a king decided to create a different lake for the people of his town. He wanted to create a lake of milk, so he asked each of the residents of the place to bring only 1 cup of milk; with everyone's cooperation, the lake would be filled. The very excited king waited until the next morning to see his milk lake. But such was his surprise the other day, when he saw the lake full of water and not milk. Then, the king consulted his adviser who informed him that the people of the village had the same thought: “In the midst of so many glasses of milk if only mine is water, no one will notice…”
Ask the children: What value did the king's idea lack to complete itself? After the discussion, it is interesting for the students to build something together, such as the classroom panel. The room can be decorated with a cutout that, after being perforated, forms several people holding hands, like a chain.
