Begin the Year With an Investigate the Teacher Activity

Start the school year with a fun twist using our Investigate the Teacher Activity! This clever first-day task transforms your classroom into a scene for discovery as students observe clues around the room to learn more about their teacher. From books on the shelf to décor and favourite supplies, students become detectives, piecing together fun facts to draw conclusions about their new teacher and school year. This Investigate the Teacher Activity is sure to be a load of fun!

Observe, Think, and Reflect To Investigate the Teacher

Instead of telling students everything about yourself, let them investigate the teacher through this engaging activity! Students will explore their new classroom, noticing items that reflect their teacher’s interests, habits, and teaching style. Then, they’ll complete a worksheet to record observations and draw conclusions. This investigate the teacher task encourages critical thinking while setting a tone of respect and curiosity in your classroom from day one.
