Resetting Routines with Learn360: Tips for Teachers

January 6, 2022
Teacher with students settling into a new classroom routine

The elf on the shelf has returned to his home in the North, and your students have returned to the classroom. Some are well-rested, some are restless, and everyone seems to have forgotten the daily routines of the classroom—including you. The new year is the perfect time to reset procedures and routines in your classroom. Consider incorporating Learn360 into your classroom routines.

Check out some of our favorite tips and tricks:

  1. As a teacher, you know the school day begins the second students enter the classroom. Set the tone for the day by playing some light piano music as the class enters. We recommend Good Morning Sweetheart (Item #98964; available in the U.S. and Canada)
  2. Consider one of our January worksheets as your morning work this month. Teach (and learn!) about Martin Luther King Jr. with Martin Luther King Jr. worksheets from The Mailbox® (Item #211764; available worldwide) and get your bulletin boards ready for the new year.
  3. Start a morning class poll on the board. Would you rather watch Odd Squad (Item #240035; available in the U.S. and Canada) or Cat in the Hat (Item #66530; available in the U.S. and Canada) during snack time today? Data analysis and Learn360 content all in one simple morning routine.The Cat in the Hat, available from Learn360
  4. Keep your classroom sparkling. Use one of our audio songs to play every time you need the classroom cleaned. We recommend It’s Time to Clean Up (Item #98673; available in the U.S. and Canada).
  5. Grow with gratitude this new year. Set aside time after recess to practice mindfulness. Challenge your students to hear all the different sounds in Nature Sounds (Item #98970; available in the U.S. and Canada).
