Last Tuesday we started school. Tonight is our Back to School Night. It is nice to have BTS night so close to the beginning of the school year because I can communicate classroom expectations with parents early on in the year. The not so nice thing about having BTS night this soon is that I haven't had a chance to do to many "cutesy" things with the kids to show off tonight. I have been too occupied with behavior management and individual assessments to get anything done for BTS. I think it will be ok but it just feels strange!
My BTS time tonight is from 7:05 - 7:20. I am curious as to how many of my 20 kids will be represented tonight. It varies so much from year to year. I am also a bit nervous about my presentation. I am not at all intimidated by the parents but I have never, ever done a whole class presentation to parents before. We have always had "drop in" BTS in the past. I ended up giving my BTS spiel about 15 times each night. This year, we have a new plan of attack by having all grade levels assigned to a 20 minute time frame to present. I do not know how I am supposed to share all of the information I need to share in this time frame. To make matters worse, I need to do it in 2 languages. Out of my 20 students, only 2 have English speaking only parents. I have to do my presentaion in English first though and then in Spanish. ¿Qué hago?
Tonight should be interesting...

I'm already dreading my back to school night. I have so many things I want to cover in such a short amount of time. And I always feel like I'm overwhelming the parents... too much info at once, you know? Oh well. Hope things went well at your B2S night!
