Question: What Back-to-School Strategy Worked Well for You in August?

Is there a back-to-school strategy that’s worked especially well this year? Share your tips, and read what others have to say.

August 28, 2024

As the school year kicks off, we know you’ve been busy laying the groundwork for a successful year ahead. Whether it’s designing a get-to-know-you activity, arranging your classroom for collaboration, or relying on a back-to-school strategy that’s historically made a difference, we want to hear about it!

The first month is crucial for setting the tone for the rest of the year, and your successes can inspire others. What did you find when you tried that get-to-know-you activity? Did the seating plan work as you expected? Perhaps it's a new approach to your classroom management that clicked with your students.

Sharing your teaching wins can help fellow educators refine their own plans–whether it’s a new idea or a trusted back-to-school strategy you return to every year. Take a moment to reflect on what worked for you this month and share your story in the comments. Let’s celebrate these small victories together to keep the momentum going into the school year.

At Edutopia, we ask questions like this one because we love to hear about what works for you and how your strategies benefit your students. Your insights provide valuable inspiration for others facing the same challenges.
