Surprising My New Students at Their Homes! | "Welcome Walk" VLOG

It’s one of my FAVORITE days of the school year (and students haven’t even started school yet)... our “Welcome Walk”! This is a school tradition where teachers surprise students at their houses so students can find out who their teacher is for the school year ahead! It is such a special and personal experience that I absolutely LOVE! In this vlog, I take you with me as I prepare for Welcome Walk by getting “Meet the Teacher” letters ready, stuff folders with important papers, put together custom keychains for each student, and more. I also share all the details of how we make Welcome Walk work for our families as well as a full explanation of what it looks like for teachers! __________________________________________________________________ 🎥 SUBSCRIBE TO POCKETFUL OF PRIMARY: https://www.youtube.com/pocketfulofprimary?sub_confirmation=1 VLOG PLAYLIST: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzMt-laLU9XwfKSOykTpRq2IGVustA-U8 🍎🛒 CLASSROOM 2025-2026 AMAZON LIST: https://amzn.to/3H8VQEw CHAPTERS: 0:00 Intro 0:38 New team shirts! 1:04 What is “Welcome Walk”? 6:35 What do I say when I knock on the door? 8:00 What do I bring with me? 13:36 How do I wrap up the visit? 13:55 How do I organize the order of students I am visiting? 17:01 What happens when it’s over? 18:50 Outro 4️⃣👕 FOURTH GRADE TEAM SHIRTS: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1764252592/custom-fourth-grade-teacher-shirt?ref=yr_purchases 🍎📝 MEET THE TEACHER LETTER TEMPLATE: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Meet-the-Teacher-Letter-Templates-EDITABLE-3999983 🔑 KEYCHAINS: https://amzn.to/4lrfZ75 🔑💻 KEYCHAIN INSERTS AND TAGS EDITABLE CANVA TEMPLATE: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGNsYr67jE/bp_fmOzFT9me6iFG9nOoSQ/view?utm_content=DAGNsYr67jE&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=publishsharelink&mode=preview 🛒💻 AMAZON WISHLIST PRINTABLE EDITABLE CANVA TEMPLATE: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGu-ihYpvw/wi5xdaRI6JUb9wub9U3j8Q/view?utm_content=DAGu-ihYpvw&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=publishsharelink&mode=preview 🖼️📸 CUSTOM PHOTO FRAME: https://www.vispronet.com/custom-selfie-frame (I got mine in the 29” x 40” size) __________________________________________________________________ 🍏 TEACHERSPAYTEACHERS STORE: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Pocketful-Of-Primary 📖🥇🍎 FIRST CLASS TEACHING BOOK: Amazon - https://amzn.to/4b8C3hp Audible - https://www.audible.com/pd/First-Class-Teaching-Audiobook/B0C3FQVJN2 Audiobooks - https://www.audiobooks.com/audiobook/first-class-teaching-10-lessons-you-dont-learn-in-college/673960 🛒 AMAZON FAVORITES: http://bit.ly/pocketfulofprimarystore 🍎🛒🖤 CLASSROOM AMAZON WISHLIST: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1JLJUE48YFDLO?ref_=wl_share 🍎 POCKETFUL OF PRIMARY MERCHANDISE: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PocketfulofPrimary?ref=search_shop_redirect __________________________________________________________________ Find me on my other social media platforms: INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/pocketfulofprimary FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/PocketfulofPrimary/ PINTEREST: https://www.pinterest.com/pocketfulofprim/ PODCAST: https://teachingonthedouble.com/podcasts/ WEBSITE: www.pocketfulofprimary.com For business inquiries, please contact: pocketfulofprimary@gmail.com __________________________________________________________________ *My description includes referral codes/links that allow me to earn points or credit that can be redeemed for products and/or subscriptions.
