I’ll admit it: as a student, I loathed math and science. In fact, one of the determining factors in selecting my college major was how little math and science was required to get my degree. I also figured that I had enough trouble solving my own problems as a college freshman without having to solve x’s problems, too. Besides, as an aspiring professional violinist, I was engrossed in practicing music, oblivious to the fact that math, science, and music significantly overlap. In my sage adulthood, I now realize that I didn’t hate math and science – I just hated how it was taught to me.

Welcome to August, Teachers! With the first day of school right around the corner, you are likely making preparations for the lesson plan that will kick-off your entire school year. The first day of school is more about planning than it is about teaching, and it’s particularly important to spend some time introducing your subject and getting to know your students. Depending on your subject and age group, consider using some of these activities to help start your year off right.
