GUEST TEACHERS

Valor’s Expectations for Students

LEARNING GOAL

Students will articulate and explore ways to show respect to guests

at Valor

Students will understand that misbehavior with a guest teacher is

serious and could result in a referral.

Students will understand that classes will be recognized when a

guest teacher leaves a good report!

WHAT IS A GUEST

As a class, share out the definition

of the word “Guest.”

In groups have students discuss: How do

adults expect you treat a guest in your

home?

Groups share answers, teacher fills in T-chart on poster or use document

camera, board

If you thought about guest teachers like they

were guests in your home how would you treat

them?

MORE DISCUSSION

How would you welcome them into

the classroom?

If you don’t know who they

are, how would you talk to them?

How would you help them feel

comfortable during their day?

What are the ways you could treat a

guest teacher better than your regular

teacher? Why?
