Daily Agenda Slides for Middle School

Daily Agenda Slides

Have you ever used daily agenda slides before? Before using digital agenda slides, we used to handwrite our daily agendas on our whiteboards each morning. Once we switched to digital slides, we realized handwriting the agenda was such a waste of time, not to mention that we couldn’t refer back to agendas from the previous year. With digital agenda slide templates, you have endless design options that can be used however works best for you! In this post, we’ll discuss the benefits of using digital daily agendas, how to use them, and examples of how we’ve set them up.

Saving Time in the Classroom

Time is so precious in teaching, and that’s where digital agenda slides can be extremely helpful. You can prepare your agenda slides ahead of time, such as when you are lesson planning each week. They’re also great to refer back to when trying to remember old agendas from previous units or the year prior. It allows you to have an organized, written record with exact dates of lessons you taught. They’re helpful for your students as well, as you’re able to not only project it easily for the whole class, but also post the slides on Google Classroom! With agenda slides, you can prep them whenever, wherever, and you’ll always be able to edit them with ease.

Using Agenda Slide Templates

When it comes to using agenda slides, there are endless designs and ways to set them up, making them very flexible to fit your specific needs! They can be used for weekly overviews or daily tasks, such as bell ringers, announcements, reminders, etc. Because they are digital, you can edit the text as needed and change up the templates you want to use.  Once you’ve decided how you want to set up your agenda, you can make copies of each slideshow for future reference. If you’re interested in learning more about how to use daily agenda slides, you can watch the corresponding video to this post here.

Agenda Slides by Theme

Depending on the look you have for your classroom, you may want to have agenda templates that match.  If you’re looking for agenda slides that match your classroom, we’ve created many different themed templates! There are multiple themes to choose from, so you might even choose to change them up throughout the year.

⁣
This first day activity is a great combination of a traditional ice breaker and an introduction to your social studies course content, so it was always our favorite way to start the year! One of my favorite parts about it was having a chance to have that first one-on-one conversation with each student. ⁣

Hello hello! It's been a long time since our last Hello hello! It's been a long time since our last post, but we are excited to be back and look forward to sharing more teaching ideas this year! It is also exciting to see many new faces here! Welcome! ⁣
⁣
Today we figured it was fitting to share some of our new printable welcome banners. We have specific sets for Ancient Civilizations, U.S. History, Geography, and many other designs that are linked in our bio. ⁣
⁣
I didn't even realize printable welcome banners were a thing early in my teaching career...I remember buying stencil letters, some thick permanent markers, and coloring in the letters I wanted by hand. It was tedious and not the best use of my time. This sounds like a first year of teaching mistake, but this was year 4 😂⁣
⁣
Don't make the same mistakes that I did! These are so much faster, and you can edit them to spell anything you want!
Happy New Year! We hope you have had an excellent Happy New Year! We hope you have had an excellent winter break so far and that your 2022 is off to a good start!⁣
⁣
We also want to thank you for all of your support of us at Mr and Mrs Social Studies! Creating resources for you to use in your classrooms is such a privilege. We love getting to nerd out and research different historical topics and eras, while also creating new templates and activities! ⁣
⁣
We are pleased to report that we added 133 new resources to our store in 2021 and were able to donate over $10,000 to educational and social justice organizations and non-profits, as part of our initiative where we donate 10% of our TPT profits every month.⁣
⁣
We have a lot of new resources and helpful content planned for this year, so stay tuned! Thank you again!
While the concept of a morning routine or evening While the concept of a morning routine or evening routine might already be something you are doing, you may be able to establish some time-saving routines during your school day! ⁣
⁣
For example, you might set a routine for your plan period, such as replying to emails, making copies, checking your teacher mailbox, followed up by prepping your agenda for the next day. Alternatively, you might schedule routines that only happen on certain days of the week. For instance, maybe Tuesday and Thursday could be grading days, and you don’t even think to check or update grades on the other days of the week. ⁣
⁣
While a routine is still new, it might be helpful to put a little reminder about it on a post-it note or set a reminder on your device until it becomes habitual!
After the time change, it’s always a bummer how After the time change, it’s always a bummer how quickly it gets dark outside. The colder weather certainly does not help either. However, we have found that putting up some fairy lights in a central part of the home makes a huge difference in our mood. It makes our home feel much more warm and almost magical, and we’ll keep the lights on from dusk until we go to bed. If you are struggling with this too, we highly recommend trying it!
