Learn All Students' Names as Early as Possible
We need to break down the bonds of
anonymity that surround our students.
We need to learn
their names as early as possible. It shows respect.
An easy technique of remembering names that I have used is by using the name in class.
If you see a student in the hall, stop them and say something to the effect, "I don't remember your name but aren't you in one of my classes?"
If they acknowledge, ask her what his or her name is.
It will help you remember it.
Take pictures of your students and post them on a board and see if you (and your students) can identify who they are.
Post their names below the picture so that other students can easily identify one another.
(It also makes a terrific memento for you to remind you about who you have taught.)
