[Seminary-Notes] ==================================== FOR YOUR INFORMATION... ====================================
I think that one of the best things you can do during the weeks before the new Seminary year begins is to visit each of the students in your Seminary class in their home.
If you can meet with them and their parents, it gives you an opportunity to explain the entire Seminary program, to answer their questions, and (especially for new students) to put their minds at ease regarding what you will be doing in Seminary this year.
It also give you an opportunity to help students and parents understand your expectations for Seminary -- attendance, punctuality, scripture mastery, grading, bad weather days, etc.
This topic was more fully addressed in a previous [Seminary-Notes] newsletter. If you have a few moments, I recommend that you read the original newsletter. Here's a link.
It contains ideas, a possible agenda, and suggestions for your student-parent-teacher meetings.
If you don't have enough time to meet with all of your students before the new Seminary year begins, I recommend that you prioritize your students and meet with those who will gain the greatest benefits from such a meeting. Make sure you visit, though, all of your new students. (This is especially helpful if they are the first child in their family to attend Seminary.)
It's a good idea to set these appointments up as far in advance as possible, and then give a reminder prior to the date and time of the actual meeting.
