The first day of class is very important in setting the pace for the term.  Learning the students names and introductions are very vital to make the student feel comfortable in class.   

Introducing yourself, humanizing yourself and your studen, taking the time to develop a plan and implement that plan into action is important in any classroom and the classroom you plan to teach. 

 

I feel like you should always greet your student and everyone around with a smile. Even if you may be having a bad day it still shows that you are there for those students. 

I will better able to conduct a first-class meeting with introductions and a firm plan to learn the student's names quickly.

Setting the stage for whatto come in the course is important, but I believe that it is equally important the the faculty member begins to sow the seds of getting to know his/her students and that the student are at ease. many students are apprehensive on the 1st day of class and showing that you have an intest in them as a person can go along way to ensuring they get off on the right foot.
