## Caption

Getting to know all your students at the top of a school year can be overwhelming. One idea? Ask their families to tell you all about them, in a playful assignment called "In a Million Words or Less."

The Million Words activity originated with teacher Deb Bova on the MiddleWeb site in 2003, but has thousands of variations.
