Abstract
“What are we going to do TODAY?” (Derrida, 1992d, p. 3). This sounds familiar to teachers. It is a question asked on a daily basis by students and classroom assistants even before they settle down in class. Settling in the class is an essential part of the day. Usually the school day starts off with a school assembly, and then students and their teaching staff settle in their classrooms. This is the focus of this chapter: the settling in during an other school day. Four stories are presented: arriving at school, attending assembly, settling down in the classroom and the hello song.
