Come on and join in and share your WIT and WISDOM from all the years you have been a teacher. We all started at some point and should probably send a "sympathy" card to the very first class we ever had. So share some of your fabulous wisdom and join the fun!
Thank you so much for this linky party! As a first-year teacher this upcoming school year, I really appreciate the opportunity to take in all of the wisdom the blogging community has to offer!
Thanks for posting this! I'm going to be a first year teacher this upcoming school year too so it's really great to hear from teachers who have some experience! Liz
Thank you for having this linky party. I'm bookmarking all the wonderful blogs that link up! This was a great idea. I hope more people add by the end of the day!
I love this LINKY idea! I can't wait to read them all :) I'm also glad this led me to discovering your blog! I don't know how I haven't read it before. Craziness ~ I'm your newest follower!
This is so helpful! Thank you so much! I just graduated and will be starting with my first class in the fall. I love that you came up with with this great linky!
Just linked up - but did not include the most important advice - go to the bathroom 3 minutes before the bell rings - always have an empty bladder when the bell rings!
Thanks for doing such a great linky! I will be a first year 2nd grade teacher this year and love knowing what the expert teachers have to say for those of us who are just beginning our journey! I am reading every single post in the link up because I know that each one will have very thoughtful and important advice for me to carry with me as I begin my new year! Thanks again!
After a decade of teaching, I still feel like I learn something new each year. My advice for first year teachers is simple. First, ask questions; never assume. If you don't know the answer to something, then ask. It is the same advice a teacher would give a student and it works just as well for newbies. Also, try not to stress over things that didn't work out as planned because you can always trash an activity or revamp it to make it better next time. Lastly, treat each child as if she/he were your own, and don't allow parents or other teachers to intimidate you! BTW....take bathroom breaks any chance you get....lol
Thank you for these suggestions for my student teaching for fall! I am going to look at all of the blogs and try to learn from them! I put your button link on my new student teaching blog! If any of the bloggers would like to give me suggestions or tips for my fall student teaching experience please stop by my blog http://studentteachermstiffanyhedrick.blogspot.com/
