Tips of the Trade for New Teachers

The first school bells are ringing in school districts across the country and teachers are welcoming students back to class. With Back to School in full swing, we offer up one of our favorite posts for new teachers. We know that this can be an exciting, energizing and sometimes overwhelming season for everyone -- especially people who are new to our profession. Our post New Teacher? Start Here. can help new teachers along in the days, weeks, and months to come.

If you're a seasoned veteran, consider passing this post along to new colleagues who are joining our ranks. We believe (and we know you do too) that it is part of our professional responsibility to give new teachers the support they need to make sure they are with us for the long haul (and helping new teachers is well, fun and rewarding). To all of the new teachers out there, you've got this.

In the same vein, when kids go back to school, parents head to Back to School Night. Our post entitled Back To School Night: We're All in This Together can help you plan and host a successful Back to School Night, especially if you are new and maybe a little nervous about hosting so many parents.

Wishing you and your students a happy beginning to the 2017-2018 school year,
Corey and Gretchen
