Welcome, New Teachers! Starting off your first school year is an exciting, but very scary, time. As you are probably starting to realize, school taught you how to teach, but probably did not prepare you for the classroom. That is why we have written this ebook that contains numerous suggestions, how-tos, and examples to help you transition into your new career.
Let’s begin by looking at the Top Ten Mistakes New Teachers Make.
Top 10 Mistakes New Teachers Make
First year teachers:
- Do not plan for every class
- Are not consistent with the rules and policies posted in the classroom
- Wait until the last minute to gather materials for lesson plans
- Assume students’ background knowledge without properly assessing
- Make unrealistic deadlines for unit plans
- Fail to connect material being taught to the real world
- Fail to try another instructional approach if the first way does not work
- Are afraid to stop teaching and start again
- Do not stick to the rules, polices and procedures established day one and let their classrooms get out of control
- Take on way too much – you can say no to activities and events you might be roped into chaperoning
In this book, we show you how NOT to make the mistakes new teachers make. We offer practical strategies on everything from setting up your classroom and establishing bulletin boards to writing learning based objectives and keeping on top of assessment.
