  • Give more freedom, and take it away if need be.
  • You will have to try a few things and see what works for you and your students.
  • Be positive.
  • Say out loud to the class (narrate) that you see them, and write their name up on the positive board.
  • Not only will this help reinforce positives with your kids, but it will also help keep you positive.
  • Use body language.
  • Often walking to a student veering off track and just putting your hand on their desk can help.
  • If you do have to say something negative to a student, make sure it’s private (whenever possible).
  • Use routines.
  • When kids know what to expect, they’re better at doing what you want them to do.
  • Seek advice and feedback, try ideas in your class, and try again, try again, try again! Keep trying new things until you figure out what works for you and your students.

    This post gives some great advice to new teachers, particularly how to be consistent, be positive, use body language, and use routines. I hope I can look back to this post during my first year of teaching in order to prevent some of the mistakes I will inevitably make!

    Great resource and something to keep in my back pocket even as I go into level III's next week.

    Anna, I would agree that this resource will be used efficiently in my future classroom. Especially since I will become a new teacher, when I decide to enter the college of education program and have my own classroom soon. Love how it says these are all the right things that you are doing, which makes my confidence as a new future teacher for sure increases. I personally believe that this resource is used specifically for only teachers. It's also very interesting how they have bolded essential components to remember the entire time you are becoming a first teacher. Such as be consistent, be positive, use body language, and use routines. Which the last one I believe is the most important when I comes to not only becoming a great teacher, just as well as to deal with different classroom settings. I am currently not aware of any similar resources to be considered but will not sure to keep my eye out for any that pop out. Overall, I like this resource how it ends with the saying, "Hang in there! And, let us know how you are doing."

    This is a great blog post! I have been working on a blog post that is very similar to this with my own blog. This gave me some great ideas. This blog not only could help a new teacher, it could also help a struggling teacher or a teacher with a particularly challenging group of students this year. Great find!
