As a New Teacher it’s important to prepare way before the school year starts. You never know the group of kids you’re going to get, school environment, the hours can be long and daunting as well. Spend some time getting yourself together before even beginning and it will make your life so much easier. This is for any grade level teacher whether you’re Elementary, Middle or High School. Check out the article…

It’s the vibe for me. You never know how much you impact a student. So shine your light on them and keep them coming back for more. #teachersofinstagram #ritapiersontedtalk #fornewteachers #teachers #teachersofig #teachersgonnapray #newteachers #newteacherstruggles #helpateacherout #helpateacher #lendahandtoateacher #teachernewbie #newteacher #firstyearteacher #firstyearteachers #firstyearteacheradvice #firstyearteachersadvice #firstyearteacherfollowloop #iamateacher #summerteacherfun #iamateacherhearmeroar #virtuallearning #virtualteaching #prayfornewteachers https://www.instagram.com/p/CNEWnHZM797/?igshid=1lbfsxeuq88lm

We are ready for Remote Learning! Going to make the best of it know matter what.

Whew. As an educator, I guess it doesn’t dawn on you that it may be awhile before I see my classroom again due to the crisis going on in our world. Snippets of each area, but a complete overview and a video at the end. Sounds like I’m out of breath, but I wasn’t!! Just walked all the way down the hall and the idea came to me!!! 😩😂🥰 Just talking and walking, should’ve waited, but this is what I captured! #ilovebeinganeducator Blessings to you all during this time...🙏🏽 #fornewteachers #newteachers #newteacherstruggles #helpateacherout #helpateacher #lendahandtoateacher #teachernewbie #newteacher #firstyearteacher #firstyearteachers #firstyearteacheradvice #firstyearteachersadvice #firstyearteacherfollowloop #iamateacher #iamateacherhearmeroar https://www.instagram.com/p/B95ViD7hD8l/?igshid=tmtolxemj4zw

Back at it again! Virtual learning as a kindergarten student can be overwhelming, but as parents we can make the difference and help them remain calm. Create a schedule that works for your Kinder even if it’s not the same school schedule. When COVID19 sent us home from school, I was adamant about keeping the same school schedule. As an educator myself I had to realize that this learning is different than my daughter seeing her teacher face-to-face everyday and she misses her so much. The sadness in her face made the struggle all to real. She says the Zoom meetings aren’t enough and that she wants to see her teacher again and not online. So, we changed up, pushed back her time, switch off helping her learn, and give her breaks. After her daily meetings with her teacher she’s so sad, so we have to help her cope with that... I say this to say, do what works best for your child, but ensure they do their work. Blessings to all educators during this time. #teachertribe #fornewteachers #virtuallearning #teachersgonnateach #teachersgonnalearn https://www.instagram.com/p/B_N0NnoBhNX/?igshid=7foqqxbo1fc0

As hard as it may seem New Teachers...NEVER GIVE UP. You chose this profession for a reason, and although it may not seem clear right now, you can make it. One of our new teachers had the principal show up in her class today, and rattled her. Some new teachers don’t want to bother others for help, but utilize your team as often as possible. When they stop supporting you, reach out to others for help. Don’t just fall through the cracks. There are too many resources available to help you. You got this...Signed Super Teacher Blog

Teacher Tip #28- FOCUS The road may seem long as well as your days, but go in with a clear mind about what you wish to accomplish each and every day. I’ve learned that what you put in the atmosphere you get back. If you, get out of bed late, focus, running late to work, focus, stuck in traffic, focus, late to your door, and so much more...just focus. As soon as you give the negative a little bit of life, then your day will go awry. However, if you FOCUS, and bring it all into perspective then you will never lose your cool. Trust me, it will be ok because tomorrow is a new day. I have been there, and it’s not a good feeling. This is why I help the New Teacher on our team make it through, show her the way so her days can be easy. Keep your eyes FOCUSED on what matters.

Teacher Tip #29 - Celebrate your students smallest accomplishments. I’m no expert, I just know that my first couple of years teaching, I felt many emotions. I was happy, nervous, sad, felt I didn’t know what I was doing sometimes. Hopefully these tips will help someone you as you begin your new journey of teaching. Let them know that even if it may wrong that you’re proud of their work. Even the smallest thing is a big deal sometimes to a student. Celebrate even when you see the answer isn’t right, and show them how to fix their answer. Small things matter!! #fornewteachers #newteachers #newteacherstruggles #helpateacherout #helpateacher #lendahandtoateacher #teachernewbie #newteacher #firstyearteacher #firstyearteachers #firstyearteacheradvice #firstyearteachersadvice #firstyearteacherfollowloop https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzta3v_BefH/?igshid=16pa31h40nzd

New Teacher, You didn’t think you’d make it through the year...I know, but you did it!!! Now you know how to do what it takes to make it through each day, it will get better every year, I promise. Just be a beacon of light for the next new teacher you meet, encourage, support, and follow up with them because they will need your help. Congratulations on making it through the hardest year you will have as a teacher! #fornewteachers #teach #teachers #teaching #superteachers #helpateacherout #iloveteaching #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #newteachers #superteacher #iteachwhatsyoursuperpower #iteach #iteachcte https://www.instagram.com/p/ByO4wySBgaw/?igshid=bvbjqe3nt9a6

No matter what, remember you make a difference each day in one of your students lives. #teachersofinstagram #teacher #teachersfollowteachers #teachersfollowingteachers #fornewteachers #superteacher #iteachwhatsyoursuperpower https://www.instagram.com/p/BxEIBVuhEPH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qqize1jriihj

We rally for RESPECT. I’m no bully, no thug, no babysitter, and all teachers want is respect. I am a Daughter, Sister, Mother (who is teaching my children about this world), I signed up for this, but not to be poor and working through the middle of the night, grading papers, working a second job and tying to stay woke for my family. I love what I do, but pay us our worth. More than 30,000 people came! That's insane! So proud of our teachers! Let's hope NC Teachers made an impact today and legislators actually does something to help teachers and students.

Teacher, Teacher...YOU are Unforgettable 🙌🏼🙌🏽

The time is winding down til the end of your year New Teachers!! Woohoo! You have almost made it through the hardest year you’ll have, it will forever be unforgettable, always be memorable, but most of all impressionable. You are the shining star in some little persons day. Their one constant each and everyday, and although they drive you crazy on a daily basis, you will always remember that one kid. They’re gonna miss you I promise, but what you have imparted to them, whether big or small....they will always ❤️ you!

My reaction when students come into class the last week of school and ask “What are we doing today?”

Me: What?

Throwing out some tools you can use...

Out of the mouths of children. We have to be careful how we are making our students feel. Your words hurt sometimes and could impact a student’s life. As a Golden Rule....Be quick to think and slow to Speak. Signed Super Teacher
