Description

. The way you begin the school year will affect everything that occurs in your classroom and with your colleagues for the remainder of the year—and beyond. When you were student teaching, your cooperating teacher had already set the stage for you. But now starting the school year is your responsibility. Therefore, it is important to dedicate time and energy to this important start. This chapter provides great ideas to help get you started. This sample chapter also includes the Table of Contents, Introduction, and Index.

Customer Reviews
Fantastic Advice from Ms. Mentor!
  Reviewed by: Maureen Stover (Fayetteville, NC) on August 8, 2012
  This book chapter from Rise and Shine contains excellent advice for a successful first week of school. This chapter not only provides advice, but also offers excellent real life scenarios to demonstrate how to put the advice into practice. This is an excellent chapter for all teachers to read prior to the first week of a new school year. I'm looking forward to putting several of these ideas into practice as the new year begins!

Solid advice for the starting teacher....
  Reviewed by: Susan German (Hallsville, MO) on May 28, 2012
  Written with the Ms. Mentor columns, The First Week of School gives solid, professional advice to starting teachers. There are questions that are highlighted and then a conversational style answer follows. The questions are the types of questions every new teacher has. I would even suggest this as a review for the more experienced teacher. Sometimes we forget what we used to know.
