Today is the last week of Teacher Week 13' and the theme is teacher tips and tricks. Before I begin my post, I want to say that I have had so much fun this week not only sharing my ideas, but more importantly learning from all of you! There are so many inspiring teachers in this bloggin' world of ours, and I feel so blessed to be a part of it all!
That being said, this week one of my colleagues and I are hosting another meeting for our new teachers. We put our brains together to develop this "First Week Checklist" (a tip sheet of sorts) that we plan on giving them as a reminder of the key things that should be getting done before/during the first week of school! I thought I'd share it with you all today as it may even have some good reminders for you vet teachers as well! It should be pretty universal, although a few dates, specific names of what you call things may be different - but you get the idea :)!
