New Teachers - 33 Ways to Start the Year

33 WAYS TO START THE
YEAR OFF RIGHT!

COMMUNICATE WITH PARENTS If you teach primary grades, send a note home early informing parents that you need time to get to know pupils before you can comment on them. Let them know that you are available, however, and list the process and times for getting in touch with you. For other parents, you might want to introduce yourself and include your policy on homework.	KNOW YOUR RIGHTS Read or re-read your contract so that you will know your rights.
PLAN LESSONS Develop your lessons on the basis of what you think your students need to know and then determine the best way of teaching those things.	SUPPORT YOUR ASSOCIATION Join your local education association for the moral support of people who understand the difficulty of your job.
