So many of you are gearing up to go back to school. So in today's podcast episode, I want to talk to you about the five things that you should avoid doing during the first month of kindergarten. These are great lessons for teachers who have never taught kindergarten before. Maybe you've taught another grade before, or you're new to teaching in general, but they're also great reminders for us veteran teachers. Teachers, I need to remind myself of this every year because when we stop teaching in May or June, the kids are where we want them to be. They're at the end of the year, kindergarten behavior and academic wise, and they're where they should be. So they're almost first graders. And it's hard for us to get back into the mindset of them being basically preschoolers. So we're going to get into all these tips for everyone.
In this episode I share:
- Setting the tone
- Avoid rushing routines
- Adjusting expectations
- Building relationships
- Parent communication
- Prioritizing self-care
