Did you just find out you are moving to Kindergarten? In this episode, I share my experience as a first-time kindergarten teacher, giving you some tips that helped me my first year. It can be pretty emotional when discovering your new teaching assignment and what helped me most was seeking mentorship from an experienced kindergarten teacher. Reviewing lesson plans helped me manage classroom activities and alleviate stress. Familiarizing myself with the teaching space and understanding the curriculum's big picture were also crucial steps I took to prepare. I advocate for three main actions: finding a mentor, organizing lesson plans, and assessing the teaching environment, while encouraging new teachers to embrace the journey ahead. Join me in our summer challenge and professional development sessions for further support and insights.
