Teacher Tips!
The first day of school affects the lives of your students
and will determine the success for the rest of the year.

It is essential that the teacher exhibit positive expectations toward all students.
Well-ordered environment+ Positive Expectations= Effective Classroom.
Know how to deliver the instruction to teach to the goal or standard.
Beg, borrow, & steal! Effective teachers take strategies/theories from other effective
teachers.

Education is not a product; it is a never-ending process.

Continue to learn as an educator through classes, workshops, conferences, professional
meeting, etc.

Greet students at door everyday

Assign seats the first day.
Be consistent in classroom management.
