Wordless Wednesday: Apples & New Teachers {June 11}

I'm linking up with Christina from Sugar and Spice for Wordless Wednesday.


My superstar student teacher landed a job yesterday, so that inspired me to make a few things that she (and I) can use at the beginning of the school year.



Apple Order has apples with numbers on them (0-20) for students to put in numerical order.  It is a freebie. :)

Here she is working with a small group.

What is your best advice for the new teacher?

  1. My advice for a new teacher is 1) Have a behavior management plan and really work with the students on expectations. Behavior is the foundation to a great school year. Daily 5 and Warm Fuzzies have helped me a ton! 2) Be flexible. There are so many disruptions in a teacher's day. It is best to have a plan a,b, and c!

  4. How Fun!! Congrats to her! :) My advice is to do what you can to stay organized and to know that some days will be hard and things will go wrong - and that's okay!! :) Have a friend to go to for questions and advice in your building. :) Thanks for linking up! Miss DeCarbo at Sugar and Spice

  5. You are their teacher, not their BFF! Be strong ( with HUGS ), consistent, and don't let it take over your life! You need down time too! Wendy 1stgradefireworks 1stgradefireworks
