As the school year is winding down, now is the time for reflection and self-evaluation. What worked this year? What didn't? What changes would you like to make in your classroom for next year?
If you are about to enter the classroom for the first time, now is the time to start thinking about how you want to set up your room. Looking to other teachers is the best way to figure out what will work and what won't. Talk to veteran teachers about your plan and listen to their feedback. Sometimes our ideas don't actually pan out very well in practice, and this is one of those times where learning from someone else's mistakes is going to make your life much easier.
I've created a checklist to help you get organized and hopefully help reduce stress and feeling overwhelmed by what you need to do before the students walk in on that first day of school.
What are some things you would like to try next year?
What are some things you did this year that worked well for you?
