For all you new and experienced teachers out there teaching any grade level...The First Days of School by Harry & Rosemary Wong is the one book you should have before you venture into your own classroom! This is a wonderful resource that I refer to every so often before a new school year begins. It may look old, but the universal tips and ideas are still one of the classic bests! I actually have the old version, but I know the authors made a more modern second edition of the book, here. Either way, same important contents. Here's a preview of the book.
Here are some very useful websites by the Wong-duo:

I agree that this is a great book. I lent my copy to a new teacher, and I plan to reread parts of it when I get it back.
ReplyDeleteI find myself going back to it every year too! :) Thanks for commenting!
