While many companies provide on-the-job training programs for new recruits, teachers are given a classroom full of students and a directive: "Educate the next generation of Americans." With this daunting task before them, teachers today are confronted with overcrowded classrooms, budget cuts, and a faltering education system. The Everything New Teacher Book recognizes that during the first couple of years in the classroom, teachers need effective suggestions on how to have a positive and lasting impact on their students. From the rules and tools of a successful learning environment to advice on behavior management, The Everything New Teacher Book is the perfect guide for teachers during their first or second year-and veteran teachers making a grade change.
