Book excerpt: Rhoda Samkoff simplifies the process of becoming acclimatised to the teaching profession by addressing concerns that new teachers often have and offering strategies for dealing with the most challenging--and most common--new teacher situations. This handbook is like having a mentor in the classroom next door. Using a blend of examples from real classrooms and advice from experienced teachers, this easy-to-read book provides information on a wide range of topics, such as strategies for planning effective lessons, communicating with parents, and dealing with specific student behaviours. Each chapter includes: - TIPS, or Theory-Into-Practice Strategies that provide workable strategies for teachers - Anecdotes from actual classroom situations - Time-saving reproducible "start-up" materials such as forms, rubrics, and checklists - Frequently asked questions that address the concerns of new teachers.
