Recently retired teachers Bob and Chris Pierce share their combined seventy years of experience, wisdom, and success in this guidebook tailored to help the beginning teacher both understand and deal effectively with the rules and rituals that play such a major role in achieving success in today's public school. For those about to embark on a career in teaching, it can be a nerve-wracking time. From the first day a novice educator walks into the school building, several challenges loom ahead that have nothing to do with planning lessons or grading papers. Therefore, Bob and Chris offer practical advice on topics such as teacher/student interactions, professional demeanor, territorial colleagues, and student stereotyping. One tip, for example, offers valuable guidance on how to praise a student: "Perhaps quietly congratulate or compliment a student as he enters or exits the classroom. Many times such one-on-one attention is taken as more sincere and less embarrassing than a public demonstration would be." Additionally, motivational quotes for teachers are sprinkled throughout the guide. This handbook provides illuminating insights to help beginning educators master their educational surroundings and circumstances and, in turn, begin to create a positive professional persona and reputation.
