Tips For First Year Teachers (And reminders for us veteran teachers!)

Recently on my Facebook page, I asked for tips for first year teachers and got a tremendous response.  As I was reading them and compiling this list, so many of the tips hit home with me!  So, here are some great tips for first year teacher and veteran teachers like me, who might need some refreshers!
As you read through these, you’ll see some themes:  patience, love, fun, and taking care of you!
And you’re going to be exhausted.  EX-HAUSTED!  
Remember, if we’re not at our best, we can’t give them our best!  
And…CHOCOLATE!   You will not make it without chocolate.
Feel free to share these images on social media to help other teachers and remind us of those little things we might have forgotten!
And please comment with your own tips and advice!
