You have chosen a career full of challenges, wonder, and joy.
As a beginning teacher, or a teacher facing a new assignment, you bring many gifts to your classroom. Your enthusiasm for learning and commitment to meeting the diverse needs of the students you work with are tremendous assets to your school.
Our goal in writing this book and developing this site is not only to provide a practical resource for the many “firsts” you will encounter, but also to encourage and enhance your personal learning journey. As we begin this journey together, please accept our sincere thanks for the difference you will be making in the lives of your students.
