Preschool classrooms often look so different from kindergarten classrooms. What are some of the ways you bridge the gap?

Hi everyone! I wanted to share an awesome resource. Yoga Foster offers teachers lesson plans on how to use yoga and mindful movement in your classroom. You can also apply for grants for yoga mats!

Dropping this in a few bowls, sorry if you see it twice.
I'm transitioning from teaching 8th grade mathematics at a public school to teaching a 7/8 self-contained classroom at a charter school.
Any advice for teaching mixed grade levels or multi subject is appreciated: scheduling, classroom setup, subject order, behavior management, etc. I'm struggling to find my rhythm with only 6 weeks before kids return.
Thanks to everyone for your commitment and time, enjoy your summer!

I am looking to build a classroom library for my ELs. I teach new comers. What books would you choose for your library?

I’m student teaching and I’m completely stressed out. I’ve been in an elementary classroom as a TA, but this is way different.

What have been some of your favorite books to teach in the classroom? Especially from POC authors!

Good Evening My Fellow Christian Educators! I realize it is going to be challenging for me this year...with so many of my students performing below grade level expectations in ELA and MATH and also ensuring that all students follow the COVID Guidelines in the classroom. I still feel hopeful that God will bless me with the knowledge on how to effectively impact each one of those kids. Let's remember to keep all educators lifted in prayer this year.
Have a wonderful school year!!
God Bless All❤️

Has anyone used wordcraft in their classroom?

I can manage my classroom better if I don’t respond to emails outside of office hours. This gives my mind a break and by consequence refreshes me for the next day. It also sets a boundary.

Does anyone use Google Classroom for ECSE ? I was supposed to have it up and running by Thursday. Luckily, all of my kiddos came. I didn’t take the workshop this summer and the person that gave a brief overview last week talked so fast that I couldn’t understand what was being said.

Has anyone used a career counselor? Are they useful? I feel like I want out but nothing sounds interesting and I don’t even know how to TELL what’s interesting or if I’m just chasing a way out.

How do you guys manage to find time for exercise?

I work at bedside as a RT but unsure what to transition to. I've thought about IT but my mental health has deteriorated during the pandemic.

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.

How do you approach a stinky middle school kid or their parents with hygiene suggestions? I don’t know how to politely tell anyone that they smell bad.

Anyone else feel like we're an industry-wide equivalent of fiddling while Rome burned? Ignoring the impact a lot of our work has while waiting for all the tension in the country to break?

Did anyone in pre-K teach or going to teach black history? I really want to spend sometime on this. But it seems there is not a lot out there. Need some ideas.

Hey everyone! I just came out with a free guide to online learning for early childhood teachers. Let me know if you’d be interested. Happy to send it your way! Sending you positive and healthy vibes!

Should I feel terrible about not getting my preschoolers Valentine's stuff? With the pandemic, having to remotely teach instead of having snow days, finishing up report cards and completing progress reports on my IEP students I simply did not even think about it and now tomorrow is the day 😕

I am curious about training for extreme behavior. For example what is the protocol for biting, spitting, kicking punching teachers and/or students at your school? Ages 3-7

One of my favorite things about early childhood is the unique kids think. I feel like I should start a book of all the funny things kids say. What’s the funniest thing that happened to you this year?

Hey EC teachers! Anyone willing to get on a market research call with me? I promise, no pitch!! Just want to ask a few questions :)

Interested in connecting with other play-based preschools housed in public schools.

“They aren’t getting it.” Well, duh! If you would take a moment and actually help with the activity instead of watching them struggle they might get it! Small groups is to practice new skills!!!
