Navigating a Teacher's First Year

This book is written for those professionals whose role it is to enter the world of a first-year teacher, have a heightened awareness of the minute details that await a promising professional, and guide novice teachers to a productive and fulfilling first year with their students. It is specifically written to provide administrators with information about the nuts-and-bolts needs of a new teacher/staff member and to provide organized checklists of ways to support them. The combined 80-plus years of experience in K12 education that Cindy Daniels and Karen Martin bring to this book encompass the roles of teacher, specialist, mentor, professional development presenter, supervisor, and administrator.
