Wanting some summer reading, classroom advice, or just to keep up with the trends?
Take a look at the KDP online New Teacher Advocate The Professional Journal for New Teachers
The New Teacher Advocate is designed to support new teachers transitioning from being a student through being a student teacher and into their first years of teaching. Its succinct articles are meant to provide support through stories, how-to’s, steps to take, resources, patterns to follow, and lots of practical applications. This quarterly journal can be tucked into your bag or purse to read during short periods of free time. It’s not unusual for new teachers to report implementing ideas from the New Teacher Advocate within 24 hours of seeing them!
