The work of a teacher is complex, and the demands—to develop lesson plans, instruct with confidence and clarity, establish classroom routines, set boundaries for student behavior, and so much more—can be quite overwhelming. Set in Australia, The Beginning Teacher provides valuable advice and a variety of strategies to support new educators as they prepare for their first teaching appointment. Program segments include “You’re a New Teacher—Now What?”; “Your First Day, First Class, First Week”; “Becoming Involved in the Wider School Culture”; and “Survival Strategies.” Viewable/printable educational resources are available online.
