Meet the Teachers
Even in my 4th year of teaching, one night that always gets my nerves going is "Meet the Teachers." I know everything is going to work out (because it always does!), but it doesn't stop my stomach from churning just a little. It's the first time that I will be seeing the parents, although luckily I have met several of the parents before. However, this year seems just a bit more nerve wrecking since this is also my first year in a fourth grade classroom. So a little more planning and reviewing what I am going to say in my head than years before and I will be ready!

I wonder if the nerves will ever truly go away for events like "Meet the Teachers." I feel that it probably doesn't matter how confident you are, or how many years you have been teaching, there is always a bit of nervousness as each group of parents is very different from one another and you want to make a good first impression!
ReplyDeleteI know I don't have to respond to your group, but I feel a little disconnected to everyone compared to the other classes. I think everybody shares those feelings regardless if it's their first year in that grade or not. Lets face it, today's parents are very intimidating, and I still get nervous over some of the questions they might ask. You'll be fine, remember to just breathe and kepp the smile!!
