Three key points from the document:
1) Many first-year teachers experience feelings of being overwhelmed in their first few days and months of teaching, which can sometimes lead them to leave the profession early. High turnover rates are a problem, especially for beginning teachers.
2) New teachers go through phases in their first year including anticipation, survival, disillusionment, and rejuvenation. Support from mentors, administrators, and other teachers is important for helping new teachers through these phases.
3) Establishing clear routines and procedures is essential for classroom management and allowing lessons and activities to run smoothly. New teachers must also be organized and reasonable in their expectations as they gain experience.

Creating a happy classroom is generally at the top of our agenda as a teacher. Forget the staffroom camaraderie, the satisfaction of finishing a pile of marking and the joy of finding the missing glue lid; teachers simply want children to be happy.
But how can you create a happy classroom? What can you put in place to ensure that the happiness of everyone, you included, is easily put into place? Well, thanks to our Happy-Centred School programme, we’ve got a few tricks up our sleeve to help you.
Why is creating a happy classroom necessary?
In August 2019, the annual Good Childhood Report from the Children’s Society found overall happiness among 10- to 15-year-olds had dipped below 8 on a scale of 1 to 10, with an average of 7.89. Nearly 5% of those surveyed reported happiness scores below 5 out of 10, which equates to approximately 219,000 children in the UK being unhappy with life as a whole. It also reported a ‘significant dip’ in happiness with school in 2016/17.
So, as the report says, ‘As a society, we have to start taking children’s well-being more seriously,’ and as educators, we’re in a prime position to do this.
it is good to practice good classroom management. the way learners sit in the classroom will largely affect their learning. the class discipline is core too for learners' learning. when there is class discipline, the learners will maximize the learning.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. “Overwhelming and Not
Without Tears.”
This is how too many first-
year teachers describe their
first few days on the job.
Unfortunately, this feeling
can last much longer for
some teachers, and can
even result in some
searching for a new career.
(Harris, 2003)
3. THE FACTS…..
• “The teaching occupation suffers from chronic and
relatively high annual turnover compared with many
other occupations.” (Ingersoll & Smith, 2003)
• The turnover problem, although high for the entire
teaching occupation, affects beginning teachers more
than others.
• Teaching loses many of its newly trained early in their
careers…..long before retirement.
4. THE STATISTICS…
Beginning teachers were asked
why they left…
• 19% - reasons such as cutbacks, layoff,
termination, school closings, etc.
• 39% - left to pursue a better job or
another career.
• 29% - left due to dissatisfaction with
their teaching career
• (Ingersoll & Smith, 2003)
5. LET’S TAKE A CLOSER LOOK…
These final two reasons (job
dissatisfaction and pursuit of
another career) account for more
than 2/3 of beginning teachers
• Student discipline

• Lack of support from
administration

Time!!
“Given the fact that fully half of
the teachers who will be

be hired over the next decade,

teaching. Education Leadership, p.6
• (Wong & Wong, 1998)
8. The Five Phases….
• Anticipation Phase
• Survival Phase
• Disillusionment Phase
• Rejuvenation
• Reflection
9. ANTICIPATION
PHASE
• The anticipation phase begins during the
student teaching.
• The closer student teachers get to
completing their assignment, the more
excited and anxious they become about
their first teaching position.
• This phase usually lasts through the first
few weeks of school.
• (www.lbusd.k12.ca.us)
10. SURVIVAL PHASE
• During the first month, beginning teachers are
often bombarded with a variety of problems that
they had not planned on.
• There is little time for new teachers to stop and
reflect on their experiences.
• New teachers spend up to 70 hours a week on
schoolwork.
• Become focused and consumed with the day-to-
day routines of teaching.
• (www.lbusd.k12.ca.us)
11. DISILLUSIONMENT PHASE
• After about 6-8 weeks, new teachers are
faced with several new events (parent
conferences, evaluations by administrator,
etc. )
• New teachers start questioning both their
commitment and competence, express self-
doubt, and have lower self esteem.
• (www.lbusd.k12.ca.us)
12. REJUVENATION
• Usually occurs in January, soon after
returning from winter break.
• There is a slow rise in the new teacher’s
attitude toward teaching.
• They gain new coping strategies and skills
to prevent, reduce, or minimize problems.
• (www.lbusd.k12.ca.us)
13. REFLECTION
• “It is critical that we assist new teachers and
ease the transition from student teacher to
full-time professional.” (www.lbusd.k12.ca.us)
• We need to know the ways to help new
teachers during their first years, so they
have a more positive experience.
14. So Who Can Help Change this
Problem??
• School and district
administrators
• Other teachers within
the building
• Counselors
• The new teacher too!
15. Getting Help from Your Colleagues
• You will find that different teachers in the school will have
different strengths, so don’t be afraid to use them as resources.
For example, there might be one colleague who is a creative
lesson planner, and one that is an extremely caring individual that
you could talk to. (Rominger, Laughrea, & Elkin, 2001)
• Counselors and psychologists are often helpful when dealing with
difficult children and even difficult parents.
• Sometimes second year teachers, the “sophomores”, can provide
some of the best advice. They can remember the successes and
failures from their first year the best!
16. Words of Advice from a Few
Second Year Teachers

19. MENTOR PROGRAMS
Definition- A mentor is a veteran teacher who has
been assigned by either the school or the district
to a first- or second-year teacher. The mentor is a
resource for the beginning teacher and someone
to whom that teacher can turn with any questions.
The mentor helps the new teacher for the length of
an entire school year. (Rominger, Laughrea, &
Elkin, 2001)
20. Mentors Will Provide Details to
Help You…

classrooms resources and materials.

• (Curriculum Review, 2003)
21. Keys to Success for
New Teachers

22. BE REASONABLE
• You went into education to help students, but need to know you won’t save them all.
• Don’t expect lots of positive feedback from students….students do complain.
• Teach what you are comfortable teaching.
• You can’t do it all your first year.
ORGANIZE YOUR LIFE
• Don’t expect to have too much free time outside of student teaching or your first-
year teaching.
• Find a lesson plan format.
• List changes that you should make before teaching it again.
• It is OK if you are only a day or two ahead in your lessons.
REFLECT

treat your students.

24. Why are Procedures Necessary?
• They allow many different activities to take place
efficiently during the school day.
• They increase on-task time and greatly reduce
classroom disruptions.
• They tell a student how things operate in a classroom,
thus reducing discipline problems.
• Procedures are statements of student expectations
necessary to participate successfully in classroom
activities.
