Abstract
The primary focus of this project is the development of an idea-rich, practical handbook
for beginning teachers of elementary school. Current research emphasizes the following
six most common problems facing beginning teachers. Appearing in rank order, they are:
classroom management, student motivation, assessment, meeting the individual needs of
students, developing positive relationships with parents, and handling job stress. There is
a chapter dedicated to each of these topics in the handbook, complete with practical
strategies, numerous ideas, and suggested activities with accompanying reproducible
pages for new teachers to use. Information is presented in check-list or point form
whenever possible, and space is provided for the reader to record notes and ideas. All
sections of the handbook are supported by a rigorous analysis of current literature on the
topic of beginning teaching.
