Overview
Voted Teacher-of-the-Year, Chelonnda Seroyer never looked back after her first day of school. But she could have easily failed as a teacher because her student teaching experience was a disaster. Wisely, she took copious notes of that experience and reflected on what happened to prepare for her first teaching position in the English department at Bob Jones High School in Madison, Alabama. Chelonnda spent two months pouring through THE First Days of School and using it as a guide for organizing her first day of school.
When the first day of school came, she had a script. She had a classroom management plan.
Standing at the classroom door, she greeted her students as they entered the room. She was nervous and uneasy. Then she had an eerie feeling. Turning around to look into her classroom, she saw that her students were seated at their desks—and at work!
And the first second of the first minute of the first day of school had not even begun. She was already a success on her first day of school. From that moment on, she has never looked back on her career.
At the end of her first year of teaching, she was awarded the school’s Patriot Award, given to the first-year teacher who contributed the most to the school. At the end of her second year of teaching, she was given another Patriot Award for her contributions. This time she was selected from all the teachers in the school. At the end of her fourth year, she was selected the school’s Teacher-of-the-Year.
A veteran teacher said to her, “I have been here for thirteen years and I have yet to receive a recognition. How do you do it?”
Chelonnda said one word, “Procedures.”
Chelonnda shares the procedures she uses in her first day of school script in the video. See how she applies the classroom management techniques from the book. Delight in her stories of professional growth and discovery. Reflect on her touching personal journey. Watch a young professional put all the pieces together. You’ll laugh, cry, and be proud that you’re a fellow classroom teacher.
