    Hey poppy! I haven't commented before but I have to thank you for the advice!!

I will definitely tell future teachers about these videos. Thank you for taking your time to create these videos!

      Hi! I can send you my final entry plan to your email if you would like. Even being a completely new teacher, it should work for you. You can always add or take things away as well. When I made the final entry plan, it was for my first interview so I didn't have any experience (besides my internships). Best of luck to you entering the teacher world :)

  • @ritav7917

    Hi, thank you for this information. I would really like to know more about about your entry plan. Do you have a vlog which goes into mofe detail please? Even just a dot point on what is covered in the entry plan would be great. Thanks for all your tips.

    • @poppy9830
      @poppy9830  Před 4 lety

      Hi Rita! So for the final entry plan, I had never heard of it either prior to my supervisor telling me about it.. but it really sets you apart! Basically it’s just a list of all the procedures you’re going to teach. For example, when students come in they will go to their cubbies, put their lunchbox away, and start their morning work at their desk. You introduce it by saying, “Heres my final entry plan, this is exactly what I will be teaching my students to do so that everything runs smoothly.” Or if they ask about rules and procedures that’s a good time to introduce it, “Rules and procedures are so important, I actually typed up all of the procedures I plan to teach to cut down on wasted time.” You could them go over a few or tell them to read it when they have the chance since it can be lengthy since it is every procedure. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions! I can always send you mine as an example.
