Publisher's Synopsis
This book is part of the series, What I Wish I'd Known Sooner. The first one, for parents, has been a popular book for both new, as well as experienced parents. What I Wish I'd Known Sooner: Teachers is written for teachers and educators. Included are bits of wisdom, related Scripture and prayers for students. Chapters are divided into areas affecting teachers, such First Day of School, Open House, Parent-Teacher Conference, Bus Duty, Holidays and Seasons, Sick Days and Substitute Days, Faculty Meetings, Discipline, and Assorted Gems. This series has been used in speaking to parent or teacher groups, given as a gift book, and as a quick-read for those who are able to laugh, instead of cry, when facing typical situations that arise in everyday life. Added Scripture and prayers give the reader strength and courage. These tidbits of wisdom come from over 33 years of teaching in kindergarten and on the university level. Tomlin looks at small, simple ways to make life easier and reduce the stress related to the classroom. Scripture and prayers for special needs make this a book readers will read again and again. Parts were previously published by Judy Wood Publishing, Co., and 1st Books Library.
