Problem solving skills
If something can go wrong it will! - Plan to be a creative problem solver. I learned early in my teaching career when I first had a child with special needs in my class that every well-planned lesson could be disrupted.
- You either get frustrated or go into a creative problem solving mode.
- Define the problem, and then ask… How can I make this work? In what ways can I solve this problem? What can I do differently? Do I need to ask for help or advice?
- Avoid blaming at all times, just focus on solving the problem.
Organization leads to fewer problems ...
When becoming a kindergarten teacher take advantage of products that keep classroom management easy. Clutter adds to student management problems. Teach children where to put things early in the year and you will have fewer problems with lost items and cleanup chaos.
