Now that your preplanning is complete, you're nearly ready to greet your students and begin teaching. However, a few details still need your attention. You've got to consider the issues of dressing professionally, meeting your colleagues, organizing tasks for your teachers' aides, checking messages, getting your principal to evaluate your classroom, and doing your own final white-glove walk-through of your room. These details are just as critical as everything else you've done so far, so continue to be diligent and professional as you make your final preparations.
