Back to School Teacher First Week Pack | Year 1 | Classroom Survival Pack | First Year Teacher
Dear Fellow Teacher,
Welcome to the wonderful, chaotic, and incredibly rewarding world of Year 1!
Whether you are a first-year teacher or transitioning from another year level, you’ve just stepped into one of the most pivotal years of a child’s schooling. I’m Tahlia, the creator behind
Little Nest Designs, and most importantly, a fellow Grade 1 teacher.
I am currently taking some time away from the classroom on maternity leave, which has given me the chance to reflect on what truly makes a classroom thrive. I know exactly how those first few weeks feel: the endless "To-Do" lists, the pressure to create a beautiful environment, and the desire to set up routines that actually work.
I created this pack because I wanted to give you the resources I wish I had when I started. My goal with Little Nest Designs has always been to combine aesthetic, calming classroom decor with high-quality, practical teaching tools that save you time and headspace.
In this pack, you will find:
A 3 day First Week plan including resources, procedures and a step by step guide to organising your day!
Tips and tricks for yourself, your classroom and your students!
A checklist for must have organised before the first week of school!
List of attention grabbers!
The first year of teaching is a marathon, not a sprint. Please remember to be kind to yourself, your students don't need a "perfect" teacher; they need a regulated, happy teacher who shows up for them. I hope these resources take a little bit of the weight off your shoulders so you can focus on building those beautiful connections with your new little learners.
If you love these resources, I’d love to see them in action! Tag me on Instagram @LittleNestDesigns or visit me at www.littlenestdesigns.com.au for more tips, tricks, and classroom inspiration.
Wishing you a magical first term. You’ve got this!
Warmly,
Mrs Ryland
Primary Teacher & Founder of Little Nest Designs
