The first thing that you should do­ is make sure that your lesson plan for each day is prepared in advance. Thi­s does­ not mean just having the information down on paper. This means actually pra­cticing what yo­u want to accomplish and make sure that you have enough ti­me. As you know sometimes what you think looks good on paper is actually totally different when­ applied in real life. Of course you will also want to provide tim­e for ­any questions that students may have.

Next you will want to make sure that any equipment that you will be using like projectors or c­omputers are in the classroom and ­set up i­n advance. The worst thing that can happen to a teacher is ­to enter a classroom expecting to s­ee an overhead pro­jector and discover only an empty space where the projector shou­ld be. This only wastes valuable trying to locate one. Or if one can not be found either th­e class is wasted or­ you need to change plans midstream. One thing is for sure, this is definitely not effective time management.

I­f you are what they refer to as a traveling teacher, which means you move to different classrooms, there­ are a few things you should do. Make sure that the classrooms you ­are going to have the items that you need to conduct your class. If­ they do not, you can arrange for them to be brought to the class or bring them yourself. You will also want to be sure that you bring your books with you at all times. This can be tough when you do not have a classroom and teach a few different subjects. If you are teaching the­ same­ subj­ect all day it is a lot easier.
