Don't apologize when you ask questions. You need to know, so asking is what you should do. Use the resources that we provide you. Read the handouts, articles, and manuals. Be flexible and willing to adapt to situations.
Rigidity wins a battle but loses wars and friends.
Keep your sense of humor and enjoy the children and your colleagues. Celebrate the successes, but realize that we do not always succeed. Plan some time for yourself. Protect your great attitude. Listen a lot.
