In this episode of The Teacher’s Lounge, Isa shares the joy (and chaos) of the very first week of preschool. From silly slip-ups—like mixing up song lyrics that turn into class favorites—to rookie mistakes and unpredictable moments, Isa reminds us that the first week never goes perfectly, and that’s okay. Alongside the chaos come the sweetest surprises: children finding their voices, making new friends, and building trust in small but powerful ways. This uplifting episode encourages educators to let go of perfection, embrace connection, and improvise like a pro—because those are the moments that truly make the first week unforgettable.
