This time around, it’s not the students feeling nervous… it’s the teacher heading to a teacher training all by herself! 😬✏️ But don’t worry—along the way, she remembers the same calming strategies she’s taught her own students (because yes, even grown-ups get the jitters too!).

This story is such a fun and relatable reminder that anxiety doesn’t have an age limit, and the tools we use in our classrooms matter—for kids and teachers! A must-add to any classroom collection, especially for fans of the series who love that mix heart, and real-life feelings.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an electronic copy to read in exchange for an honest review.

I love this series! Not only does it normalize the jitters, but provides practical ways in which to deal with them. A great book for teachers who also get the jitters!

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC. Although I thought some of the faces were a bit wonky looking, the story was cute and well executed. It showed kids that adults can also get nervous as well. Then shows how the students have learned from the teacher how to help their nerves which helped her calm down.

This is a wonderful story that shows children even adults get nervous about school. Most children believe that adults don't understand how they feel, but this book conveys that we all get nervous in new situations. It was a delightful read.

Julie Danneberg’s “Jitters” series has been a part of my classroom library for as long as I can remember, and I can’t wait to add her newest treasure Teacher Jitters to my collection. This is a delightful (and very realistic!) look at the fears that a teacher faces when she has to spend a day away from her students at a Math workshop.

I love how the students take what they’ve learned about staying positive and calm to ease their teacher’s mind. Loaded with notes of positive affirmations and markers that she can doodle with just in case, Mrs.Hartwell’s day of learning is a success.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC that will be a welcome addition to my classroom as soon as it’s released!

Teachers get jitters, too. As a teacher, I loved reading this because it is exactly how I feel anytime I go to a PD not at my district. I know no one and don’t know what to expect. It’s also how I feel on the first day of school with no students.

Thank you for addressing that anxiety and nerves are normal, even as adults. I think it’s important to kids to know that, too.

Thank you Charlesbridge and NetGalley for the ARC. All opinions here are my own.
