When I'm older I want to be a teacher and so I can but this channel will help me fir later on in life . I love you and your channel so much . I stay up at night watching your videos !
I'm a first year student studying elementary education/special education. Watching this and you has gotten me even more excited for my future!! Hope all is still well in your classroom :)
This is an amazing video! I am a newly qualified teacher about to start my first job and this video has given me tones of tips and ideas! Thank you!! :)
I am currently a sub and slowly collecting materials for my future classroom. Do you have any suggestions on where to get durable materials that will last in the classroom? P.S. I love your classroom!
Wow... That's really awesome. Here in Mexico we have to share the classroom with the other teacher depending on which switch you are (morning or afternoon)
Having such a colorful, animated classroom with things all over and numbers not in order would be such a struggle for me. Kids obviously love it.. My dilemma. Any fellow OCD teachers out there?
I absolutely loved this! I am a year away from getting my future classroom and I loved all of your ideas! How did you come up with all of the various activities and things that you do throughout the week? Do you have any resources that you used that you found helpful?
Hi Sydney. Thank you for watching. I pull from so many resources but I also sit down and think about the different strategies they teach in college and how to scaffold your students' learning. I will start making a list of the resources and let you know!
+Toni Craiker You are so sweet. I hope to do some soon but a partner teacher of mine and I are working on our book for organization. Maybe once that it does :)
Your classroom is amazing! Do other teachers from your school know that you have a channel? I would love to start one, because I haven't found a music teacher channel, but I feel shy about my school, coordinator or other teachers finding out......... Do you have any advice???
+Frida Minuet I don't advertise it but yes my coworkers do know (at least some of them do) and not much is said about it. When I am at school, I am thinking school not my channel. 🤗
Hello,I really LOVE your classroom! The part with the teacher desk, I don't blame you; I teacher 6th grade Social-Studies & I literally found a nice little desk in office depot. Because to me, I think those teacher desk takes up a lot of space! Although that this is my first year I literally have a lot of goals to accomplish! Hope your having a great year!-- Mr. McKnight
+The Lettered Classroom thanks so much! As a new teacher I've learned so much watching you. Thanks for sharing your advice and your classroom with us! :)
Wait until you have a career, so you can pay for the child and have a good stable income. My cousin has a baby the last semester of high school and her life is pretty much screwed
Hi ! Wow what a wonderful classroom ! A couple of questions: how do you make the magnets for the word wall? When is your planner for next year going to be released ?
+Jenai Om I simple print my sight words on labels, adhere them to the yellow paper, laminate and stick a magnet on the back. I get my magnets from Walmart and they already have a sticky backing so it makes it really easy.
Hey question would you ever go back to teaching kindergarten ever again or teacher primary grade level like first grade second grade or possibly third grade??
For your themed binders, where do you recommend finding the sheet protectors. All the ones I've been seeing are pretty pricey for a small pack. Thank you! :)
They are very expensive. I have bought some off of Amazon and then I made the plunge and purchased at the store. It's something I will use forever so I want to make sure they stay neat.
+Ky Mein this is not my original idea, but yes it is fantastic! My kids really enjoy it and I enjoy making it different every week. I especially like to make it match our theme ;)
How have you been able to have such a large classroom library? Your classroom is so pretty and really well organized by the way! :) Thank you so much for the video.
+Marcela Castillo I started purchasing my books in college. I am a huge book lover and am constantly buying books. I also use scholastic book orders to earn point and get free books through them. Thank you!
I've watched this like 4 times! I'd like to know more about those dry erase math practice fluency folders you have (what sheets do have inside?). Really interested in your daily data, counting jar, and estimation station. Thinking about adding that into my 1st grade class. I wish I could come and observe you teach! :) keep sharing, I want to know everything! 😜
+tamicay925 You are so sweet! Thank you for watching the 'movie'. I know this was super long but I'm known to ramble A LOT. Yeah, my reading coach shared this with me. If you go on TPT and type math fluency sheets you are bound to get so many. I tried to incorporate various things: finger fluency, die fluency, number fluency, shape fluency... really all you need to do is reflect on what concepts you teach in math and look for fluency sheets. I will do a post soon on my reading/math fluency and early finishers tub. Did you see the vlog post called Questions Answered? It has my explanation about my counting jar. Thanks again. I hope this helped. If not let me know!
So sad that you are not in kinder anymore! I'm switching from 4th to kinder and your videos have been so helpful! I love how organized you are! im thinking of buying your planner but I'm not sure yet if my principal prefers hand written or typed lesson plans! Super cute though!!! Do you have an aide? I will be teaching full day from 7:50-1:50 and will only have an aide for one hour! Super nervous about that since its my first year in kinder!
No worries! Stay organized and you will do great! I have never had an aide and I'm still here :) As I discussed in the video I use both Planbook.com and my Planner daily, both serve a different purpose. I would definitely look into Planbook.com if you choose to go a digital route. Best of Luck! My PlanBook.com intro ua-cam.com/video/zU5gf07pzcY/v-deo.html
Oh I just love watching these videos!!!! Congrats on your move to 4th! Was wondering what you kept in the chair pockets at your small group table? Cute room and holy organized! Loving your new room too!!!!! ❤️❤️
+Holly Wazy I kept a lot of my intervention materials that were too bulky to keep behind my table. I had my handwriting without tears materials and a binder that kept some practice sheets. Thank you so much for watching!
I’m in 10th grade right now. I want to be a kindergarten teacher one day, but the thought of it makes me anxious. About what materials to have, what to teach, and other stuff like that.
I am catching up on your vlogs and am very curious about how you had your kinders organize the classroom library. Were their common categories that they came up with? Are there any blog or vlogs that I could get more details about your process? If not, no worries, I know that you are working with older grades now :) Thank you for your vlogs!
Welcome! I don't have a video about my K library, I started vlogging after we had it set up. I chose to let the students set up the library. They made their choice by "likeness" while we talked about Fiction and Non-Fiction. Then they came up with their own categories.
i loove your videos... i am a first year student teacher and I learn a lot from your vids. Can you please do a video on behavioural strategies and maybe even fun student centred activities across different subjects please? Thanks xxxx
+The Lettered Classroom oh trust me, I'm binge watching your videos. I needed this last year when I first started teaching K. this year I'm teaching pre-k, but it's everything is still so helpful!
What kinds of categories did your kiddos organize the library books into? This is a fantastic idea, and I never thought of having Kinders do it themselves!
We discussed organization and categories in class, then I asked them to organize it themselves with what they had learned. Each year is different, but I ask them to maintain the library throughout the year.
+Raylee Hood I've taught in a classroom where students used these and the exercise balls minimized distractions actually because the students could fidget on them instead of tilting their chairs. Expectations and how to use them just need to be enforced and practiced a lot at the beginning of the year, but that is true for anything.
You make me happy
i really love this almost my 3rd grade room looks like this i hope you have a great time with your vlogs
+Cayman Vondra Thank you! I love looking back and reflecting on my teaching!
When I'm older I want to be a teacher , I love this channel because it's so informative, I will take much of your advice for later years , thanks 😀
Thank you so much, Grace! Good luck!
Grace Haggerty same!
The Lettered Classroom thanks soo much 😀🙂
Grace Haggerty xxxx. Hi

You are my absolute favorite UA-camr! I can't wait to become a teacher soon and be able to use all these strategies !
+Bushra Quadri Thank you so much! I am so glad that you are finding these tips useful!
I'm a first year student studying elementary education/special education. Watching this and you has gotten me even more excited for my future!! Hope all is still well in your classroom :)
Preparing for my (hopefully) first school year teaching next year. Thank you for posting such informative videos and sharing your knowledge!
watched this while getting ready to go to my own classroom this morning! Great video and some great ideas! Keep it up love!
I love watching videos while getting ready! So glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
Very visually busy! How do kids we it ADD handle it?
What a fantastic video! I honestly don't think there are enough of these room walk throughs online. Such great ideas that I can adapt for my own room!
+Danza So glad you enjoyed it! Let me know what you decide to and how it works.
This is an amazing video! I am a newly qualified teacher about to start my first job and this video has given me tones of tips and ideas! Thank you!! :)
Great! I'm glad you found it helpful!
This looks amazing and very inspiring. Did you buy all the furniture and shelving with your own money? Was it massively pricey to achieve this room?
You have a huge room love the windows
Oh my yes I love my room. The school is older and the front classrooms have some amazing windows. I was so lucky to get that room.
I love that flower rug! Where did you get it?
I picked it up at Vera Bradley a few years ago! I worked there while I was in college.
I am currently a sub and slowly collecting materials for my future classroom. Do you have any suggestions on where to get durable materials that will last in the classroom? P.S. I love your classroom!
Yay! I loved this! Thank you for sharing👍🏼👏🏼🙏🏼😊
Wow... That's really awesome. Here in Mexico we have to share the classroom with the other teacher depending on which switch you are (morning or afternoon)
Wonderful! I love your classroom. I enjoy pre-k/kindergarten teaching I am so proud to be certified in this area.
+Toni Craiker Yay! It is such a great age.
Great info...Loved it!
Having such a colorful, animated classroom with things all over and numbers not in order would be such a struggle for me. Kids obviously love it.. My dilemma. Any fellow OCD teachers out there?
I'm messy too! It's nice to hear someone else admit that. I love your videos! Thanks!
+Claudia Empey it is so nice to know that you are not the only one 😉
I love this. you should do more videos like a day in the life
Nice classroom!! I can't wait til I be a teacher.
This is really amazing !! Your classroom is so big!
I promise it looks really big on camera. It is a bit bigger than your typical room but not as big as you see it in the video. :) Thank you!
I absolutely loved this! I am a year away from getting my future classroom and I loved all of your ideas! How did you come up with all of the various activities and things that you do throughout the week? Do you have any resources that you used that you found helpful?
Hi Sydney. Thank you for watching. I pull from so many resources but I also sit down and think about the different strategies they teach in college and how to scaffold your students' learning. I will start making a list of the resources and let you know!
This is amazing! I hope that you are doing workshops for teachers. Love it ! Thanks so much!
+Toni Craiker You are so sweet. I hope to do some soon but a partner teacher of mine and I are working on our book for organization. Maybe once that it does :)
Who is your partner that is helping you write the book?
Your classroom is amazing! Do other teachers from your school know that you have a channel? I would love to start one, because I haven't found a music teacher channel, but I feel shy about my school, coordinator or other teachers finding out......... Do you have any advice???
+Frida Minuet I don't advertise it but yes my coworkers do know (at least some of them do) and not much is said about it. When I am at school, I am thinking school not my channel. 🤗
Really helpful thanks :D!

You are blessed to have such a HUGE classroom! :)
+Cecilia Reyes Yes I am. My room is amazing.
thanks for showing us around! have you made a video about your 31 filing system? I would love to learn more about that. thanks!
I will make one that talks about it in more detail. It's a popular topic.
+The Lettered Classroom thanks so much! As a new teacher I've learned so much watching you. Thanks for sharing your advice and your classroom with us! :)
When did you have your baby? Would you advise having one during college so he or she is a bit older once you start teaching?
This can't be a real question
Wait until you have a career, so you can pay for the child and have a good stable income. My cousin has a baby the last semester of high school and her life is pretty much screwed
hi it's Amanda from your kindergarten class 2015-2016 again but I saw this vid and I remember your classroom sooooooooo much
Hi ! Wow what a wonderful classroom ! A couple of questions: how do you make the magnets for the word wall? When is your planner for next year going to be released ?
+Jenai Om I simple print my sight words on labels, adhere them to the yellow paper, laminate and stick a magnet on the back. I get my magnets from Walmart and they already have a sticky backing so it makes it really easy.
+Jenai Om I am launching in June.
Thank you !!!!
Such an inspiring room! 😍

LOVE THE ESTIMATION STATION-HOW FUN

You inspired me so much on how to set up your classroom and a zillion other things but that would probably take a hour to say it all:)
Thank you so much! I'm happy to hear that you find my videos helpful!
Can you PLEASE tell me where to get the green, yellow, and red dividers with a pocket in the writing binders? I want these ASAP. love it
I found all of those at Office Depot. I reorder them each year.
+The Lettered Classroom I am really struggling to find them online in those three colors. Maybe I could show them your video! :)

I do not know if you said it before, but why the number system?

You have great taste!
The Lettered Classroom so do you
you're classroom is lovely but have you ever considered using yoga balls instead of chairs for the students
+Raylee Hood I've taught in a classroom where students used these and the exercise balls minimized distractions actually because the students could fidget on them instead of tilting their chairs. Expectations and how to use them just need to be enforced and practiced a lot at the beginning of the year, but that is true for anything.
