Homeschool mom here. I was searching for school supply organization for my 7 kids.....I stumbled upon your video and just had to say your life for Jesus just shines through! ❤ just wanted to comment to encourage you❤ your students are lucky to have a woman of God teaching them. Blessings from Ohio.
If you saw my classroom I think you'd SCREAM Ms. May! LOL. This was so helpful. My room is a HOT MESS...but everyone comes in and gets excited about my crayons, pencils, and mailboxes LOL. Thank you!
I will be graduating with my teaching degree next month. This will be my first year of teaching. I am so excited and blessed to find your channel. Thank you so very much for taking the time to show all these tips.
I just happened to look at your videos and OMG I love them! I'm a retired Principal and will share your videos with all teachers and administrators I'm working with! Keep this up! We need you!
I love the idea of the teacher tool box and the pencil organizer! I struggled with both of these things as a first year teacher . Going into my 2nd year I’m definitely going to use it this school year !
Miss May I just started watching you this summer. I'm so sorry to hear about you being hit by the storm. Praying for you and the family. It's such a joy to watch you. I have been teaching for a minute but kind of lost my drive. But you have given it back to me. Thanks God Bless you. 😉
Aw so sweet! You are an amazing teacher! Thank you so much for sharing all your useful tips. The love for our students is what keeps us joyful and loving! 😊
I use the pencil organizer and it was life changing!!! It was sooo much easier than my students asking me every time they needed a pencil, and they felt so good about being independent! Love it, thank you miss may❤️
I think you are awesome! Thank you sharing your videos. I have incorporated a lot of your techniques and my class feels so loved! Thank you, God bless.
I love this - there's no way to avoid pencil problems, but there are ways to avoid the frustration. I agree that grinding away at dull pencils at the end of the day and sharpening them is tremendously therapeutic! Thank you for sharing this idea. I put my pencil box at the back of the room with the tissues, the extra lined and graph paper shelves, and hand gel.
+R WHP Sounds like it's pretty fab in your classroom. I'm so glad it's working for you! Yes, I just LOVE sharpening pencils at the end of the day. Bye bye pencil frustrations. Merry Christmas! ((Hugs)) and Blessings
I just found this video and your enegry made me smile. I am a homeschooling mom of 4 (5 but the oldest is 20). Were converting a shed into a classroom this summer. I have never seen the containers in black. It's a shame how much money teachers pay out of pocket to provide a well stocked and welcoming class.
👏👏love your enthusiasm. I wish I had teachers as organized as you. I'm a scrapbook ear and OCD so everything has a home and place. My boys know where everything goes and will leave me a post-it note when I'm running low. I applaud your teaching style and work ethics.
Thank you so much!! You sound like my mother. She was the same way and that's why I know I'm this way because of her. Life runs so much smoother organized. I appreciate your kind words. ((HUGS)) and Blessings
OK I’m totally addicted I saw your video once and I’ve already bought everything in it plus I’ve been making some other stuff I am the most dis organized person I know and hopefully with your help in guidance I will organize myself
I just ordered these little desk organizers online. They only had white, but I will spray paint them to match my Chalk It Up Color Bright Theme. I already have the toolbox. It's black. Thanks!
Man your so smart with the pencil thing and the crayon sorting thing and all the other stuff when I become a teacher I'm *definitely* ounces to use these ticks and ideas
going to try you pencil box idea! Pencil can be a real issue in classrooms no matter what grade I have taught. Thank you for your beautiful posivitve attitude!
Holy Moly!! You seriously have the most beautiful classroom I have ever seen! lol this is my first year so I'm still getting ideas 💡 just subscribed! Hello from SA.TX
This is only if they are in need of a specific crayon color that they may not have in their crayon/supply box. They put that c rayon back when they're finished. ((HUGS))
I have a small Sterilite 3-Drawer system like the one you showed. I am trying to figure out a different approach for HS students that need pencils and was thinking about something like what you shared. Although, sometimes, the materials run off; so I am still debating my system for this school year coming up. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Miss May, I was wondering if you can make a video talking about how you create your TPT stuff and where you get your things from. I've been thinking about creating my own TPT store- I have all of these ideas but I don't know where to start?! So maybe a TPT Beginners Tips type of thing! Thanks again!
+Margaret Paredes let me know how your new system works! I love when we find systems that work for us. I absolutely LOVE this pencil system I do now. You know how it is when you keep trying things and things don't work but then something just works! Have a fab 2017-2018 school year. ((Hugs))
Hello, Miss May. I want to know what type of Spray Paint do you use on your Teacher Toolbox? If you don't use Spray Paint what do you use? Also, quick question, do you have a resource that just has your positive teacher quotes? I love your positivity and wanted to incorporate positivity into my Teacher Planner. I just wanted to know if you had that resource on your TpT store. Love your channel!!! Thank you for all you do!!!
Hi Miss May! I was looking in your TPT store for the editable labels for the drawers for the students' personal mailboxes that I saw in one of your procedure videos but I didn't see them. Do you by any chance have those and I just overlooked them? Thanks for everything!
Here's the link www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Editable-Mailbox-Labels-for-Sterilite-Drawers-400-Labels-Kidlettes-Edition-1965441 ((Hugs)) and Blessings
Hi! I laminate them and sticky tak them on the front or sometimes double sided tape. :) This makes it so much easier to change them out with sticky tak. ((HUGS))
What do you do when a student is breaking pencils and crayons, leaving them in the floor--basically not taking care of their supplies. Thank you for making these videos of helpful tips!!
+Erin Jones honestly, I don't have that problem hardly ever. I really set those expectations very high and I discuss the importance of our materials. We role play and model LOTS in the beginning of the year. ((Hugs))
I'm giving this to my son's teacher as a gift this Christmas. Thanks
+Loraine Thomas what an amazing gift his teacher will LOVE! Thank you for watching! ((Hugs))
Gonna make the tool box for my child's teacher as a new year present
What a fab treat for that teacher! Love that idea!! ((Hugs))

If they need multiple markers for coloring a picture, do they need to get up to grab a color every single time? Thank you! Love all your ideas!
This is only if they are in need of a specific crayon color that they may not have in their crayon/supply box. They put that c rayon back when they're finished. ((HUGS))
You are Amazing❤
