I love your videos, you are a great teacher too. You stay up very late so your kids have a fun and engaging lesson, you stay up till 1am, get to school, and stay after school till 7pm! Always remember, you kids will always love you no matter who you are and what you do.
Every time I need a productivity boost for work, I come back and binge your old videos. It’s perfect motivation!
Me, too! Glad to know I’m not the only one! 😁
Yay for my Saturday morning ritual of watching your videos!
Can you show us in your next vlog how you make your teachers pay teachers products? It will help me out a lot!!
Ellin Joy and Becky I agree! I would like to start in TPT as a seller!
Your videos are helping me cope with the stress of my upcoming student teaching experience. I'm excited to have found you as a resource for all of the lesson planning I need to get done. Definitely going to visit your TPT store soon!!
6:50 IS really early- it's just about the time I have to leave for work. 😑 Our elementary school starts at 7:50 am. I like to be there by 7:30. In the winter it's much harder to leave in the morning without the sun being out.
I've been teaching for 15 years and have learned a lot since being the fresh-out-of-college teacher my first year. I wish I had it together back then like some of you "newer" teachers do! 💗 I plan on Thursdays for the week ahead. Then, on Fridays I make anchor charts, copies, change my job chart, etc. I actually look forward to Monday instead of feeling overwhelmed like I once did. 😊
PlanningCrafty Teacher that's an awesome planning tip! Will definitely refer back to this when I begin my first year!
You have become part of my Saturday morning me-time ritual! Coffee, wind chimes on the balcony, and nearly an hour of That Teacher Life??? ❤👍❤👍❤ Finding your vlogs has renewed my passion for teaching; thank you!
I'd LOVE to see a Get Ready with Me: Teacher Edition! Ya know, since you have so much time in the mornings. 😂 Seriously, though - I love seeing others' morning routines because mine is a struggle! I AM NOT a morning person, either. I have students starting at an ungodly 7:00 am!!! Being rushed in the morning ruins my (and their) entire day. I've needed to set my alarm for 5:00 lately to get there by 6:45. It's only a ten minute commute. :/ I need to see how you get ready in 10 minutes!!!
I get up at 5 am. My school starts at 7:30 and I live 45 minutes away. I don't know how you stay up so late! I can barely keep my eyes open past 8:00!
yea I have to be to work by 8, so im upo sometime at 5. I can't stay up too late or I can't function lol
Really i can stay up till 1:00 that is my maximum
What I personally do is take a picture of any messes then go over it in morning meeting.
Eden Rae me too!!!
Enjoyed this video and laughed about the PTA night. It never fails you spend hours getting the classroom ready for parents and only one parent shows up. I'm in an inner city school and same things happens. At least you have parent volunteers. Bought your freedom quilt packet. I can't get through Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt without crying. Also, got your word work packet and the Black History Math. Thanks for all you do. It makes my day easier.
My Saturday wouldn't be complete without your uploads! I love these vlogs!
Do not stop vlogging!! You have inspired me to make my own channel. Thank you for being so amazing!!
I love you
I
I really enjoy your vlogs! It's great to know that we all have successes and failures, that we all experience such joys in teaching and days where everything is falling apart and also that no matter how much we plan and prep, the work is never done! Keep doing what you are doing! 😀
Literally look forward each and every week for these videoss
Please continue to post your vlogs! You have been such an inspiration to me since I started watching. I have four years experience in kindergarten and this is my first year in second grade. The struggles are REAL! I admire all that you do, you inspire me so much, and remind me of the passion I hold for education even when I feel like a failure at times. Thank you😍
Just changed my major to Early Childhood Education. This helps me be prepared for what I'm going to face lol.
I am a high school student in a teacher cadet course and i start my field experience next week and all of your videos have been so helpful and inspiring!
Please continue to do the vlogs they have become apart of my weekend routine. Your bubbly personality always puts me in a good mood.
Maggie Mitchell i agree and her videos are very motivational since I want to become a teacher in the future
KittyStarr10 Aspiring Teacher here too! I love this channel so much. Absolutely the most realistic depiction of elementary school teaching. I'm extra inspired!
Maggie Mitchell I
these vlogs have become part of my Saturday mornings! love them!
So glad you commented on fluff vs. content! Many parents (at least in my area) are drawn towards the "fluff". Just because a teacher makes her room pretty and does fun craftivities doesn't mean the students are learning what they should be. As the saying goes...don't judge a book by its cover! I'm looking forward to your vlogs on this subject.😊
I love your vlogs! It's comforting to know that someone else is experiencing similar events, issues, and being overwhelmed at times. Being a night owl also, I do understand the lethargy you experience with TOO much sleep. LOL! Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
Please continue! I'm a first year teacher and I look forward to Saturday when you upload! Your videos make me feel better about teaching!!!
I too am very busy being a grade 3 teacher, father of two, and a husband!
But I make time to chill and watch your videos! You do a wonderful job!
I'm not a teacher, nor am I on track to be one, but your personality puts me in a good mood and inspires me to be productive! Thank you for sharing ❤️
You're literally my goals
I just started college majoring in elementary education and you keep reminding me why I'm doing this
I love your craftivities you do. I wish I could come up with some for middle school. Enjoyed video. You are very candid.
Omg you and I are the same person haha! I've never seen someone who literally says all the things I think about every day teaching. We work so hard and I think it's awesome that you put it out there for everyone to see through your perspective. Laughed so hard at the popcorn. Literally me like 3 times a week!
As an Australian Secondary (high school) teacher, I really enjoy your vlogs!
I love your weekly teacher vlogs! As long as you keep doing them I'll keep watching them! By the way did you like Dunkin Donuts new coffee flavors?
Yes please continue these vlogs I look forward to them and you're an inspiration to me 😊
As always, I love your vlogs! I'd love to know what you're doing for Valentine's Day and 100th day in the classroom. You have the best ideas!!
I completely agree about the content vs cute in some TPT products. Hope you can possibly make ones that can be adapted to Kindergarten.
Thank you so much for these vlogs. They are like my morning episode to watch with coffee. I'm a sub teacher and these are such s good insight. :D
YES!!!!!!!!!!!! Please continue doing vlogs, I look forward to them every weekend!!!!!! You are an inspiration. If you ever figure out why you are so tired, let me know, lol. I have been teaching for ten years....and I have been exhausted ever since. Teacher of 23 first graders, and mother of three. My work NEVER ends!!
Love the blogs. Especially that they are up on Sundays because it motivates me for Monday! THANKS!
Please keep doing these! You are such an inspiration to me! ❤️
Twin usually have grateful attitude towards teachers I’m a twin last year me and her had the same teachers we were the best kids our teachers said
Keep filming. It's nice to know other teachers experience the same things and emotions that I do.
I love these!!!
I watch all your vids and love them! Sorry I do sometimes forget to hit Like, but please keep filming for this PreK teacher in school to become an elementary teacher!
Yessss! Please continue these vlog!!!!!
I don't actually understand why I love these videos so much lol (I'm the Michael who emailed you btw)
I don't know if you have one or not but one of co-teachers has a mini paper cutter and it's amazing. Whenever I have a bunch to cut, I peek into her room and ask if I can borrow it. I've found you can cut about 4 at a time and it's super quick and easy.
love these vlogs so much! :) also loved the way you filmed the time lapses :)
I enjoy these blogs so much as a future teacher!! please continue!! :)
Small great things is a great read. Love Jodi Picoult, shes such a great storyteller
Hi! I am a HS Science teacher and I recently found your vlogs. I am pleased to see I'm not the only crazy teacher who stays at school late and goes to bed late (2 am ) every night.
I love your vlogs!! Please keep doing them, I find them so relatable and encouraging
About which one to get mad with? I would talk to them at the same time.
I have to wake up at 5:15 everyday because I have to travel 40 minutes to get to work and I normally get there 30 minutes before I'm suppose to be there. Rather get my work done in the morning then stay longer and risk getting stuck in traffic...
That man at the dunkin donuts taking your order sounded like billy
I love these vlogs!!!!!
Please continue to vlog. I really enjoy them. I'm considering lateral entry teaching in NC.
that last snowman! I died lol
Could you please film yourself teaching a lesson?
Kim Haiser I don’t think she can to protect the students privacy
Instead of giving a stand alone spelling test each week you could think about assessing their spelling during their regular writing pieces. I no longer give stand alone spelling tests. I grade their spelling as we work during the week. The words are in context and I know if they're using them or not. I tell them that all sight words we've learned count as well as new words we're learning. Just a thought from an old teacher.
I literally love watching your blog on a Sunday night before I go to work Monday here in Australia. Thank you so much! You are so like me as a teacher :). Feel the same about craftivity. Love it, but stresses me out :)
I needed this video. Thanks!!
Love your videos! Look forward to them every weekend :)
Yes! Kids stink! Not all of them, but it just takes 1 or 2. I have 1 third grader who lights up my classroom every afternoon.
I love your blogs!! U resort down to earth and hilarious!
Keep them coming I love the Vlogs
I look forward to your vlogs every week!!! :)
Where do you get all your black and white clip art? I am OBSESSED!
Hello! Just caught a glimpse of your "Anchor Chart" board and noticed that you are using what looks like a towel bar to hang by rings?? Very clever idea! I am curious about how the rings stay on your anchor chart paper without ripping through; and, how did you get your towel bar secured to the whiteboard? Thanks!!
Good job teaching
Well damn for us we didn't get our reports, they were given to our parents during PTA. The only way we got ours without our parents meetings if there was a written letter stating why.
I saw your Jodi Piccoult, Small great things book. That made me want to know what other good reads you've been reading!
Hi Michelle! I am in my final student teaching practicum (with a 50% teaching load) and will hopefully be hired full time in the fall! I'm wondering how you balance your relationship with your boyfriend and your work? I often feel guilty when I'm doing work at home instead of spending time with my boyfriend, but I also feel guilty about not doing work when I do spend time with my boyfriend! I'm scared it's going to be even tougher when I'm full time. Advice ?!
I would love the Everyday Math Exit Tickets! 🤗
hi i love to watch your videos but i am a student i love to watch you. you are my role model i wake up earlier than you i wake up at 5:50 in the morning and i am in 6th grade only and school starts at 8:00 love you so much i want to be you when i grow up
baby family101 you're going to be your own awesome person! You can do whatever you put your mind to! Keep up the hard work :)
thank you so much you to keep up the good work Natalie Mojocoa
baby family101 I'm a student too I love these vids so much I'm in 7th grade
I cannot stop laughing at that last snowman, had to rewatch that part a few times over lol
Your vlogs are the best!!!
Class dojo is good. I like how you use it to monitor them being out. Do you project it in the front by the way?
Do you have any anger management tips for dealing with very difficult students and not loosing your cool? Or what to do if you've lost it and you're starting over ?
if you do that activity again, you can use coin stamps...
I have the same cat butt magnets 🤣
Is that ppt template at 30:52 up in your TpT store? I need it in my life!
Hiii ! Iknow this is an old video, but have you had blood work done? I know an under active thyroid can cause tiredness...
I am always looking forward to seeing your vlogs. Due to the time difference, when I wake up it is ready! After, I try to finish my lesson plans then, and you give me so many ideas. Can you suggest where to go to find better ways on how to use Powerpoint? I love your templates. By the way, I found some coin stickers at the Dollar Tree. They could be utilized for your Snowman Activity. When I saw them, I stocked up, because I knew I could use them later.
Thanks for the tip on where to get that super cute tee. I bought myself one today as a reward...teaching is tough stuff! :0)
You mentioned something about "swiping in." Do you need to log in at work so that the administration knows how many hours you are at school?
Where is that shirt from. We wear red on Friday for support of the Chicago teachers union. I need this one to add to my collection.
How often do you do running records per child?
How do you grade? I mean do you collect work as per piece or like a lot of teacher do, do you do booklets?
I love your videos!
Definitely enjoying the vlogs! 😊
Can you do a video on running records and how you do them and file them? Thanks!
Is the Guidance Teacher just an interactive Guidance Counselor? I noticed you mention " Guidance" as a weekly (?) subject, and was just curious. LOL
Wow, you look good. No makeup/scent needed. Air freshener?
You are fab!!! Do you have a grade level team or are you the only 2nd grade? If you have a team, do you share the planning?
congrats on your intensive student. what type of interventions did you use?
Hi M! I am a highschool teacher from South Africa and absolutely love your vlogs .... i check daily if you didnt maybe post. Few questions what programme do you use to edit your videos and how did you learn all these graphic design tips ?
I love your vlogs!
Hello! Noticed the book on your end-table, "Small Great Things" by Jodi Icoult. Would you mind doing a vlog on recommended literature for personal and/or professional growth? (maybe you already have) Just a thought. Thanks!
How was the vanilla cupcake coffee?!?
yes keep vlogging please!
where can i buy that shirt?!?
I love your videos........How do you stay up so late on a school night??
Do you get Duncan Donuts every day??
I would never be able to have that much coffee.....
Every one on this page go check out The lettered classroom out......
Please make videos more often and please keep making videos!:)
Yeah? How do you get parents you need to come/show actually come and show?
