#5thgradeteacher #firstyearteacher #classroomsetup
I've fell down a rabbit hole of teacher prep videos and I'm really enjoying it. Gonna be going into high school soon, I hope my teachers are as thoughtful as you are!
Haha same
Ya same. Actually really nervous cuz of COVID
Same here
Saph Ah! Nice, i’m in 8th grade and go into HighSchool next year! x
same!!
Having a poster in the bathroom is not weird in fact I love it when my teachers put posters in the bathroom.
Just use one of your stars to be the dot for the ‘I’ on your door display 😊
You should put the mirror inside the bathroom instead on the outside side of the door so the kids could like check out they’re outfit without being embarrassed
On the bathroom door you could do random bathroom and hygiene facts possibly even how to sign bathroom in asl so if you have quite time and they raise their hand to go they can know how to sign it.
Davanna Bruketta it would probably be better just to have them hold up ✌🏼 or 🤞🏻
For the lights... by high school teacher did the same thing. She put string lights around her classroom and only had 1 row of ceiling lights on but covered them in a semi-sheer construction paper, just to make it softer. You could get fabric too. Everyone loved it!
Your room is coming together nicely!!
everyone give her lots of love for teaching these tiny humans during this hard time! best of luck ❤️❤️
Hi! I love your library! Your classroom is coming together so nicely! Just a tip, flip your expo markers upside down. It helps in making the ink last longer!
I just saw that on IG last night!
Yes- "Click and Flip!" 😃
good idea! i’ll have to tell my mom about that, she’s a teacher.
I wonder if the kids realise how much effort teachers put into decorating classrooms, before I watched this I certainly didn’t
Watching you set up your classroom has been so comforting. I haven't been able to get back into my classroom in months and we are starting remotely. Setting up my room always pumped me up for the school year! Watching this made me feel so at peace and calm about the school year for some reason.🌞
You seem so kind and caring, wish I could have had a teacher like you when I was younger! 💙💙💙
Omg I am OBSESSED with your door! Gah!! loved catchin' up with ya Emma 🤗
I love how she put the spanish version of the signs, that is so thoughtful of other people!
Your library is great! The room is also coming together nicely!!
even if u do #2 your still #1
That’s literally the only thing that popped in my head when u said u wanted to put something on the back of the door in the bathroom😂😂
# is number
Behind your kidney table you should move the shelf’s to the corner on each wall and your rolling cart where you shelf with 3 shelf’s is right now, and also maybe you could put a lamp in between the 2 bookshelf in the corner!. Just an idea!! Good luck ☺️
So fun to watch your classroom set up vlogs! I really like how your door turned out :)
i was so confused when she showed the mirror and there wasn’t like a big camera , i was like “where’s the camera 👁👄👁”
SAMEEEE
Omg I just noticed
Yeah like what kind of camera is that
Omg sameee
Same I got so confused
**For the bathroom door** My high school has a like plastic thing (I forgot what it’s called but it’s like a big sheet protector that’s more heavy duty) and every week they put in new different words and there definitions. I think that would be a really nice idea especially since your teaching language arts.
For the sticky stuff in your bins that are on top of your book shelves, if you put a bit of hand sanitizer and scratch it with your nail it comes off right away and the bin won’t be sticky.
I don't know why I'm watching teacher Vlog Lol.. but your video is great love to see teacher doing work classroom. 👍🏼😍 Is look very nice your classroom! 💕
you will love having the shelves behind you table. coming together nicely! awesome you have a clean slate, literally.
Your classroom set ups are the highlight of my day !! Looks amazing 😍 Wishing you the BEST of luck with the (hopefully) upcoming school year !!
Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyuuhhugyg
I am LOVING these! I'm about to apply to transfer from community college to university and have a slow semester with 1 class so I'll be watching teaching videos and window shopping nonstop! Any advice is appreciated! Can't wait to see more of your content!
Love how your classroom is turning out! 💜 Hopefully you will get furniture soon!
Put your little desk right there on the wall that your corner is but beside the water fountain. Have it to where they can't see what is on your computer then
just me who loves the look of the classroom the mirror is really thoughtful and i love your library when i was at primary school i literally lived in my school library because i am a little bookworm it was my goal to read every book in there ad i got really far but i suppose the 3 years i put my heart to that was not quite long enough especially as they got more and more books
I love watching new teachers set up their rooms, you have such creative ideas! One gentle suggestion: you might want to code your books in your library so that the students know which basket to put it back in. Even 5th graders don’t always put things back where they belong. Also, being able to see all areas of the room is crucial. Kids love little corners and they know when they are out of sight. You probably won’t be at your desk much when the students are there anyway. I’m so jealous that you have your own bathroom!
Our kids aren’t allowed to put the books back since they have to sit out for 3+ days until being used again. I would’ve come up with a better system for putting the books back but since they can’t because of COVID, i’m not worrying about it right now!
Emma in Elementary oh! Now I understand why the cart was there!
You should put the mirror in the bathroom so they can see if they’re outfit is good but if it’s outside than they might get embarrassed
Looks great! I think putting your kidney table between the two windows would be a good choice. Your two shelves and rolly cart could be behind you. The library would be perfect in that nook across the room! Just a thought! Maybe when you get your furniture you can move these around to figure out the best set up. Good luck!
I’m a little late but for the bottom of the mirror you could put ‘and more’ or something like that in the black from the top, that would be really sweet. I also saw a comment saying you could put it on the inside of the toilet door and I think that would be nice as the kids might feel more comfortable in the private of the loo you know. Your classroom is looking so cute already!!!!
I love these videos because when I’m older I also want to be a teacher and it looks fun ❤❤
I would recommend keeping the doubles and put them in a little bin because sometimes kids like to have a book they read together
There’s so many ads on this video hahaha but I get it
Yeah but I do too
Lol
Yeah she needs the money #teacher salorie
I got premium 😏
If you just started the video how to get rid of them is you drag the red line thing to the end of the video restart the video and the ads are gone😎
You should put like a tray or something under your pencil sharpener so it doesn’t get messy.💕
Love it because I am in 5th grade and I am LOVING it.
teachers are always so organized!
I nearly fell asleep within 30 minutes, your voice is so soothing, and your videos are entertaining! :D
Bruh half of my teachers don’t even care if their rooms look nice for the kids. Whoever gets you as a teacher is lucky. 💕
My school is doing A and B groups where in week one, Group A is in person Monday / Wednesday / Friday and Group B is in person Tuesday / Thursday. In week 2, Group A is in person Tuesday / Thursday and Group B is in person Monday / Wednesday/ Friday. Makes sense, right?
For my school it’s group A goes in Monday and Tuesday, Wednesday is a cleaning day and group B goes in Thursday and Friday, and the days were not in school it’s just online, I’m going into high school and I’m group B
Dynamite Destiny same here, exact plan for my school!
S
That’s what I wanted to do for my school 😞
LUCKY!!!! I have to go every day:(
You could put a small mirror at the front so you can see the bathroom. You should face the expo markers down so the ink lasts.
I’m not worried about not being able to see the bathroom door! I’m only going to have 9-10 kids at a time. I will only be at my small group table for less than half of the time that we are in class.
Definitely think the mirror should go on the bathroom side
Wow this is coming across amazing! I love seeing how this is coming along
I like the music you had along with this though it is a tad loud and I had to adjust the volume some times
I love your channel and I can’t believe I’m just now finding you! I’m a first year teacher this year in elementary (digital art) and I love your style so I would love to see more teacher styles for clothes on your amazon storefront!
Ok so I don’t watch her channel at all I’m gonna start but can we all appreciate how much time shes not only putting in to make a beautiful class but also the time she put in to make these videos while having so much to do 👏
i dont know if its just me but i really wanna see a teacher put LED lights in their room because imagine that like omg
I’d be exited to go to school tho- it would be so funnn
Omg that’s what I was thinking
a d r i n a t r u j i l l o I was gonna say instead of ring light how about led lights
That’s what I thought at first also-
My teacher does and we have them on every day
your classroom is going to be so cute and cozy!
also, i love the door :)
I’m a first year 5th grade teacher too! I just got hired a little less than a week ago 😅 so I feel super overwhelmed with everything that needs to get done ! Our Back to school night is next week and students start August 25th! Trying to navigate the all virtual part is a little tricky but I’m starting to get things done !
I love all of the different diverse books!
I love the door! Keep it that way! SUPERR CUTEEE
Maybe only put stars at the top of the door? All of these videos is making me want to switch from engineering to teaching!! I love how your room is coming along!
I loved the 3 shelves together.
So entertaining, I wonder if my school is gonna open, we’re starting in the beginning of September. Make more parts please💓✌️
Mines is starting on September 14th
You could take that wide shelf and place it in your bathroom as a storage shelf.
For behind the door of the bathroom you should add like a poster that says don’t forget to wash your hands or something like that or a how to wash your hands correctly
So right now, your area is in the front right corner. Have you considered being in the front left corner? I dont think you'll have any major issues where you're at, but I do feel like the left corner would provide a bit more visibility.
Then you could put your library in the front right corner if you wanted it to wrap around like an L.
That is where my 70” tv on the rolling stand is going to have to go. I have complete visibility in the corner that I am going to be in now.
Gotcha! I figured I missed you explaining that, but thought I would mention it.
Putting the tape on the books is such a good idea!!😎
18:23 that’s my birthday! I know that this is an old video but I watched this video last year right before 6th grade and now here I am again watching this a year later! I’ll be going into 7th grade now! My school is a little weird, k-3rd is Elementary, 4-6th is middle school and 7th and up is high school. So I’ll be going into high school for the first time! Im a little nervous but still really excited! I like school!
I would put the health posters everyone is using on the back of the bathroom door. There are social distancing and handwashing reminders, for example.
Suggestion for the front door... in your inspiration photo, the stars are in a rainbow gradient. Maybe try that?
You could put up letters that say "Don't forget to be Awesome!" (DFTBA) on the back of the BR door or around the mirror. Tip for the stars: Move around the stars a bit so the same colors aren't so close together! Maybe that will help to make it a bit more varied. :)
I love the door so much! Your room looks amazing and is coming together so good!
Heard your comment about the library and kidney table and I had a suggestion. If you but your library in the corner like you said and do two shelves on each side. You should be able to fit your kidney teacher table space I. The front corner where you said that your TV would go. This was your kidney table and library are in that little cove and all your student desks can go from in front of the white board and back to the bathroom. Plus as a bonus if they put that second whiteboard in the fri t you could use part of that for small group instruction. If needed. Just another teachers perspective..I know it so hard doing your room.
The wagon looked like it helped alot
you can take off the frame off the mirror and stick the words on the sider
I don’t have a closet or any built in storage either 😩 I do have a very tall shelf that is bolted to the wall but that is no where near enough for storing materials and all other stuff! Try to ask your principal if they have extra metal closets. That’s what I plan to do
Also what kind of camera is that???? I just realized how tiny it is! So interesting
You are a legit heather 🥺🥺🥺🥺
the only thing i would add that idk if you have thought of is a worry box
You should’ve used a yellow star for the dot of the i. Idk why I just think it’s fitting
Great Effort and love being poured into your classroom. Awesome!
I love the let your light shine door ♥️
My fifth grade teacher had a corner with a. Blow up bean bag and things to help you feel happy and relaxed if your mad or sad about somthing from happened at home she got all the stuff at five below
The kissing hand was my favorite book growing up 🥺❤️
Love the long video!! Your classroom is so cute!! I love the door and I think you are doing an awesome job. 😍
You could put your desk in the corner by the whit board
Either put the affirmation mirror on the back of door or maybe on the back of the door put like a how to wash your hands thing idk lol
You could use contact paper on the door behind what you did.
I don't want to put contact paper on the door
You can do control d and it saves time
You have really a really creative mind!!
First I love you! Second would you please more PowerPoint videos? They are super helpful and I love them. I made all of them from your other one and I would love to see some more!!
An idea for the back of the bathroom door could be hand washing tips with laminated picture of bubles
I just found your channel/this series & I'm so excited to follow along because I'm starting to set up my own classroom too♡ I'm actually going in today for the 1st time since May & moving into a new classroom so I'm going to post my own journey as well on my channel, hopefully by tomorrow!!~ It's been an intimating task that I've been anxious about all summer because of all the unknowns & changes so hopefully videos like ours can help other fellow teachers out as it's nice to get inspiration & support from people who can relate! It'll be my 2nd year teaching & I teach 3rd grade~ what about you/anyone else?? Other than changing my seating chart to be more socially distanced & getting rid of items that can't be easily sanitized like rugs + pillows & adding distanced line/floor spots throughout my room, what other ideas do you/anyone else have for trying to make a classroom as safe as possible for our kiddos? I've always prioritized making kids FEEL safe, comfortable, & welcomed so it'll hopefully not be too challenging to also focus on making sure they are actually safe this year! Good luck to everyone else♡ Let's all support each other^^ Looking forward to the rest of this series~ feel free to let me know if anyone else is also doing a series like this so I can check it out too!!
everything looks great!
Nice
Horrible that the school doesn’t know if u will even get desks by the time school starts- but I love how the room is coming up
Yay finally I watched day 1 and 2 and have been waiting for day 3
Ok this is so random but if you had led lights you could have the kids like vote of the color of the day (obviously they would only be one when she has the tv on or something like that). But like when you guys are doing like morning work or like when they come in have them do a tally thingy on the white board. Idk just a thought
Your doing a fabulous job 👏👏👏Keep the great videos coming in 🤩💗
You should put border around your classroom door. Love it so far
I really just wish we went to school. Bc in my county we have to do 100% online for fall and maybe have some students go back in the next semester. & our first day is Aug 6
same, and we start august 5
You’re so creative
I hope my teacher this year for 5th grade is like you
Love your videos. Where did you get the three shelves bookcases ?
Image watching this series and then having her be your teacher ughhhhh I wishhhh
Where will the kids bags and coats go?
i think you should put a mirror on the other side out the bathroom door it would make since LOVE YA YOUR A GREAT TEACHER!!!!!
I think on the back of the bathroom door you can put "what if" facts and "who was" facts on it!
at hobby lobby there is a word search for a bathroom lol just something fun
That is the cutest little camera you use to vlog!!! What kind of camera is it?? I’m so sorry you don’t have furniture. That makes it so hard to envision a space. But you are rocking it girl! Live watching your series so far ❤️❤️
