I’m so excited for you!!! I still haven’t been given access to my room. It was a disaster when I moved my stuff in before the year was over, but construction is still happening 😩.
Thanks for doing this, friend!!! I loved learning more about you. First of all, I cannot imagine that Florida heat and humidity 🤮 Family time is the best and I love hearing your toddler in the back group ❤ Oh my gosh I love Schitt’s Creek!!! I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer ❤️
Wow! Elementary to Middle school is a huge change. I did it a few years ago. Middle school is so different from elementary. The students can be the best or worst. They are little kids in big bodies. Enjoy!
Change is difficult. Big hugs to you! Fingers crossed this is a good fit for you. You are such a thoughtful and dedicated educator. It would be a shame to lose you as a teacher. I didn't realize this was a career change for you. What was your previous career? I had a pivot too! When I lived in the US I worked for a non-profit residential program for adults with developmental disabilities. When I moved overseas to Turkey I switched to an ESL teacher. I love helping people- it was a natural fit for me here. Have a great weekend! I'm rooting for you. You should do a Q&A video.
I definitely understand loving the students and job but needing to change districts due to other reasons. I did that three years ago after being at the same school for eight years and it was hard. But it was best for me and I don't regret it. I hope you like your current position enough to stay or something that interests you within the district comes up! You've had so many changes this year. How stressful! I also want to ask about the girl in PE. She is getting a bad grade because she doesn't have the right pants? If her family doesn't have the means to buy them, I feel like that's pretty harsh. You are so kind to get her leggings!
@@resource_resilience that was exactly my thought too that’s why I grabbed a few pairs of leggings. Thank you! I’m hoping for the best. So far so good. 😊
I love this idea. My daughter is a teacher in a really tough school--alternative high school--and I think she could use this for the Holiday. Thanks for the ideas.
I love how you find such fun things for each grade to do! You are so kind to let the student stay in their class for the party. It really is the little things that make a BIG difference. Keep up the great work.
Thank you! I used this resource for the para binders - www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Paraprofessional-Binder-for-the-Special-Education-Classroom-Para-Binder-2720095?st=a5eded9fc10fc37f6b6b71ecb393079b 💖💖💖
Don't get rid of the easel. It is an important tool. I know set up is always overwhelming. Trust me I have been teaching over 20 years and I still feel that way. The classroom is coming along even though you don't feel that way because you are in the middle of it..
Maybe u could put some kind of mat around the bottom of the 2 extra dests to section off that side if calm down area. Was gonna say fabric but padded would be better if someone needs to calm themselves.
Your current pile situation rivals mine last year, when we finally got in the room and everyone in the school just dumped all my stuff in the middle 😂😂
The rolling whiteboards can lock so those are great dividers. I have three in my room! You can store extra clothes in that one, just double up ziploc baggies. It's okay to try something and change it.
