Hey! Welcome to my channel! My name is Sarah! I am an elementary teacher and I'm returning to the classroom after being a stay at home momma for the last three years. On this channel, you'll find a mix of teaching and non teaching related videos! Be sure to subscribe, comment, and follow me on Instagram so we can be friends! 💜
Hey! Are you going to make a classroom setup video again this year? I hope all is well with you and that you've had a wonderful summer! Good luck with whatever your plans are for this coming school year!🙂
The tree by the parking garage was a crepe myrtle. They have such gorgeous flowers! You are so precious and sweet, Sarah. I'm so happy about your faith and positivity while you were on this journey!❤✝️👶
Well, I'm just now watching your videos of when you adopted Joseph. I pray that everything has been going well with all the red tape for the adoption, and that, hopefully, everything is finalized now. It seems silly to be saying this now but "Congratulations!"💙🎈
@@Sarahs.HappyLifehello, how are you? I’m a new subscriber and loving your videos! I tried to find you on Instagram but couldn’t see you. Hope all is going well for you. I start kindergarten this year for the first time and I’m nervous, but very excited :)
Hi Sarah, I had just recently started watching your videos and the last video I had seen was fund raising for a second adoption. I am very confused. I am not wanting to bring up anything painful for you, but I wondered if there is somewhere that explains what happened. Thank you. I love your videos and Joseph is so cute and so smart!
The Miracle of Adoption: "Not flesh of my flesh Nor bone of my bone, But still miraculously my own. Never forget for a single minute, You didn't grow under my heart But in it." (Title: Not flesh by my flesh Author: Fleur Conkling Heyliger)
My husband and I are hoping to adopt. I am watching this crying happy tears for you. You are a natural w him. So loving gentle and kind. He ia so lucky you are now his mom. Congrata ❤😊
You got some great books! For books that I'm interested in buying, I always go to RU-vid first before buying them. Listen to the read alouds and look at the pictures to see if the book is worth it or not.
UFLI is amazing! I started late last year with 2nd graders and they really got solid skills that were lacking from COVID times. Now I am in Kinder and plan to use it but incorporate more hands on and music, which is so easy!!! UFLI has so many free resources and prepped easy to follow lessons. Have fun, your room is looking good girl!
I used UFLI last year! My best advice is make use of the free materials on the website, including the slides they provide! Makes prep super easy. But my kids loved UFLI!
Yes! She comes in at 2 scheduled times for 30 minutes! And the other day she also came in an extra time in the afternoon to help put things in take home folders. I'm not sure if that's going to be an every day thing or what. 🎉👏🏼
Hi Sarah! I have been watching since your first ever classroom setups and sent you some wishlist items way back when. I think I missed some vlogs, and I know it’s personal information, but I’m so sad to see that you and Dakota are no longer married. 😌 I have been a single mom of 2 boys, so, I know it’s so hard at times. I’m praying for you and I think that you have done so much work in that classroom and it looks amazing already!!! ❤
Be careful with push pins, especially in a K class. When I was in gr. 1 I stepped on one that had fallen off the wall and it went through the sole of my shoe into my foot. It both injured me pretty badly and destroyed my favourite shoes by putting a hole in it.
Remember with Kinders the more things you have out then they have the less chances of running around the classroom except for on your rug. Otherwise I love it. I love that wall paper.
Oh my goodness! Thank you sooo much! I'm excited!🎉❤🎉 I love decorating too! And I think the whole cleaning and decorating process is so important because now that I have spent so much time in every area of the room, it feels so much like my space. And it just makes it more special! Thank you for all of your support!
@@Sarahs.HappyLife You're very welcome! Setting up a classroom with all of the meetings and trainings is stressful. All but 8 of my 37 years were in an school that was not air conditioned (the new building was, thankfully!). I can't even imagine how hot it is in Texas in August!
I use and love UFLI!! I teach kinder also and once you get the routine of it it’s amazing! Kids love it also (I think because it’s a very structured routine) and would ask for it. I was amazed at what my kids were able to do by the end of the year compared to other years 🎉
