CLASSROOM SET UP DAY 3! 

I don't think I would put any type of rug under student desks. Anything that spills (drinks, food, markers) will stain it and make it look dirty. Just a thought that I'd share, but it's totally up to you! Your progressing nicely on your new classroom! You could put the "Kind is cool" sign in the center of the board above your calendar. That way it would free up the longer board above.

Anxiety makes me really grumpy too - I decribe it as feeling itchy inside my head where I can't reach... much empathy, change is HARD even the fund stuff.

I love your hair queen. Can we appreciate how much time she spends to make these videos like she is such a queen .

i’m going into my senior year of high school this year and your videos make me so excited to be a teacher one day!!! 💗

The secretary and janitors are the best people to be on good terms with.

I love watching your classroom set up videos and all your vlogs! I hope your anxieties ease up as the room comes together! It looks so cute already!

I have always had a 25 minute drive to work... except for last summer. I was in temporary housing last summer and it was 7 minutes from work. I really ended up missing my longer commute. I need that drive to get my head in the game. Now I have a beautiful but easy country drive to work, and I love it!

Blue wall really is not bad at all, especially since you started putting stuff on it to tone it down a bit. School rug roll up put on top of cabinet since you don't have to use it just have to keep it, roll that sucker up. You should be getting a surprise from me sometime in the next few days. I hope you and your kidos enjoy.

Yay for a shorter commute! Almost the same situation here. I'm in the process of moving and my drive will go from 45 min to 8 min!

Have you thought of covering your blue wall with better than paper? I have seen multiple teachers do that.

These videos genuinely bring me so much joy to watch!! I’ve been watching your classroom setup videos since the start. This would also be my 3rd year of teaching, but i decided to take a break. Can’t tell you how much i miss setting up my classroom!! Best of luck with year 3! 💓

How exciting that you’ll be switching classes this year! I have a couple of suggestions: 1. Number your books with stickers. Assign each kid a number. That way, if something happens, like the book goes missing, it’ll help you track it down. I also used to do a book check a couple times a quarter, to make sure the books were still there. You’d be surprised how easily they vanish. 2. When I had more than one class sharing desks, I would turn the desks around so kids did not have access to it. Even if you tell them not to use it, they’d be tempted to put stuff in, including trash. I think the blue wall looks great, and when you fill it up, there won’t be much showing. Take care and hope you have an awesome year!

Watching you is so inspirational and always puts a smile on my face. I can't even get into what will be my new room to see what was left yet because I'm still in the hiring process! I also wasn't planning on teaching this year so I have pretty much nothing; I bought books for my library last week and a few other things for my library, but that's pretty much all I have because I'm waiting to be hired so that I have access to the funding I need and so that I know what's already in the classroom and what the school has that I can utilize (they have some community supplies, which is nice). I'm super excited, but I'm also nervous because school starts in two weeks and I have nothing done. I have accepted the fact that I'll still be working in my room after school has started and that my room won't be the best room ever, as much as I wish it could be.

It's the feeling of just being overwhelmed by knowing what you need to get done but not knowing HOW to get it done. The"where do I put..." "What would go best here..." "What arrangement for desks..." all those decisions make you feel defeated. Once you get your decorations and walls fixed, you'll feel less "grumpy". Do you teach cursive in third grade? If so, don't you need some cursive writing letters instead of manuscript? The less time to commute is great!

Oh my goodness! What a beautiful color scheme!

You are such an inspiration I hope you have an amazing year and your kids appreciate how kind and sweet you are and how much much love you put into your classroom 💕

I say roll up that school rug and put it on top of your cabinets! Worry about it later if someone needs you to put it out :)

I feel you on just wanting your room to be done! Today was my first day in my class and I'm already feeling like that.

Crooked posters drive me crazy, too. Did you know you can download an app for leveling? It makes it so much easier if you don’t have an extra pair of eyes.

Hi Bailey! I love all of your videos. They’re so fun and informative. Please tell me about your word wall. It looks awesome. I would love to do something similar in my class. Thanks!

She is the most hardworking woman , youtuber , and teacher

Your classroom set up vlogs are my favorite out of any creators I’ve ever watched

I'm studying elementary education right now and graduate April 2024. What kinds of stuff to do you recommend I start collecting now for my future classroom and what things should I be doing in preparation?

I love your class set up video! Where did you get your calendar and numbers?

We go back on the 8th and the kids come on the 11th of August. Your room is looking so cute!!! I am trying to get mine all finished up this week so I can be done with decorating and organizing a week before we go back, but yours looks sooo amazing. Im not sure about some of the stuff I have used to decorate. I used a Dalmatian print background on my big bulletin board and it just looks a little too much.

The district I'm in gives you a fob so you can get in whenever you want to go in. I keep getting surprised that not everyone can do that.

I finally have a short commute too! Yay for both of us 😀

Students will get use to sharing desk. I usually place name tags on the left and right of the desk. With this students know that their belongings should be placed where their name tag is. This will save so much time. When you switch you lose a lot of time.

i got into my classroom today! and the walls were tiffany blue 😬 so my first day of set up ended up being painting

I like the kind Is cool sign and the calendar wall with voice levels is super cute love the theme

I love classroom set ups

I know the blue wall isn’t ideal but it doesn’t look so bad once you got some stuff on the wall.

Believe it or not in my current classroom the ceiling is not perfectly level, so when I put paper up using a laser level, it was off from the ceiling,😩! The teachers in the building found similar issues in their room too. Sometimes you need to place items by sight and then, let it go. Good luck!

Your editor always makes me laugh with their funny little touches/additions to the vid haha

So happy for you and a super short commute. Can you share where your purse is from? Looking for one similar.

Good morning Bailey happy Tuesday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you

I love these videos!! ❤❤

Yay I’ve been waiting for this all week 🥰

I hope you are able to get your desk instead of the schools because I understand that not having much storage is annoying

What is the spray that you use to help with the glare on your laminated papers? I always have that problem!

Where is your brown purse from!? Love it!

What tools or resources did you use to prepare for your Florida teacher certification?

love the idea of hot glueing the poster to the tape. How did I go ten years not realizing this was possible lol

I think you were feeling overwhelmed as well. When I feel overwhelmed, I often don’t want to do anything.

Love you your such a great detacated teacher I wish you were my teacher . Do you know where you got your alphabet?

Hope all goes well for you!

“Dingy, crusty… gross” 😂

I’m not excited for classroom setup this year :/ i’m a 6th year reading specialist and I’m probably going to be in the hallway unfortunately :( I heard they were giving my tiny room the size of a closet to the gym teachers to store stuff so that puts me and all my things in the hall. Kids steal at my school so much so that I caught a student IN MY PURSE STEALING last year and the student attacked me when I tried to get my freaking wallet back so being in the hall is giving me severe anxiety:/

Are you doing other classroom video

I wish my school started early mine starts so late I love school so much mine doesn’t start until the end of August

What day does school begin for u it’ started for me August 20

Where is your map from?

If your school/district supports Donors Choose, you could create a project there to get a Kidney Table.

I don’t set up my classroom early because I want to spend my summer with my daughter.

Where did you get the pink chair cover for your desk chair??!! Please share link!

Claw clip hairstyle 💇‍♂ tutorial when?

It’s that time a year again School time doon

Incorporate the non aesthetic rug by rolling it up and storing it on top of the upper cabinets. Problem solved!! You’re welcome.

Yayyyyyyyy

It’s Audrey

Has anyone told you that you look like caroline from vampire diaries?!?

Like you new video today and you look really beautiful

you could keep the textbooks in the desks - one less thing to have to find a spot for
