Everything about this video makes me feel SO NORMAL. LOVE the 9,458 interruptions...real life, real classroom, real LEARNING

[@Recuerdos45391]

I wish my daughter got to experience this kind of normal. Now her normal is distance learning.

After teaching first and second grades for years, I'm now teaching Kindergarten. This video represents so well how difficult yet important the work of a Kindergarten teacher really is. Good job, and thanks for sharing this with the rest of us.

[@uptownflavor]

This was great! I teach the same way!

[@ValGaming1891]

I love it when you post a video with you and your kids keep up the good work! It feels like i am back in kindergarten again.

[@terrialvarado405]

Hi Greg. I just love your teaching style. I so enjoy everything you say and do. All of your tools and teaching materials. I do have a question. What did you use to attach your chime devise to the the lanyard? I did purchase the set and so excited to use it in the classroom. Thank you!

[@neha7690]

Awww they are so sweet! I want to teach kindergarten ❤️

[@sonialandry6149]

Greg, where did you get the bell from? I love the idea!

[@samanthanharrigan]

I got mine off of Amazon, it's a wireless doorbell! Game changer!

[@brendathornlimb7677]

Thank you this amazing

[@ms.erikaquinones5820]

What kind of phonics curriculum you recommend to use with this ABC teaching strategy ? Our school doesn't have a specific curriculum to follow. I would appreciate any feedback.

[@gregsmedley]

This is our curriculum. I created TKS BOOTCAMP and use it in my classroom. I’ve been using it for 8 years. tksbootcamp.com

[@jmark1039]

@@gregsmedley I started ABC BOOTCAMP this year because of this video. Me and my students are loving it! Thank you!!

[@kaylablankenship3584]

What is that amazing device on your lanyard?? I need one!! Great video!

[@pixiegirl1492]

Its a wireless doorbell

[@caitlinl6594]

How many days into school do you start bootcamp?

[@Jules-zn2bo]

Yes, I have the same question. What day do you preferably start bootcamp?

[@babylovealc]

My 5yr old started ABC boot camp the 2nd week of school

[@scap8104]

Can't believe you let all the children continuously call out.

[@gregsmedley]

You do realize this is the THIRD day of school and we're learning procedures and rules? I also don't mind them calling out because as adults we don't raise our hands to speak. Thanks for the comment.

[@JustBethTrying]

All the comments seemed to be appropriate and on task. And they only responded when he asked a general question. The kiddos seemed to be engaged throughout the lesson.

[@azil48114]

It’s better than having only one student answer. Having only one student answer the question only allows him to know that that one student is correct. You get a pretty good feel if the kids are getting it when they all speak. I do the same in my class but I use a hand signal for them to know it’s ok to “blurt” the answer together. It’s impossible to have kids raise their hands perfectly on the third day. I just went from 5th to first grade and finding it so different!!!!! I have a new respect for lower grade teachers. I have been learning a lot watching the morning meeting videos. You teach your kids amazing respect and model it too. I will be trying out the number game tomorrow. My class enjoyed taking off one shoe and putting it in the center of the circle. They said good morning to the student whose shoe was the match of the one they picked. Funny stuff. Thanks for posting your videos. I’m learning a lot from them.

@@gregsmedley You are the best! THank you for letting those kids be kids!

[@kizzy3563]

@@gregsmedley Amen to that! These are 5 year olds on their THIRD day of school and they are engaged and attentive. That's an amazing accomplishment. Love your patience and positive attitude!
