Biggest Back to School Haul Ever! | Target, TJ Maxx, Michael's, Big Lots, Dollar Tree & more!

Hello teacher friends! Most of what you'll see in this video is decor or organization! Open me for helpful info!
♡ see more...
This video is my first ever haul, and it's a big one! I collected many of these items during student teaching. Now that I've actually been in my classroom, I know there are a few more things I really want to pick up!
Many of you always ask about my rug - it's from Lakeshore! It's their largest size and unfortunately very expensive. I created a DonorsChoose project and contributed about $200 of my own money and then family and friends helped to raise the rest. Here is the link: goo.gl/iuSwnJ

OMG. I’m 10 and I want to be a teacher someday and you are a huge inspiration for me. And what is crazy?...? I live in Chattanooga!!

[@katelynbray5531]

I'm not a teacher or becoming a teacher but I just love teaching videos, weird I know. But I'm obsessed with your videos and I just found you and can't quit watching! I'm excited to watch you grow 😊

[@mysecondarylife4670]

I see a things i regret buying video in your future ;)

[@MrsCallsCampers]

UH YEAH. haha :)

[@oliviaerkhart1295]

Use your succulent tray for your pencil sharpener. They can be a little messy, and you can clean your tray out easy peasy!! Love everything 😍😍

[@MrsCallsCampers]

I didn't even think about a tray for my pencil sharpener! That's an amazing idea! Thanks!

[@msveligor1808]

You could use the stones as worry stones and put them in the wooden bowl so students can retrieve one if they are worried. My 4th grade students love the worry rocks when they are testing. It really relaxes them.

[@lisafurubotten9713]

I use the water sprayer on hot days but I tell my kids it's "quiet spray". As they come in on hot days I tel them it's a quiet spray kind of day and as they come in and sit, I have them get out their AR books to read and if they are quiet and settled down, I go and spray them. This prompts others to quiet down and stay on task so they can get sprayed too! My third grade kiddos love this!

[@porshag8720]

Hey! I am about to start my second year of teaching and I am enjoying watching/ cheering you on as you prepare for your first year! I live in Murfreesboro too which is so cool. I’ve never watched a KZbinr that lived so close. We’ve probably crossed paths and didn’t even know it.

[@stephaniemachado7146]

Lol everything you say “so I got it!” And “they had a great sale!” Is EXACTLY what I say when I shop! I love everything! Those colorful organizational bins are beautiful and everything from Target is perfection!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

YES! You understand me!! haha :)

[@mallorycandace]

When I taught first a part of my morning work was counting collections. The kids would get a tray and a container of various things I kept to count and went off to practice counting

[@doodlebugandthediva8570]

Hi! My names Peyton and I’m 12 years old. I want to be a teacher when I get older so i love watching these kind of videos. I’m really hooked on your videos already! Please do not stoppp!! I also really love putting fourth effort!! 😁💞

[@MrsCallsCampers]

She's super great! Thanks! ♡

[@peytonclaar]

My name is Peyton too!!! And I want to be a teacher also!!!!

[@peytonclaar]

And I’m almost 12 but I’m still 11

[@haydenhaha3574]

hello!! im 10 years old and really want to be a teacher and your really inspiring! i know im really young right now but im really looking forward to becoming a teacher when im older! thanks for you inspiration!

[@AmandaTeaches]

Aww just found your channel and love it! Cant wait to see your paper flowers and see how you decorate your classroom. It looks like a park with those leafy cushions and the leaf rug, so cute! New subbie!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

I'm happy you commented because now I can watch your videos! Thank you so much!

[@yamihoyos2752]

I'm a first year teacher (4th grade ELA) and after watching this video... I don't feel so bad anymore about how much stuff I have accumulated. LOL ... J/K Great video!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Glad I could help! :) haha

[@2348523]

Now THIS is a haul!

[@randomdollface]

I think you should do something where you can make clouds on the wall also for decor and to mimic the sky since it’s a nature kinda thing. (:

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Hmmm Jordan....not a bad idea! :)

[@maricelamedina5143]

This takes me back to my first year as a fourth grade teacher & I too felt overwhelmed..can’t say I learned a lesson though 😆 I still get carried away at times ❤️

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Not sure if I want to hear this, or NEED to hear this haha! :)

[@cassandraroberts3711]

I love going back and watching these videos! Hopefully it will bring you good juju in the job search process! Thank you for the AMAZING content. 🧡

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Thanks for watching, I remember you still!!! Thanks for the well wishes, too!

[@rhoyalt_time8992]

What a haul. I will tune in again to see how you organize all that stuff! LOL

[@pennywilson2956]

You could use one of the planters or little tin buckets you got for holding all of your expo markers or extra supplies for the kids by the pencil sharpener

[@pennywilson2956]

Or you could use them for little popsicle stick things for calling names

[@aimeedavis5147]

Omg you mentioned you moved, my best friend lives in the city you live in and her daughter is in 1st grade!

[@PuttingFourthEffort]

i have the same stamp!! love it((: you totally went first year teacher crazy with all of your shopping. i remember when i did the same thing lol!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

I think crazy is just the right word 🙈 and I love love love my stamp!

[@positivelypre-k4877]

I think those rainbow "post it's" are actually pieces of paper instead of sticky notes. But I am so excited you made your channel because I love it!

[@kathybrannon8166]

Love your excitement about all the things you've purchased for your classroom. I'm sitting here in mine looking around and have been trying to decide if I want to change my colors/theme this year. You've convinced me to lean toward the natural look. I already have a lot of natural, burlap, plants, and galvanized items so it should be easy to add some additional accents. Thanks for the inspiration! Oh, I had an idea about your task card storage boxes which you may have already thought of. I'd organize them by subjects into the various colors: and arrange them with like colors grouped together: math cards in the blue, science in the green, vocabulary in the pink, etc. Might be easier to find what you're looking for! Excited to see the remainder of your set up videos. I see some binge watching this weekend! ;-)

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Wait - I might have to go back and look at my colors and try that! If I have enough, that is a really great idea!!! Thank you so much! And send me pics of your room on insta :)

[@kassandraverdugo3728]

Loved your video! I think the wall rod would be great to hold some of your extra chart paper on some rings and just hook it on there. Just a thought. I can't wait to see the rest of your classroom setup series!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Kassy vee Hi there! Thank you for watching and for the great idea!!!! 💛💛💛 you're so sweet! I have the second one coming very soon ☺️

[@emmaderousse588]

That mini fan from 20:37 was my FAVORITE THING ON EARTH my freshman year of college. It was so helpful & worked so well! I used it literally all day so it quit after about a year and a half of use but it was so nice for those 18 months!!!!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

haha I really like it :)

[@theglamteacher7386]

This haul is life lol I loved it!

[@bew1972]

That "worry" plaque is GENIUS!!! EWhat an absolutely perfect addition to any classroom...older or younger but definitely a great idea for the first week of 1st grade! Love it!!!

[@bew1972]

Also, I can't remember who I saw do this but...I saw a speech therapist, who worked in a school with small groups, give each of the kids in her small groups(usually with 4 or 5 kids) each one of those finger puppets and used them in her reading group. After each page she read to them and before she turned the pages, the kids had to just lift a finger if they understood what that page was and if they didn't put a finger up she would stop reading and go over the page. I also saw her use it in the classroom as a classroom management tool...she was having trouble with kids trying to talk over her and over each other so she used the finger puppet as a way to teach them that the only person who should be talking is the person with the finger puppet. If the child raised their hand, she'd pass them the finger puppet and they could talk. Now, I think that might take a bit too much time if you had to do that all day, every day, but maybe on those "chicken nugget days" when the troops were restless. (that was something we all joked about...that the kids seemed to be crazier on the days that the cafeteria served chicken nuggets for lunch haha) Lots of great ways to use the finger puppets!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Wow Bridgette! That's an amazing tool!! And thank you - when I saw the worry plaque I was blown away by the fact that I hadn't seen anyone with one before!

[@kmarie7463]

Loved this haul!! You bought some great stuff!! Stickers are great for having students do sticker stories too! They place stickers on a writing page and then write a story about them. My Kinders love it when I put them in our writing center. :-)

[@MrsCallsCampers]

I do think that would be a great use!!!!

[@kaitlinseffernick1199]

I have a tip, when I was in fourth grade my teacher would give us tickets if we did something good we would write our name on it and choose when we would put it in the bucket (some of us collected them all year). Once a week she would choose 5 names and those people got to choose something from a bucket. Almost everything in the bucket was from the dollar tree. Also it gave us something to look forward to every week.

[@ReadWriteandShine]

So many things! Love it! Definitely the biggest teacher haul I have seen! 😅 Loving your personality! Off to see all your videos!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Hey Miss T, nice to meet you! Thank you!

[@LeenAileen]

Currently binge watching your videos!! I’m from McMinnville (about 45 minutes from Murfreesboro!) I have done two practicums with Tennessee Tech in the Tullahoma area. I find out soon where I will be student teaching! I would love to hear your experience in the Murfreesboro area. I have thought about moving! Can’t wait to see what’s in store for you! Good luck!

[@Tina-hd9gc]

Your chanel just popped up today, glad it did! Love it 😊hi from a new subbie👩‍🏫

[@peytonclaar]

You would be my favorite teacher EVER!!!!!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

:) love you!

[@kyraannfranklin8772]

It would be awesome to have you do a how to vinyl items using your Cricut! I have one and I need help!!! You are so good at using yours.

[@daniellecorreen1255]

Wow! I live in Shelbyville! That’s so cool💖

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Close friends!

[@miss.kindergarten7323]

Be careful spraying students with oils and rubbing chap stick on students hands...different schools have different policies and I would highly suggest getting individual parent approval first. Many students have allergies and you could spread skin diseases you are unaware of.

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Of course. I am sending out specific letters at the beginning of the year to avoid any problems!

[@chelsea7510]

Love the content!!! I am a new teacher ❤️

[@audrey4020]

This is my favorite kind of KZbin content everrr

[@haileywert6398]

I just found your channel and I love it. You had inspired me to be a teacher! Everything you found is so cute!

[@haileywert6398]

Even though I didn't even graduate yet you inspired me too me one

[@jackiefanson736]

My Five Below has a TON OF MINI ERASERS.... just an FYI. 😁 Great videos! Best wishes for a wonderful school year!

[@micaeladodge4623]

I just finished my first year of teaching in Rutherford County! I’m headed back to Knox County this year though which is where I am from.

[@emilycarter9477]

OMG! You're a Tennesseean!!! Woohoo!! I am a high school teacher in Jefferson County, which is about 45 minutes from Knoxville!

[@iteachteachers3370]

I love that your haul comes from places in addition to Target! LOL. I will definitely share your channel with my elementary education students. I just started my channel and would love some honest feedback! Thanks again for sharing!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

All the places! I love me some Target but you definitely have to shop around!

[@lilantern]

I'm really enjoying watching these videos, can't wait to see how your classroom looks when you're done! I thought it was so cute how much you talk with your hands, when you would say "I went to two stores" and held up the number 2 with your fingers I thought thats probably from being a grade school teacher, haha!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

I think it is, too! I have a few ESL kiddos, so they'll love that!

[@alexagisme]

GIRL. This teacher haul is SO satisfying to watch!! I'm going into my junior block this coming fall and seeing all these cute teacher things is making me so excited to get my own classroom one day!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Thanks, Alexa! I'm glad you had fun! :) It is the BEST feeling to have your own room. You'll get there, girlie!

[@alexagisme]

Omg I bet!! Vlogging and being apart of the online teacher community is something I want to do one day too, so thank you for inspiring me!! I swear, you and Pocketful of Primary are THE BEST. Best of luck when the school year starts, you're going to be an amazing teacher! (:

[@nyrosa4309]

I feel like for the hooks under your whiteboard you could hang bins or baskets along each hook

[@ericasteele4106]

This makes me so excited to have my own classroom one day.

[@MrsCallsCampers]

It'll be everything you wanted and more :)

[@savannahhubbard8409]

I just subscribed today and now I'm binge-watching your videos! LOL. :)

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Welcome to the family :)

[@karaanastasia3996]

OMG I figured you were from chatt just from some of the things that you have said! LOVE your videos I am student teaching and your videos make me so excited for the future!!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

That's where I went to school, yes! I hope you have the best time ever in your placement! Good luck!

[@theuniqueeducator8808]

That intro music is awesome!!!!

[@haleighjones5568]

I love Murfreesboro schools! I attend MTSU and I’m about to start Student teaching. Love your videos!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

We might run into each other! :) Thank you!

[@bel_grnt3026]

Just for a heads up, the dry erase markers are a lot harder to get off than just regular chalk.

[@SarahNichole]

Did you get to pick your wall colors? Blue is perfect for your theme!

[@heatherthomas333]

Great finds and I love the natural theme for your room. Where did your school get that wonderful classroom rug?

[@MrsCallsCampers]

I got it funded through DonorsChoose! It's from Lakeshore!

[@laniesnell9254]

Awesome

[@dianeramsey4113]

I hate fluorescent lights too they give me MASSIVE headaches!

[@PixieMagicCo]

Can you do a video on how to use your circuit and make labels? I have a circuit and can’t figure it out and want to make labels for my classroom.

[@TeacherInspirationStation]

TheKrystalstyles I need to jump on the circut bandwagon! 😂

[@jessemenard1851]

a Cricut?

[@TeacherInspirationStation]

Beebo is Baebo Yes! A cricut! 🤦🏾‍♀️ 😂

[@TheKimberlyott]

I just found your classroom!!! I’m doing a happy camper theme this year and found your channel looking for classroom ideas!!! I’m from Knoxville!! So we are kinda close to each other!!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

That's so awesome!!! There's so many amazing things for camping! I am doing more general nature in my room now but I can't wait to see yours!!

[@makaylalong8906]

We live about an hour away from each other! I live in Kingsport near Johnson city

[@bluebirdlanecreations7455]

I now need 2 things: 1. A Target run 2. A nap. Thinking about putting all of this away wore me out!

[@ashleymitchell6106]

The rainbow post it cubes from Office Depot aren’t post its.. they don’t have any sticky on them (at least the obese I bought) I was so bummed :(

[@bradysmith319]

That raccoon looks like pocahontas sidekick

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Teacher friends! I hope you are enjoying your summer! And have a good snack because this one's a biggie! My favorite back-to-school item in this haul is definitely the ottoman, but tell me yours!

[@morganpelton9557]

So just a question, I am going to be going to school next year to be an art teacher, and j was wondering how much of your supplies cost comes out of pocket? I also was wondering if their is any form of compensation for the supplies?

[@MrsCallsCampers]

It depends on the school you are at! At my school, for example, every teacher has a budget. It varies depending on your school. New teachers at my school get a little bit more! It really depends. You can write some things off on your taxes, as well. Hopefully you go into a room with a lot of supplies already there! Good luck babe!

[@CRASSHx]

Obsessed with your rug. Where is it from???

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Lakeshore!!

[@xoxofox232]

Wow you brought a lot. I’m currently a sophomore in college majoring in elementary education and out of curiosity. Could u do student teacher videos. Also what is your concentration?

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Hi there! I am PreK - 3rd :) I student taught in first, and luckily I was placed in a first grade room! I plan on doing some videos on student teaching/interviews/etc., but I'm not sure when I will film them...they are on my to-do list. Thank you so much for watching!

[@yinellyrod23]

Yes, please do that video when you get a chance!

[@Sunshinepath]

Plzzz doo

[@chrissysuniverse5836]

Do you know where you got the hello rug from that’s my new theme for my room and I would love to use that a cute decorative floor mat

[@MrsCallsCampers]

I think Walmart a while back!

[@chrissysuniverse5836]

Mrs. Call's Campers do you think they still sale them

[@deetee8100]

In my classroom, I only turn on two of 3 rows of fluorescent lights, so I put covers on some of the lights.

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Do you have separate switches? Or do you mean you black out the others?

[@deetee8100]

Oh, I have 3 different switches. I guess not everyone has the same.

[@MrsCallsCampers]

That's so lucky!

[@mayelinskalerud8090]

Do you get money from the school to buy things for your classroom? Love your videos x

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Just a little!

[@ConfessionsdeManon]

oh my god, how much money did you spend on all the supplies? and also did you have part of it financed by the school you're working at? great job :) and very nice video!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

NONE of it was financed by my school. I wish I knew how much I actually spent!

[@Hagugugu]

I have no idea why Im watching your videos.. I am at college, from Czech Republic, we have completeley different education system, I have nothing to do with this career But I just love to watch your videos, I love how enthusiastic you are about it.. and I love stationery as well.. It amazes me, how different your system is, 99% of teachers in CR just learn the kids, no decorating, no creative teaching, no enthusiasm which is so sad for me ://

[@annaleighanichols7762]

Are you going to have a prize box? Full of candy or little toys and or mini hand sanitizers?

[@MrsCallsCampers]

No ma'am! Just coupons!

[@TheOtherLifeOfMaryK]

My future in-laws live in Murpheesboro!

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Wow that's so exciting!

[@moniqueharper4655]

15:47

[@kyliegarza3856]

I wish you were my teacher

[@thegr8fullhome469]

omg. you bought a lot. i'm uber broke and i cant buy anything. i start my new job next week

[@amandamayo3119]

Do you work at an all girl school? Everything seems girly

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Nope! I work at a normal school :)

[@Carriel5547]

OMG stop buying stuff people! All this plastic eventually ends up in landfills.
