Classroom Management | Broken Pencils Procedure 2023

[@ClarissaA18]

Sixth year teacher here. I’m tearing up, for real! It’s so touching to see a teacher just do it *right*. The kids are so engaged and empowered. Y’all, I’m sure we all already know this, but Miss May is a MASTER. 👏🏽 TEACHER. 👏🏽 Take notes!!

[@OneFABTeacher]

You are so kind. Thank you so much for these sweet and encouraging words. ((Hugs))

[@johnlopez3996]

The teachers in the next grade level must really enjoy receiving your students. It is a wonderful feeling to see young students who have routines and procedures down so that the instructional day flows. Now that would be great if the sharpener really had a camera on it. I think that you are on to something mighty innovative! It must be something wonderful and beautiful to be able to teach without a mask. Take care.

[@OneFABTeacher]

Thank you so much. ((Hugs))

[@thisisowen]

The best gift you can get as a child is a teacher that is truly passionate about their job/students.

This is FABULOUS. You are, indeed, One Fab Teacher. Thanks for sharing this, Tiffany. I love the way you took your time with modelling. The kids were bursting with excitement to teach the new student what to do when a pencil breaks. LOL! Loved it and subscribed!

I am getting ready to cover a maternity leave as a long-term substitute in a first grade classroom - I am loving your videos. Although the classroom has procedures set up, your videos are a good reminder that the kids are very capable of doing things independently! Wish me luck!

[@OneFABTeacher]

They definitely can handle it. You will be FABULOUS!! ((HUGS))

[@katresealexander1311]

I love how you asked open ended questions and reviewed what was expected in class with the pencil and the sharpener. All a great learning lesson for the new kid and review for the old kids that of might of needed a reminder.

[@mom2boysteacher27]

This was so helpful! Thank you so much for modeling this procedure. Would you be willing to make a video showing the morning Calendar routine and what you do for showing how many days in school. I loved the visual number displays and would appreciate help with how to do a morning calendar time and how you do the days in school part. Please and thank you!

[@amberhanzeykelleres2478]

Videos like this are so helpful to me. I began teaching last year through an ARL program, and I need to see more procedures like this one. By the end of the day I am exhausted by all of the redirecting that I'm doing.

[@OneFABTeacher]

Glad it was helpful! Yes, the less redirecting the better. The goal is for them to be able to run the classroom as if you aren't there. ((HUGS))

[@AnnaLee-mn5us]

I ADORE your videos! They are so encouraging for me and always challenge me to make the kids feel loved! I’m a permanent sub for a school, and I was wondering if you had any tips for subs who are just parachuting in for the day without knowing any of the teacher’s procedures? Or any tips for subs in general haha! Thanks! Praying for you!!

[@OneFABTeacher]

I would see how things are flowing. If you don't like it, make it your way. Are you a permanent floater or in on particular class all year? Thank you for your sweet words and prayers. I really appreciate it> ((HUGS))

[@christinabilka]

Thanks to you, I use this system too! Do the kids have shared supplies at their tables? I’m having issues with never getting pencils returned.

[@OneFABTeacher]

Yay! No, they don't share supplies we have community pencils and crayons. Everything else belongs to them in their pencil box. ((Hugs))

[@lanijohansson-mendez289]

I teach 3rd and have been trying this system all year - modeling and explaining the process etc. My pencil box is empty by 10am everyday. It's a constant struggle for the ones who go up to the box to replace a dull pencil and select a new one. I'm hawking the pencil box constantly trying to catch the culprit(s). I feel like "Who Took the cookies from the cookie jar?" every single day. I need to repeatedly stop instruction to give a new pencil. Do I assign a pencil box watcher as a classroom job? Something has to work.

[@barriomeesh]

Wow. I feel like this is something I need to teach my high school students 😅

[@OneFABTeacher]

I think it would be great for high school. ((Hugs))

[@shychyenne]

Hi! Do you give them a certain number of pencils to start with?

[@OneFABTeacher]

Usually, two when I introduce. After that I don't keep track of how many pencils they have. They do a pretty good job at returning them when broken. ((Hugs))

[@shychyenne]

@@OneFABTeacher thank you!

[@allyroberts759]

Hi Ms. May! I’ve been looking through your videos to try and find the video in which you mentioned a website, but I can’t find it. The website kept your passwords and login information from other websites all in one place. If you remember, could you please remind me of the name? Thank you so much! 💜

[@OneFABTeacher]

Yes! I use to use Symbaloo! It's so awesome! I just don't use it anymore because I use Google Slides and I can embed all my songs and goodies on a slide. Symbaloo is so great and easy to use too. ((Hugs))
