Classroom Setup DAY 3 - Teacher Vlog

[@jengafurng]

I’m not even a teacher, in college yet, or planning on being a teacher... but yet I can’t stop watching these classroom setup video, they’re SO ADDICTING 😂😂

[@momof2girls810]

Girl. You did a lot in 5 hours!!! I always feel like I spend most of my time standing and staring. Teachers are funny because we all know the stand and stare!!!

[@Glacire1990]

I never realized how much work goes into setting up a classroom. It makes me appreciate the teachers I have had in my life.

[@AshleyRussellxoxo]

the classroom is really coming together! i love the colors!

[@marisahareid2667]

Yah it looks sogood

[@killerqueenb5658]

your students will be so happy to have a teacher who takes the time to make their classroom warm and inviting! They are lucky to have you! It's really coming together and looking great!

[@lizrunning5557]

Thank you for showing how you make your labels! That will be helpful when I start teaching next year!

[@amandabowersox1243]

I love this series! Nothing better than seeing a classroom come together

[@chaoticpix93]

This room is LARGER than the last one. So much more room for activities!

[@Geminii44]

I’m so happy that your room are those colors because those two are my favorite colors!!!💚💙

[@mariafritz]

We had mailboxes in our room. Spreading them into two sections across the room or a little farther away from each other is something we did because a lot of kids would get trampled when we went to our mailboxes. It was mainly the boys who ran to them and then the stampede would come and they would regret it. In the fourth grade we split them up by having two mailboxes, 1-14 and 15-32. It helped to slow us down and keep the injuries to a minimum.

[@flinryder7119]

Hi I’ve watched so many classroom vlogs and yours r by far the best ... your matching decor is killing it !! Xx

[@Stevo_Drums]

OMG! Thank you SO MUCH for the Powerpoint label idea! I’m labeling book bins, and this is just perfect! Your room looks AWESOME!!! 🙂

[@laurenthomas1014]

I have been binging your videos! I am about to graduate next fall and I always love seeing organization techniques and classroom decorates! You videos are so inspiring!

[@paigeyybb]

OMG FINALLY. I’ve been waiting for this. I love your videos and you’re so inspirational. I hope my classroom is like yours one day!

[@lynnettejensen5744]

I just discovered your vlog! I really am enjoying it! Even though I have been teaching for over 20 years you have given me lots of organizational ideas! I switched grades last year and this year I am changing classrooms. It is giving me a chance to get rid of old stuff and try new things. Thanks for the inspiration and ideas!

[@paytonlivingston5336]

I’m student teaching a third grade classroom and I love seeing how you organize your room. We are doing the Sharing the Planet unit right now. I may or may not have used some of your lessons over polygons from another video and it was a major hit. Thank you for your content! *edit: when I saw that video, I didn’t realize you also taught at an IB school!

[@elizabethc2801]

Love seeing you in your new classroom!!!

[@poppyevebunn]

This just gave me a new appreciation for my teachers xx

[@tallygirl2streasures717]

I'm having anxiety and excited at the same time watching this video. I will be teaching 4th grade at a new school this year. I'm going in tomorrow to see the classroom. Hopefully I can start moving in my stuff Wednesday. Then bring the rest Thursday and clean. My online order of bulletin board supplies should be here next Tuesday. Then I can start setting up. Preplanning week is August 6th, but for my sanity need to have most of the room done before then.

[@hannahvh4558]

I just can't get over how big your classroom is! I'm a newly qualified teacher in the UK and I've been in school this week to start mentally planning my classroom set up and I'm so jealous of how much space you have to play with!

[@AMBCrafts]

I love how everything in your classroom matches - is either that green or blue you chose.

[@marypersonal1586]

I love these videos! You have been such an inspiration for me as I have been deciding on my college major and future plans! Thank you so much for documenting all of these helpful tips, I am sure I will use them in the near future!!

[@parker6571]

Yessssss I have been waiting for this video!!! Is that just me?😂 I’m not sure why but when I watch your videos it brings me so much joy!!!😀

[@mariafritz]

Love the classroom so far, can't wait to see how it turns out!

[@chrystinajacobson7999]

I totally organize the same way. I also moved to a new room this year so it is a giant hot mess! Looking forward to seeing yours come together!

[@ally_bally6728]

Thanks for these. Just came across them today and I’ve watched all three. We don’t do so much set up in Scotland but I live your organisation. It makes me very happy. I managed to do some tidying and sorting before the end of term and I’m going in next week to start set up. Your classroom looks amazing and thanks to you so will mine. Going to subscribe now. 💕🎓📚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸

[@robertpruett563]

Thanks for all the great tips! I need to get organized for my first year. I will definitely use some of your ideas for organizing. Thank you!

[@sarahowens3752]

I love how real you are! Definitely one of my favorite KZbin teacher vloggers :)

[@anjxo7706]

love the classroom so far! You seem like the most awesome teacher :)

[@jenniferhodge6881]

Wow! Your students are very blessed to have you as a teacher. You are doing a great job. You did so much hard work.

[@abbeyabbott]

Thank you so much for sharing the info about how you create labels on PowerPoint. I never thought I could do it that easily and have them look so good! LIFE CHANGING!!!❤️

[@abbyschaub11]

Your videos make me so excited to be a teacher! Only 3 years left of college until my journey begins!

[@bbodalski]

I soooooo need to ramp up my classroom library! Love all the books!

[@kellyelisastoop]

As a teacher from the Netherlands i am baffled by how many books US teachers have in their classrooms! We have books per subject (like math, Dutch language, Spelling etc) for each child with workbooks and usually at least 1 book per child for free reading (so stories). Also we generally have way smaller classrooms and try to keep the decor to a minimum as to provide a calm learning environment. I guess the educational systems are very different anyway! Good job on all the hard work. Greetings from the Netherlands!

[@erino4781]

I just found your channel last week and it was kinda ridiculous how excited I was when I got the notification that you posted a new setup video. LOVE your channel and your videos (and your classroom so far) so glad I found you!

[@tracy_in_primary]

I love PowerPoint for making...everything! I'm really enjoying watching your organise your classroom. I feel like the things you're doing to personalise your space are actually do-able! Usually I feel overwhelmed and incapable!!!

[@SimplySteph99]

Your room is looking super cute!

[@ReadingwithMrsInlow]

I would be proud to have you teach my children or grandchildren. I am an elementary school librarian. Working in the school is a challenge but so worth it.

[@jordanann4383]

I love that you clean and set up the exact same way I do 😂😂 & I’m about to start my first year of teaching so it gives me more confidence that I have a “teachers”’ mind 😂❤️

[@trishaspiess9977]

Shout out to us second year teachers! I've been working tirelessly in my classroom as well. Yours is coming along fantastic! I absolutely love the color scheme. Blue and green were my wedding colors lol.

[@NewhavenDolls]

Love following your classroom set up journey! Thanks for sharing your progress with us! As a first year teacher this year, I've definitely got some inspiration from what you're doing! :)

[@PuttingFourthEffort]

you color scheme is stunning. definitely inspiring me to do something much more simple in the future!!

[@JoifullyNatural]

You’ve done so much so far! And, yes, time flies when we set up our rooms. I love how your room is coming together! Wonderful job! Where is your mailbox from? Are the shelves corrugated or wood? Thank you!

[@EarlyEDventures]

11mjsmommy it was given to me by a former teacher so I’m not sure, sorry!!!

[@EarlyEDventures]

What?

[@JoifullyNatural]

Early EDventures No problem. Thanks for the reply! Have a wonderful year! 😘

[@DeNay1908]

Love the Work hard, Play Nice, Be Kind quote..I am definitely about to make that. Also, I wish I had watched this before I made my Guided Reading labels...your way was so much easier!!

[@elizajulian2064]

Yayyy! Your book bins look great!

[@JamieB2357]

I love these videos and your channel! Last Year was my first year also and I’m also moving classrooms! Watching these videos gets me motivated to set up my classroom!!😊

[@courtneymartin7780]

It is so satisfying watching you organize everything! I feel like such a weirdo for enjoying it so much lol

[@aileenrivero5866]

Love the colors that you used for the classroom everything is looking great :)

[@emilyburns2788]

I've been waiting for this all week! Love you so much girly!

[@addafisher9]

I love these videos! Keep up the good work in your classroom!! 😃

[@jenniferhenriques6769]

Love these vlogs! Room is looking great! Not sure if you know these but your laminate will last longer and have a tighter seal if you cut your items out first ( I also glue them down to the laminator paper as well) keep up the good work 😊

[@SamBurgessmusic]

I LOVE this series! Can't wait for the next one :)

[@mariasibbio8844]

Thank you so much for these videos!! All my stress over my first year of teaching is paused for a bit when I watch these 😂

[@cheniag]

You have a very nice classroom! You would have been the teacher I would have wanted to be assigned to.

[@inshanityyy]

in the medical field but I liiiiiiiiiive for your vlogs!! Can’t wait to see how the room will turn out and how this year will be for you😊💖

[@SarahAnn91]

👏👏 you got heaps done! All that organising and sorting and things and thinking takes so long at the beginning of the year.

[@kassyvlogs1651]

New sub! I’m homeschooling my daughter and making her “school” area more organized and this has really inspired me!

[@mariafritz]

Using the T hand sing in ASL and rotating your hand is the sign we used for Toilet when I was younger. Instead of raising our hands and interrupting the teacher we would just make the sign when she looked at us and then we could go to the restroom. It worked fairly well for us, but it's different for each class.

[@Wannabecrafting247]

Love your colors!

[@justynabaranowska9935]

I love these videos !! I enjoy watching you do this & am so excited to see the final result 💕💕💕

[@Oyeah12]

Polska!

[@SweetCar0line30]

These are so fun to watch!! I was I was as organized as you!

[@steffenyenfield5289]

Hi there, it is a relief to see that I'm not the only one with so many books and resources. My question is... What are you using to cut up your letters? I am New Zealand and may need to get the equipment from Amazon. Thank you for your clips... It inspired me, to think deeper about the set up of my classroom.

[@jaysiq7210]

YASSSSS Girl! I was so excited to see this!

[@livinasimplebudgetfamilyli8782]

I'm so jealous, I am a stay at home mum now, but I am heading back to school next year after 4 babies and I will be teaching at a high school in Australia, we don't have our own rooms :( , I spend will my day moving around. Your room is looking so pretty, the kids are going to be so inspired, well done. This video almost makes me wish I taught primary, so I could have my own room.

[@Abc123gal]

Love those colors!

[@laniewisniewski1812]

I miss the nice cozy classrooms from when I was younger. I’m a junior in high school this year and the classrooms are so boring. Nice classrooms make the world of difference.

[@thepacificnorthwestkinderg6460]

You and I set up a classroom similarly.... Things everywhere. I feel at home watching your videos. :)

[@kristinlovecchio9714]

Love the way things are looking and the way you organize. I was wondering where you got your rug in your reading corner?

[@EarlyEDventures]

Kristin Lovecchio Target!

[@lizrussell1201]

Ahhh I saw your Jan guided reading book! My school does Jan also.

[@tea42000]

You can use the Silhouette to back letters by using the offset option. That way you don’t have to back them and cut them out.

[@EarlyEDventures]

Tanya Watson omg life changing! Thank you!!

[@amber4653]

Love your channel! Whatever made you decide to start vlogging? I think for your first year you are doing great with your ideas and organization! Good luck on year dos! :)

[@EarlyEDventures]

Amber Wachob I honestly just wanted to document my journey and realized I loved doing it!

[@hannahfinley1585]

i hope i can make my room as cute and organized and yours whenever i start teaching

[@tracifryhoff6293]

It's coming along! Where did you get your little paper cutter? Seems to work well on laminated sheets, sometimes those slider cutters don't work as well on them.

[@EarlyEDventures]

Traci Fryhoff Wal-Mart!

[@talesofasecondgradeteacher5564]

I have been waiting for this video!!

[@KissingerLauren]

I'm a first year high school teacher and I am in LOVE with the wood paper covering your wall. BUT I have a quick question. Do you think putting charts over the wood would be too "busy"? I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but am unsure!

[@EarlyEDventures]

Lauren Kissinger I’m planning on doing it but I will back then first!

[@ursulareese4194]

Love your color scheme! I'm switching to a teal, mint, black, white, color scheme this year. Where did you get the labels for the numbered mint dollar tree books bins on the top shelf? I have a ton I need to number as well. Thanks!

[@EarlyEDventures]

I created them in power point!!

[@Islena617]

You are the best... thanks for sharing

[@hypervenom5960]

These are fun to watch lol

[@lluviag1119]

I decide in stealing your book bin idea ! I just have to buy the books but I love it !!! Might steal your color scheme idea too 🙃

[@amywamie2113]

I watched a video were u had the name tags on your mail box off to the side of each space. If u use command clips (huge clips with like silver handles on them that fold back and forth) out a piece of tape or vinyl and u can add each child's name but.infront of each cubby space ( just a thought) 😀

[@EarlyEDventures]

Amy Selby you read my mind! That’s what I’m planning on doing this year 🤗

[@amywamie2113]

I seen Ur vid! Im not a teacher but I'm a youth worker so sometimes we have spaces we need to organise. Binder clips are called "command clips" here in northern Ireland! So glad u knew what I meant!!

[@aaronlanier]

I am in love with the color scheme and your new classroom! And by the way, my favorite color scheme is like a lime green and a normal blue! I started watching you since last week within your classroom set-up! I love the music you put in with the fast mode of every working clip, what is the name of the song?

[@EarlyEDventures]

Thank you!!!! Harmony - Ikson

[@lesliejacobs5988]

How did you do your burlap border? I love it!

[@EarlyEDventures]

Leslie Jacobs I recorded it in my day 2 vlog!

[@quinnkantner777]

Finally catching up on videos... how do you carry your cricut around? I just got one & am trying to avoid buying the cricut tote on the site..

[@Bee-cy3fx]

I loveee your classroom so far but doesn’t the mailbox fit on the other side of the counter between the window and the shelf? It would bother me so much having it infringes of the window 💕

[@PlayingMantis]

Your room is really gorgeous and well thought out. I just don't understand how anyone can afford to teach these days.

[@mr.knighton6774]

Hey! I took your advice and bought a teacher toolbox, I absolutely love it and got lots of compliments on it! Where’d you get your labels from?

[@mr.knighton6774]

Nevermind lol, just saw it in the video.

[@latoyalewis411]

Your room is huge!

[@gabriellechase8559]

I don’t know where this is but if you happen to live in Arizona I’d gladly take the books!

[@Lucky_kit6052]

How do you do the levels for you reading boxes? How do you add the color?

[@emilyjepsen]

Love watching these setup videos! I have a question about your crate seats... Do they hold up with 3rd graders pretty well? I'm debating making some but am nervous they won't last. Thanks!

[@EarlyEDventures]

Emily Louise they do!! But they got a little dirty

[@elyanasalas]

You are Inspiring my like crazy!!! 😍😍

[@mirandabruning3953]

I would love you for those books. Struggle is real as a first/second grade English teacher in Germany

[@cnorris02]

Your room is beautiful. Unfortunately where I live we cannot have that much paper on our walls due to fire hazards. We are only allowed to have stuff on bulletin boards and a few other things on the wall.

[@reneeo4284]

I love your classroom so far!! I am a first year teacher and I was wondering if you have classroom jobs for all of your students each week or do students rotate their jobs?

[@EarlyEDventures]

Renee O thank you!! They rotate every two weeks!

[@justynabaranowska9935]

Also what do you use to cut your labels ?

[@EarlyEDventures]

A paper cutter!

[@debbiepower8780]

As someone who lives in the UK, I'm always shocked how much teachers and students have to buy for the classroom. As we have every thing funded by the school, the only thing I buy is pens/pencils for my eldest who is 14. All books, paper and pencils are provided by the primary schools (4yrs to 11yrs).

[@shaunavotta3610]

I appreciate your videos and IG posts ❤ the color scheme, it matches what I have planned for my first class. What camera are you using because it's got great quality!

[@EarlyEDventures]

Canon G7x Mark ii

[@morgans5631]

Hey! I love watching your videos. I’ll be starting my first year teaching grade 5 this year. Just wondering where you got your mailboxes and #READ marquee letters! Everywhere I look they are so pricey! Thanks girl 😊✨

[@EarlyEDventures]

Morgan Johnston the mailbox was a hand me down and the letters I got from Michaels but I waited until they were on sale!!!

[@amandacas1665]

How long do you get to work in your class and when is the first day you’re able to go to your room?

[@EarlyEDventures]

Amanda Cas depends year to year but I have about 4 weeks this year! I normally wouldn’t use it all but since I had to change rooms I’m going to!

[@megano.6450]

Are you required to supply everything for your classroom? Does the school reimburse you for the things you buy?

[@EarlyEDventures]

Megan Ochoa I get a $350 reimbursement! Everything after that is out of my own pocket
