WEEK IN MY LIFE AS A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER! team trivia, reading, + organizing

[@saralawson5806]

[@mehreenhasan3]

"Teacher tired" love that 😂😍

[@fivefootoneteacher]

hahaha me always

[@NatalieBarbu]

SO HAPPY WE COLLABED!! You are the sweetest and love this vid. Can't wait for you to visit NYC and for me to be back in FL!!

[@Jennifer.Nguyen7]

Natalie Barbu omg I love the both of you 😩

[@fivefootoneteacher]

YAYYYYYY

[@kevinspurlock1016]

@@fivefootoneteacher omg i love you

[@kevinspurlock1016]

omg I love you

[@sarahryan3036]

I love that you let your kiddos try to get other sources of credit. You truly care about them and their success I love that about you.

[@karsynwetzel3805]

Your students are so lucky to have you! I feel like all my teachers don’t care about their jobs or are just in it for the paycheck. I wish I had a teacher like you!!

[@cheerlove411]

karsyn wetzel me! That’s why I wanna be a teacher, I had tons of teachers like seemed miserable and would just yell at us for stupid things so I wanna be a memorable teacher!

[@sooh6299]

11 years into teaching now. I'm ready for the summer break, but you're so right about thinking about students at all time. I spent last summer trying to find inspiration to do things that would be more interesting and fun for my students, while at the same time reaching their learning goals. That's when I found your channel :) When I've been having a rough patch this year, your positive and cheerful videos have helped me remembering the important stuff, and that has been a blessing. I hope your summer break will be relaxing and inspiring so that you can continue to be a positive influence in your students' lives!

[@EllaWright897]

I’d loooove to see a video about all your favourite teaching approaches and activities you do with your students, and little things you do for your students to make their day! I’m a first year pre-service teacher and currently collecting ideas from all the educators that inspire me (you!) to change up how we learn in the classroom🥰

[@Jenna-lo1yp]

My friend the other day in class, asked who my favourite teacher is. I said Five Foot One Teacher, and she goes who the hell is that.. Totally forgot I just watch you on youtube 😂

[@iritliberman8499]

Hi!! I was an English teacher in Israel for 40 years!! I enjoy watching your videos!! Teaching never ends. There is so much to do at home. It is very hard when you have children of your own. Hope you will have an easy end of the year In Israel they finish the year on June 30. Have a nice weekend. Shabat shalom. Irit

[@saraisreading4231]

I LOVE that you took notes on that socratic seminar where the students could see it. It might encourage students to talk if they don't have lines to their name, be a gentle reminder to students who take up a little more than their fair share of space...love it. I'm going to steal that when I have my own classroom next year. Hooray for transparent grading practices!

[@zarahsgful]

Just finished my first semester student teaching and you got me through it! Thank you for being such a light on KZbin☀️

[@fivefootoneteacher]

awww you are so sweet!! so so glad that you just got through your first semester, how exciting!

[@Rheannon_Rheannon]

I feel like every English teacher I’ve had has always been so considerate of students having to worry about other classes along with English and just seeing you talk about how understanding you are of that makes me miss school 😔😔❤️❤️you’re so so sweet!!

[@katieschultz968]

come home after a long week to see a HALF HOUR five foot one teacher vid is exactly what I needed... #blessed

[@elliepasquale5479]

Oh my goodness - Eleanor And Park is one of my favorite books! It’d be a dream to have my Literature teacher read it to my class. ☺️

[@meganringer1755]

watching your videos always makes me even more excited and reassured that teaching is for sure what i am supposed to be doing! Just finished my first year in college!!

[@gracewitzig4675]

she just gives of the vibe of sunshine

[@fivefootoneteacher]

This is so sweet

[@alejandrabermejo2946]

omg you are an amazing teacher! definitely someone to look up to while i go through this process!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

thank you so much, means the world!

[@rochellemayer1002]

I have the white shirt that you wore from altered state! It is like my FAVORITEEEE shirt to wear and it goes with so many things! Perfect for formal things and informal things!

[@madi__k1640]

The snap shot of the week you do for your students sounds very similar to the planner check my English teacher puts on her website, but we’re required to print it out and staple or glue it into our planners and she gives us five points each week for doing it which is a nice way to stay organized and pass high school.

[@simplyeleanot]

I love watching teacher vlog's!! I am an elementary education major, but watching your videos makes me think about high school!

[@isabellamelius1229]

I want to be a teacher someday and i just want to tell you one thing, keep on being a positive and happy teacher and your students will be inspired by you.

[@erinsmeraldo9008]

definitely post a last day of school vlog!!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

For sure!

[@kategibson4302]

loved how you said "teacher tired" haha

[@arihartsfield2868]

AHHH im in high school and I wish you were my teacher!!!!! you are so positive and happy! My school needs a teacher like you!!!

[@Gab-g]

[@daniemarie5320]

[@sreegollapudi3358]

[@dakotacorry4060]

[@fivefootoneteacher]

Yes ... a teacher's day ever really ends! Hardest job there is, but so rewarding. You are inspiring!! 😃

[@alexlaurenroy]

Yay!!! These are my FAVOURITE videos!!! Ily Britt, hope you have a great day💛💛💛💛💛

[@willbeddick5891]

my favorite youtuber! you show the real world of teaching!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

I wish I could show every single part of it, but it’s important to know that only a small portion of my day is recorded!

[@gracekoennecke6647]

I’m SO happy you’re teaching Eleanor and Park in your class!! I love that book so much and I think it’s such an important and amazing read! I actually fangirled when I heard you say the title! I’m a HUGE rainbow Rowell fan lol!

[@ouhyeremy]

You've become an inspiration for me this year! It's my first year teaching and it's been full of ups and downs, but watching your videos has given me the push to love what I do more and more. Thank you 💕

[@fivefootoneteacher]

Means so so much. Keep going!

[@Maya-us2ce]

Hi I just wanted to tell you that I’m in middle school and just found your channel. I have been watching your videos non stop and love them.(and your flexible seating) You are so amazing,inspiring,and a wonderful person in and out. Like many kids I’ve always been asked what do you want to be ? And i never knew.. but after seeing you and watching how much you care for your students and want them to succeed I know that I want to be a teacher. Thank you for inspiring me - a very grateful girl from Houston Texas. 💛💛

[@ChaosCourtney01]

Your week in my life videos make me so excited to be a teacher in a few years!! You are so charismatic and inspiring and I hope to emulate the same positivity you have when I am a teacher! (even though I want to be a math teacher 😜)

[@jaedonrmuhl]

Love the trivia game! Such a cute idea!!!

[@rosieh7458]

Im here frm Natalie’s vid!🌻 Im now binge watching your previous vids lol i’m not a teacher but i aspire to be as positive as you. Thank you for being a breath of fresh air and for being a light ✨💛 you deserve all the happiness in the world 🌞

[@aimes2011]

When you were reading out loud you reminded me of the poet Rachel Wiley. I don’t know if you watch spoken word videos or not, but she is amazing and something about the way you enunciate and your facial expressions made me think of her. You’re awesome lady. Keep inspiring those kids (and us ❤️).

[@jodiemccord1840]

Loving all these teaching vids😍you have inspired me to teach English! Thank you so much! Could you do some videos about how you prepare for lessons?

[@YoynHjing]

I'm an English teacher as well but it seems like your teaching environment and culture are so much different compared to my country! Thanks for sharing! Had a great time watching your vlogs :D

[@natashaabbas7344]

Thanks for sharing! I would have loved to been in your classroom to see how the Team Trivia Game went! 😊❤️

[@neddynadia8082]

I'm planning to re-read Eleanor & park later!! i enjoy this video and I really like your vibe!! have a nice day Brit!

[@ilovemakeup115]

Love your videos. I was having one of those days where I just felt like i was going to cry at anything and everything but your videos always brighten up my day! Team trivia looked so much fun!

[@j0rdankenney]

You seem like a really nice person, and like the type of teacher I would feel comfortable talking too

[@lizzmae4560]

Two wonderful people! Happy Friday vibes! I’m feeling the teacher tired 😅

[@kayliedurrant9454]

i’m OBSESSED with pens but i love those papermate marker/pens. i just bought the same color you have. i’m addicted

[@heather_anne]

You should do a bedroom tour!! Or a house tour:) love your videos!♡

[@monicamontanez577]

I'm about to start teaching for this coming school year (19-20) can you please make a video of the types of shoes you wear when teaching? I like heels but I know sometimes after a long day they'll hurt your feet so I'm just curious to see the cute shoes you might wear to work.

[@mmmmsaraful]

monica montanez Flats/mules are best. I like to wear boots with a smaller heel. Nicer “sneakers” are good too, like a pair of Steve Madden quilted ones.

[@Jen_H17]

It's honestly so satisfying watching you make your breakfast!!

[@shelby2423]

Do you have details on the seminar? I’d love to do it but need more guidance to get started and you’re so right that our job never ends. Our students are in our lives and we think about them all the time.

[@jean-mariesimpson8989]

Just catching up... never realized until listening to the seminar how R&j related to E&p !, would love to know how to do the seminar that you taught!

[@reymarkvillanueva7875]

So inspiring. I'm happy to be a teacher too. 😊

[@rorososo96]

Omg two of my faves!! Love you gals! So relatable and real♥️

[@camillequinn167]

oh my gosh, i love the way you read! it’s so engaging. do you get to choose which books your class reads or do you have to follow a curriculum? if so, how’d you choose elanor and park?

[@thatkidnil8607]

OMG! I Ama fan of both you and Natalie! This is like a dream come true that you two are homies! 😍😭

[@maddieg8699]

You are such an inspiration to me and your students! I would love for you to be my teacher! I’ve always thought about being a teacher when I grow up and if I was a teacher and was like you I would love to be that light for my students! But I’m far from being like you 😂😂! Thank you for being a light

[@taylorg.6055]

Those paper mate pens are the best!!

[@taytaysharrard]

I just got into your channel and I'm from South Florida too!! I'm only a freshman in college considering becoming a highschool teacher. hahah its like I just got out of highschool and headed back but to teach!

[@IlanaMarrero]

I would love to see a video about your favorite class projects you have your students do! ❤️

[@YuLingZeng313]

I've been AP Testing all the past two weeks. With 8 tests, I basically haven't been in class since last week and all my teachers just choose to make class a study hall because there are so many people out. Can't wait to graduate HS June 6th! Also, what planner do you use?

[@grafflover100]

Do you have any videos on how you do your planner? I would love to see!

[@smiley00]

Hey! I'm a new teacher and I was wondering if I could have more information on the space race activity? How did you create the trivia game? What program did you use for the questions and space ships? How did all that work? Could you also please tell me more about the lines you were making on the board during the discussion?

[@AlexandraSophia]

Just came from Natalie's channel and subbed! love your vids

[@lucyclark4723]

you remind me of my science teacher so happy, so uplifting, so pretty

[@kairavictoria6898]

Love this!! Two of my favorite people!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

Awww thank you

[@kathrynbarfield6749]

I always look forward to and love your videos!

[@abbylhuff]

hey! I’m not sure if your markers are copics or knock off copics are not, either way they’re good artist quality. But when they dry up you can actually get ink refills for them! I’m not sure if off brand copics have refills but copics have ink refills that you can buy! and it’s way cheaper than getting a whole new marker 💛

[@NewDimension7]

Twins .. yuhuu 😁🙌👏👏

[@pearlsuarez1558]

I like that you set your students up for success

[@lexilovesyou5825]

It’s sweet you have a snack jar bc my blood sugar would sometimes drop in high school or middle school! Teachers normally didn’t have anything lol

[@lynette8042]

lexi loves you Yeah. That’s very nice of her, wish their was more teachers like her.

[@jazmine7642]

During one of my observations my principal told me students shouldn't be eating in class...

[@lynette8042]

Jaz mine dang, that sucks.

[@lexilovesyou5825]

Jaz mine yeah, that’s exactly what the rules were like in my school

[@lexilovesyou5825]

Lynette xoxo agreed :) she cares about her students so much you can see

[@ryanbakerr]

I wish my teacher was like this😔 Love you💓💓💓

[@Ivet2]

I’m a sophomore student and I also have 90 minute class and a seminar which I have tmr and I love having a seminar because I get my homework done on time

[@jordanherron4639]

love love love 🤩

[@Shay016-]

Can you do a video on your classroom management and what expectations you have of your students? I am an elementary teacher, but I always getting other opinions. Funny enough a lot of things that work in lower grades work in high school too. Like, stickers! Ever meet a popular all-American boy turn down a sticker for a job well done? I haven’t yet ;) high schoolers are just babies in big bodies. Love you channel!💛💛

[@pearlsuarez1558]

Shay G the sticker thing is so true 😂 they’ll wear it around all day i swear

[@fettuccinepasta]

Ilysm Britt ☺️ur so positive and just make my day! 😘 luv u the most

[@meaganlynn1852]

I remember in a past video you said you were looking for the so delicious yogurt in a large container (i bought it off of your recommendation) and i found it at target! Not sure if it’s just my target but maybe you could check! Love your videos!!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

Yes!!!! I have to go check

[@alexiswisler]

you should do a grocery haul or just a video about the food you buy/ like for school! You make me want to start eating more clean haha!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

Just uploaded one about what I eat in a day!!!

[@campbellmonica532]

try mild liner highlighters, their amazing !!

[@lesleygonzales1839]

Where are your shoes from ? The leopard ones ??

[@monicagutierrez3371]

Where did you get your karaoke mic and how did you hook it to a speaker?

[@ernie_renee]

hi britt! i was wondering where you got your "progress" shirt from? i love it!!

[@leilacain3059]

My school has T.A as an elective for juniors and seniors ☺️ P.S I love your videos and I’m thinking about becoming a teacher, maybe high school 😂🥰

[@iluvhorseys95]

The snack jar is a good idea! How do you keep kids from taking out of it too much though?

[@fivefootoneteacher]

They will let me know if they are hungry or forgot something and they will just respectfully take what they need!

[@VeggiesbyEos]

I love both you and Natalie so much! Also I miss your old intros!

[@marypekarek6533]

Your videos make my day!

[@maryandrews1193]

you are so beautiful and positive and amazing love you girly!!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

Thank you so so much!! Means the world

[@kennahill9117]

i’ve read eleanor and park at least 5 times

[@camillequinn167]

she has SNACK JAR for students? that’s so kind.

[@85soccerchick]

Teacher tip! Store your markers (even your flair pens) upside down! They will last SO much longer!

[@rebeccamorrison333]

Where did you get those markers at 4:48?

[@rebeccamorrison333]

And what brand are they?

[@fivefootoneteacher]

I linked them!!!

[@katiehassett6275]

where are the double sided markers you showed from? btw I love you and you are such an inspiration to everyone!! Keep doing you because you are so incredible

[@fivefootoneteacher]

amazon!!!

[@fivefootoneteacher]

[@madisonramos2885]

Hey girlll you should come to Texas🌵🌾💫

[@leeannschumacher7877]

Where did you get the progress shirt?!

[@alyssamaria7339]

What do you do for work in the summer time? I know because pay isn’t high a lot of teachers have to work the whole or part of the summer especially if they’re not getting paid in the summer months.

[@meredithmanchac7783]

Alyssa Maria most teachers get paid throughout the year. including the summer months.

[@alyssamaria7339]

Really? I’ve heard a few people say that teachers don’t get paid in the summer time. So I’m like well then how do they pay their bills that’s ridiculous!! I didn’t want to believe it.

[@meredithmanchac7783]

My mom is a teacher and I’m going to be a teacher in 2 years! From my experience she gets paid around $54,000/year and it’s split up to where she gets paid 2 times a month, every month. Idk how it works everywhere but regardless, teachers don’t get paid enough!!!

[@dany650]

Hello! I want to know how you write in that screen with your finger to create that interaction pattern :0

[@birdee18]

How do you set up your Team Trivia? I’d love to incorporate more of that in my class!

[@BrunaSilva-tt5qd]

the song in Portuguese at the end was so cute!!

[@audreycowdry1019]

Can you do a video on your English teacher must haves?!?

[@houghfamilyoffour2120]

Where did you get your teacher bag? 😩 I need it
