It's so refreshing to see a positive and engaged teacher who hasn't jumped on the "I quit my teaching job" bandwagon. I believe you're the only teacher out of all that I follow who hasn't quit, which is sad for multiple reasons. Anyway, great to see you back here on YT!!

[@MichelleGayScienceTeacher]

Great to see you and I love your positivity about work. Bravo for all you do for your students! Blessings and Love!

[@ElementaryInTheMitten]

Thank you, Michelle!

[@heathercharlton6528]

We just did caterpillars in my classroom too!! We released our butterflies this week! My 8th graders loved it!

[@ElementaryInTheMitten]

Ahh that is so fun! I can't wait for ours to be butterflies!

[@elishacalhoun6877]

Ugh I wish I could observe your teaching as a first year teacher I feel like I need so many more examples of teaching!

[@aliciaulrich5157]

We missed you too! So great to see your smiling face! I've been teaching at the middle school this year, 5th grade math. I'm hoping to stay in middle school but that has yet to be figured out. I do miss elementary at times so this was such a fun video to see whats going on in second grade! 😊

[@kendragrogan7306]

After a super tough year, ur video makes me wanna fall in love w teaching again❤

[@lupitaochoa9529]
