Well Michelle , I think that I speak on behalf of all of us who love you and me included that we hope that you have had a fantastic Thanksgiving and lots of turkey to top it off . We are thankful for you because for me personally Your Videos give me an escape from reality and something to turn to for a little happiness and sometimes memories of a time gone by and I really really need that . - Dwight

[@queenofdo-over]

I can tell you’re having a much better year this year. 😉 Change is refreshing .

[@sarashumaker3657]

queenofdoover well she is not at a title 1 school

[@rinawalter5402]

I couldn't get through a Sunday without you! YOU ROCK! God bless you and your family! Hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving.

[@PencilsandMagicWands]

Awesome!!! This is my favorite way to wake up on a Sunday morning. Watching one of my favorite teacher KZbinrs and starting my day with a smile on my face. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving holiday Michelle!

[@accountforwastingtime]

So I just wanted to say that I came upon your vlogs during a very tough time this year, when my mom was very sick. I basically had to wait every morning before work for news on rather or not she had a chance of making it through each day. I was in charge of caring for her puppy, so each morning before work I would make myself play with him and train him, and to distract myself while I waited for the daily call about how she was doing I would play your vlogs in the background. The vlogs I watched first were during last school year when you were struggling, contemplating quitting teaching, and battling negativity and a lot of backlash because of it. And all that time I just thought...how amazing is it that here's a genuine person, trying to help people and being totally honest about how she feels and how stressed out she is. In a weird way it just made me feel not alone, because we all have struggles we have to get through every day. It was nice seeing someone so open about that. Watching through your vlogs became one positive constant in my life I could look forward to during a very rough time. Quite honestly I think even my dog got used to your videos and liked when I played them, lol! Fast forward to now, and my mom's better and we're trying to help build her strength, energy, and get back to "normal". Recently I was both blessed and cursed with a big promotion to management at my job, that at times I dunno if I'm ready for. I don't teach, but somehow while dealing with job stress I still always think back to your vlogs, and the chaos you've dealt with while just trying to help these kids learn, grow, and ultimate have a safe place they can come to every day. Frankly your vlogs make me feel like I can accomplish anything. That my problems at work are nothing! So when I'm super stressed I go back to them, and at the least I'm reminded that it's okay to be stressed and honest of how you feel- and at the end of the day we, as humans, are built to be strong enough to find ways to overcome that stress. I just wanted to tell you thank you- your vlogs reach people in more ways than you know! It makes me happy to see you happy and doing well, in a place where it seems like you belong :)

[@bilingualclassroom8041]

You are such an inspiration! I'm a 4th-grade bilingual teacher.

[@clairepatterson4680]

BilingualClassroom I’m a 5th grade bilingual student

[@corriezoetewey7860]

Yay for 2 vlogs in a Row! I met my students at the movies when Tale if Despereaux came out. It was so much fun!

[@0cherriesd506]

Everyone felt ready for the break!

[@GlitterandJams]

We had the SAME schedule! I was SO looking forward to Tuesday at 3:45! We did ALL things turkey and Thanksgiving! Good times were had by all! I'm so glad you had a great week and got to start off on a high note after your awesome girls' weekend! Love and hugs, girl!!! We can make it until the next break!!!!!

[@itsferslife]

that google note from your student so awesome!

[@LifeLessonsWithSheila]

It is so good to see you having a GREAT time doing what you do!

[@Socute4u]

Great video, hope you had a restful break .

[@mistybethune9116]

I remember In either middle school or high school that we would carry our report card from class to class and our teachers put in our grade on the paper while class was going on. Usually gave us some kind of busy work so they could do them

[@amandagrosjean8755]

Great idea to have an out of school field trip! A wonderful message to share with students as well.

[@mikhalawagner1636]

At my school my entire class read the book then after we finished during the school day my entire class went and saw the movie 🎥

[@kambryannakirby4725]

I love your videos .I want to be a teacher when I get older and You inspire me and I watch all of your videosbeacause they are all amazing.

[@lazydancer13]

Love watching your videos every weekend! As a Grade 1-8 Art teacher, I would love to see what Art projects your class is working on!

[@KM-ye9so]

Could you (or have you already done) make a video about the things that substitute teachers can do/have done to make your life easier when you return to school? I'm not a teacher yet, but odds are I'll have to sub for quite awhile once I finish school, and you talking about the sub you had made me curious.

[@BuneesClassroom]

K M good idea!

[@ColleenColwell]

I have been to that Mexican restaurant before! I am going to the Crofton area for Easter and would LOVE to meet you.

[@keepyouonyourtoes1658]

People use to get at me for say i won't to be a teacher but you help me keep my eyes open . Thx M ❤

[@carogonzalez2031]

Hahaha I didn't know there was a restaurant called Querétaro.. I actually live in that city here in Mexico. You should visit one day.. it's awesome! And yeah I'm a mexican teacher teaching english in a bilingual school ^^..love your videos Michelle.

[@soccerfan1014]

I am not sure how I found your channel but I really liked it and your passion for teaching. Even though I don't plan on teaching I still find your channel fun to watch. It gets me reminiscing on my friend and I playing school all the time. Although when I was younger I did want to be a teacher but being in college now I am still not sure what I want to do. Thank you for all your hard work!

[@rileygoguen5544]

The Tuesday before thanksgiving our whole grade (6th grade) we watched wonder at the movie theater. For summer homework we had to read the book and plan a essay!!

[@chloepatalano8610]

I love the turkey activity it is so good for budget planning. I watch your videos for inspiration. I am a junior in college and an Early Childhood major

[@keelielewisvlogs1028]

My school went to see Wonder to and it was amazing!!! I loved it but it sure was sad!!!😍😍😍😢😢😢

[@kitty55911]

Hey Michelle, So I'm not a teacher, I'm not even studying to be a teacher, yet I am currently obsessed with watching your vlogs!! I don't know what it is, but I can sit here, and have sat here, for hours just watching! If I was going to be a teacher, you'd be the goals I'd want to follow. I live in Australia so I don't even understand half of your education system, but yeah, I don't know, I just wanted to let you know that you are amazing and you must be an amazing teacher withh al the effort and work you put in for your kiddos xx

[@PencilsandMagicWands]

Adding to my previous comment...we also had a two day school week for Thanksgiving and I agree, most activities are fun activities. I absolutely love the Thanksgiving dinner Math activity! I also LOVE Really Good Stuff! That should’ve been my “R” for my Thankful Teacher A-Z video, but that’s ok. Please consider doing a future video where you go over how you pull small groups for math. Would love to see how you do that. Also, your cheese dip looks delish! So awesome how you did an outside “field trip” with your students and their parents. I agree...the movie was wonderful but I prefer the book too. Our fourth graders will see it on Dec. 14 as a school field trip. Thank you so much for always being you.

[@alyssaunger73]

Even though this was a short video, I loved it! It seemed like a fun two days!! Hope you had a great break Michelle!!

[@patienceharris9771]

I loved the idea with the wigwams! I may have to work that out next year with my preschool class. I think they might be able to pull it off. I get so many great ideas from your videos! I implement many things in my own classroom. Even though my children are much younger. I can always make it work. I also loved that you suggested using those Stikki Clips. I will hang stuff up on Friday and come in on Monday with it ALL ON THE FLOOR. Just humidity or moisture in the brick walls. Not to mention, the building is as old as Methuselah. And I am OCD. When hanging them up, I arrange all their papers in a particular order. I have a certain number on this side, a certain number going this way and a certain number on top. Everything must be symmetrical. It's a disease. I really think it is killing me slowly and making me old before my time. Haha I hope you had a great Thanksgiving filled with yummy things to eat!

[@donut645]

you’re so lucky! here in canada thanksgiving was about a month ago and i only got a day off of school! love your vlogs, really hope you do vlogmas!!

[@erlyne0]

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving break!

[@lauralynn1198]

My school has a Duncan donuts across the street ya ya!

[@BuneesClassroom]

Laura Parrott us too! 😫😂

[@adeleetherton2665]

Wonder was a great movie...a good lesson to be learned too. My real joy came when my 11 year old grandson Luke said " I loved the movie nana, but the book was better!" I am surprised he even read the book. I feel so blessed. Maybe he is growing up LOL

[@mallorystack4023]

I saw wonder for a Field trip and one with my family it is amazing

[@tashahuey6075]

I want to start a KZbin channel so bad but i have never felt that I would have enough to say or do. Do you think you could do a video about starting a KZbin channel, how you started, and your tips and tricks? I love love love your videos and look forward to a new one coming. You are so down to earth and real it creates such a wonderful atmosphere to watch and I thank you for that! 💜💜💜 Much love

[@terridavenport5243]

Hope that you had a terrific Thanksgiving Michelle!

[@allybalogh2807]

I saw the movie, and I am seeing it again today! ilysm Michelle

[@anylaspears7890]

Hey Michelle, I did the same project/assignment in 5th grade.

[@ilovecupcackes1017]

[@chloegayer9394]

You are so lucky we only get Thursday and Friday off!!

[@BuneesClassroom]

Chloe Koala what!! We had Tues-Friday off.

[@Lilly-dc4hi]

I love your vlogs so much! I might be a teacher when I am older! I love all of the activities you have your kids do!

[@michaelawebb3295]

I don't know if this applies to Maryland, but in California if you are a teacher or a school administrator and you buy things for your class room such as paper, pencils, etc you can get a tax deduction on whatever you bought. If you haven't done this, and applies to your state, please try this!! I hope this helps.

[@PocketfulofPrimary]

Michaela Webb Yes, I always write off what I can. However, there is a limit of $250 for an educator write off and I usually spend way more than that in a school year.

[@BuneesClassroom]

Michaela Webb we had that but they took it away. But we do get a pre paid debit card to help with supplies!

[@chelsyealyssa]

I am thankful for you Michelle!! :) . If you liked Wonder, check out Auggie and Me. Its Wonder from the perspective of Julian, Auggie's friend Chris, and Charlotte. I just finished it, and it was great! Might be great for your students to read.

[@user-cf1yy9np4u]

I love these kinds of vids

[@BlackRoze29]

I wish I could leave my house at 7:05 and have that be "early." That's when first period starts for us.

[@scrapwithmattbackupaccount9730]

Have a good rest of your thanksgiving 😀

[@melaniehester9982]

Don't know if you are a PierI shopper, but they have the cutest sloth Christmas ornament and Christmas figure. Made me think of you. I am a secondary teacher and I love your vlog , I look forward to it every week. Thank you for sharing

I wish i would've known about those clips when i was teaching!

[@kaitlynyoung7019]

I live in Texas and we get the whole week of thanksgiving off, and I can't believe that they don't give you guys the whole week off too.

[@BuneesClassroom]

Kate Young we had the whole week off, but had to go Monday for a hurricane make up day 🙁

[@kaitlynyoung7019]

that sucks, but how many days will you guys have to make up from the hurricane?

[@BuneesClassroom]

Kate Young we missed 6 days, but only have to make up 2!

[@kaitlynyoung7019]

That's amazing! Hope you finish off your day great before Monday!

[@selin1189]

YAY! AWESOME WAY TO START THE DAY!

[@Misscoolfinds]

Hope you had a amazing thanksgiving! Can not wait for December.

[@dmrant]

Do you have to use your own money for the baskets and hooks?

[@JustBethTrying]

When you tell yourself that you can sleep in, do you actually sleep late? I find that I never actually do.

[@BuneesClassroom]

Beth Courtney no! Lol

[@CDSchweiger]

I feel like you need to let go of control sometimes. Have your kids fill out the envelopes for report cards. I love it when I can designate and delegate tasks to the kids. Life is so much easier that way. Also- I don't mean to criticize. Kids are capable of way more than we give them credit for. I used to hate having students fold programs for concerts. The trick is picking those kids that can handle it and putting their skills to good use.

[@quinnrenee5849]

As a teacher, how often do you eat out?

[@duniaazimi1464]

I am finally early and love your Channel
