I'M BACK - WEEK IN MY [teacher] LIFE | Ep. 4

[@yobebooo]

I don’t think anyone needs to feel guilty when they disappear for awhile, especially first year teachers!! I am glad you have hit your stride and are back. When you said you’ve been having the best two months of your life, it warmed my heart. 🤗

[@djthereplay]

+Putting Them First Hello Ms. Lauren !! First , Welcome back . School is challenging for everyone regardless if you are teacher or student so sometimes things get overwhelming but at the very least you are acknowledging your online community here . I wish more of My Summer Camp friends would do that . It would make my time on FB more worth my time . Second , I am an autistic former SPED school student born , raised , and living in Shelbyville , Tennessee and I am a Florida Gator Fan so I am happy to see that you are a Gator . Stay positive and enjoyable with your students and they will look up to you as their bright spot where I come from a time where I was more afraid of school and specifically when it comes to elementary school in My Town . Keep education fun ! , - Dwight

[@amyholt6693]

So glad for the update! Always prioritize you when you can because you will give so much to this job. It is easy to become consumed by the job. Your honesty and positivity makes my heart happy and makes me strive to be better after 15 years of teaching. Prayers for continued success!

[@wendymadden8535]

As a teacher, I totally understand your struggle to find the work and personal life balance. This is my 18th year of teaching and I still struggle with not allowing teaching to take over my life at the beginning/ end of year and report card time. As a teacher, our job is never done. There is always more we can do. It is up to us to set limits. I'm happy to see you back! 😀

[@marymuller2646]

Glad all is well! I've been teaching 28 years and still have a struggle finding a healthy balance. You and your grade partner deserve a standing ovation! Two first year teachers in first grade??!!! That is not easy!! You are so articulate and smart! Your videos are great! Always put you and your family first and students a close second! :)

[@lamc2008]

Girl you HAVE NO IDEA how much I need to hear this! I am also a first year teacher who has been following your videos! I am glad we are on the same page! I absolutely love my class, but I am also draining myself as well...it’s so refreshing to hear this from someone else that is at level with you. I too feel like I am just NOW finally getting it! BTW I am also from Florida too!

[@tonyawyatt9291]

I feel like you've grown up so much since you've been gone:) So happy for you for finding balance. This is my 21st year and balance it's still a struggle at times, but you can't pour from an empty cup! Hope everything continues to be amazing!!

[@puttingthemfirst]

Tonya Wyatt I felt that way watching this video back too! Like wow when I did I become a real-life teacher. Thank you so much for encouraging me and pouring into my cup 😊

[@tonyawyatt9291]

Putting Them First You are definitely, a real life teacher! 😊 I’ve seen our profession change so much over the last 20 years. We need more people just like you. Thanks for making it look so attractive. Your joy and enthusiasm are inspiring. It’s not an easy career, but it is incredibly rewarding! Hope you enjoy your weekend.

[@araceli816354]

I was just thinking about how much I enjoyed your videos this summer before I began student teaching!! I'm now more than halfway done and so happy you're back to offer more teaching advice!!

[@puttingthemfirst]

Georgina Martinez And now you’ve started student teaching!!! How’s it going?! ❤️

[@araceli816354]

Putting Them First it’s going great! It’s a lot more exhausting then I had thought but I’ve loved all my kids and everyone has been so welcoming!

[@sommermullins7821]

So glad that you are back. I would check often to see if you had posted & worries that something was wrong. The first year is so hard, glad you have your stride. Looking forward to future posts. Remember you’re only one person. 😊❤️

[@dannicaxoxo3]

I am also a first year first grade teacher and WOW we have had a very similar experience. I completely burned myself out and it has taken me until now to really find somewhat of a balance. Hope you are enjoying your kiddos as much as I’m enjoying mine now that it’s becoming routine💛

[@TheLeAnder97]

Welcome back! You’ve been missed.

[@puttingthemfirst]

TheLeAnder97 Thank you ❤️ I missed you guys too!

[@isapardo69]

Happy to see you back... October is a tough month with so many activities happening so don’t OVERPLAN 😃💪🏻

[@PrimarilyYours]

So, so proud of you - as always! Thank you for sharing so transparently about what your first year has been like so far. I am right there with you - running myself into the ground burning the candle at both ends... but coming to realize that's a pace we can't & shouldn't sustain. You have nothing to apologize for - taking care of yourself and your students should always be your top priority. I am proud of you for recognizing that! So glad that you are back in this space so that we can "hang out" again. ;) Love you forever.

[@puttingthemfirst]

I’m so happy we don’t have to go this alone- and that I can hangout with my PERSON from miles and miles away via vlogs!!!! We got this. Love you more ❤️

[@marellcharley1095]

YAY!! So glad you are back, I have been looking out for your videos wanting to hear your adventure so far. I too am a 1st grade teacher plus first time teacher as well. Watching this video I was pretty much saying to myself, "yup, saaame!" Just like you I was doing to much in the beginning and forgetting to take time for myself but know I am have a better balance. I am glad you are back and I look forward to see more videos.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

I’m glad things are working out. It is so hard to find balance between work and home.

[@malissac7966]

Teaching is a tough job! You will probably never feel caught up. It’s good you found a balance. I’ve in my 22nd year of teaching and I still have to remind myself to put my work down and take are of myself and my family. I’m glad you are sharing your teaching adventure😃❤️

[@kittyquick9325]

Would love a sit down video of what expectations of the first two months. What worked, what didn’t, what you wish you would have known, what you think you’ll do different next start of year. Glad to see you back! I literally gasped when I saw your video! My husband was like, “What!” 😂 “My favorite KZbinr just posted and it’s been a long time!” I was afraid you had quit cause the students had eaten you up!! 😂😬 So glad you are well and thriving. Can’t wait to see more from you. Thanks for your honesty.

[@puttingthemfirst]

Kitty Quick I LOVE that video idea- and it would be helpful to film soon while everything is fresh so I can watch it while I prep next year. Thank you!! So happy to be back with y’all and giggling at your husband story ❤️

[@carmiebaby614]

Welcome back! I am so glad that you found your sweet spot, it takes some teachers (many) years to find that, so congrats for being so in tune with your self and your students! I love watching your videos, because I am a 6th year 5th grade teacher, and I love the joy and honesty you bring to the teacher KZbin community. Teaching is HARD, but also SO joyous!! Keep it up girl!

[@lisadelacure8213]

So glad to see a new video!! YAY to you for finding a happy middle instead of beating yourself up with non-stop work. The balance is hard to find, but glad you are there now. Miss you sweet girl!!

[@JMitch-rr5kh]

Oh man I can so relate to spending every waking minute of my life doing work for school! I am a first-year teacher as well and the mental exhaustion is real. I feel like I am finally in a groove for the most part, but still learning every day. With no reading or writing curriculum, it can be tricky. Thankfully my teammate has been teaching for closer to ten years and my principal is super supportive.

[@Texasdoglover738]

I’m so happy you’re back filming and I’m glad you are okay and succeeding in your classroom! You will make it through this tough first year, you’ve got this 💞

[@puttingthemfirst]

Celeste Rangel Thank you so much- I certainly needed this community and I’m so happy to have y’all here so we can cheer each other on 💗

[@ashlandclark6200]

We’ve missed you!! I have learned in my first 3 years of teaching that it’s best to stay after school & complete your work and then you are free at home lol! I used to take all my work home with me & now I never bring anything home lol. I’d rather stay over after school and prep and get prepared for the next day lol. Sooooo glad your back! ❤️

[@heatherdunn9685]

As a first year teacher, I totally understand! I was burning myself out too the first month or so into school. I enjoy watching your videos. It’s refreshing to have someone who understands what I am going through. Keep up the great work!

[@dannymcglone5926]

You were missed. Glad you're back!

[@puttingthemfirst]

danny mcglone Thank you!

[@abigailbrager5044]

Lmao! Same girl same. It’s my first year teaching too and I had the same rollercoaster. You’re so not alone. I still feel like I stay for a long time after school, but that’s to avoid bringing work home. Finding that balance is hard. Sometimes I feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day. I love your vlogs. And don’t do too much. This year is hard.... seriously. Lol.

[@puttingthemfirst]

Abigail Brager Glad I’m not on this rollercoaster solo then- we can’t get off now 😂 I need 4 more hours each day and I think I’d be great! Thanks for sharing the madness with me 💗

[@jcarlasolis4258]

So happy you are back 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@julietcomer353]

I'm also a first year teacher and totally relate to everything you explained about your first 8 weeks!! I am also just now picking things back up after taking some much needed time to rest. Glad you are making videos again! 💕

[@puttingthemfirst]

Juliet Comer WOW- so glad I’m not alone then. It’s been a roller coaster of adjustment. I’m so happy we can reconnect now! 💗

[@SpeakNoww17]

That anchor chart is adorable. Welcome back, your positive personality was definitely missed! Have a great weekend!!

[@denysesmith6975]

So sweet to see your happy face here again! Glad you were wise enough to take care of you! Just remember: you won’t have to repeat this first year and everything you are taking the time to prep will make next year so much easier! Make sure you are saving examples and taking pictures! File it all away and you will thank yourself next year! My heart broke when you said your team was a first year too and you had no lead teacher! I’m so sorry! I’ve been the lead teacher for my k team for about 6 years and I spend soooo much time helping/mentoring my new teachers that have come in to our team! Bless your hearts! You can do it! Then, a word of advice from this 26 year veteran: I take one day a week to plan for the next week. I get all my lesson plans done for each day. I try to do this on Monday or Tuesday. Then the rest of the week I make my copies and gather all my materials for those lessons. I have everything for the next week ready to go and organized on Friday. This way I can come in on Monday and every day that week and be ready. And yes, there are things we as a team add at the last minute and I just roll with it. I started doing this about 12 years ago. It has made my life so much easier! It is a process to get into a pre planning routine, but so worth it. Just food for thought. You are doing a great job! And remember: your classroom will still continue even you don’t have everything exact! Take time for you and your family and give yourself boundaries! Your students are blessed to have someone as committed as you as their teacher!

[@jamesvolpe7474]

Wow, you are amazing! I retired after 41 glorious years of teaching. I was a lot like you for many, many years. I devoted my life to teaching. It was such a rewarding experience. For a first year teacher you are doing a fantastic job from what I can tell. Always remember it’s all about the kiddos you teach. Ignore all the politics that go along with the job. Thanks for posting, I enjoy watching you and your outstanding classroom. Enjoy, it goes by fast. 😀

[@anysevermette]

Welcome back!! Thank you for your candid words, I think it’s so important that people understand the ebb and flow of finding your stride. I’m glad you’re doing well and that things are going great with your class!

[@meredithwaller1071]

Welcome back! I've thought about you and your class a lot since your last video but I'm so glad you chose to prioritize your mental health first, that's so important! I am currently in my last year of school getting my masters, so I will be in your shoes this time next year...which is so crazy. I've loved seeing all of the ups and downs of the start of your first year, it makes me feel less nervous for what is to come!

[@terrificintk]

I was so happy to see that you had posted a vlog! I have been worried about you and praying for you. I know how teaching can take over your whole life! Finding a balance can be difficult at times. Remember to give yourself grace. ☺️ You do not owe any of us anything so please do not feel pressured- just glad to see you are smiling and doing well!! 🌻

[@puttingthemfirst]

Karen Howard Wow- never did I imagine the incredible people I’d interact with on this platform. ❤️ To know that this whole time I’ve felt alone or not enough I’ve actually been prayed over and thought about is so comforting. Thank you for the reminder to take the pressure off and just find the joy in what I’m doing!

[@ashtonjenkins9272]

First year teacher here too, and I totally feel all of the emotions you described in your update. I love your positivity and how open you are about your experience!

[@brendapark7631]

I’m so glad you’re back. I was wondering how your year was going. Everything you’re experiencing right now is typical for your first year. Don’t let the stress get to you. Keep your stride through to Christmas break. You’ve got this!

[@jennyaustin5927]

I have missed seeing you and your bubbly smile...... I am soooo glad you blogged. But, I do understand you need to take care of you and find your niche - specially being a first year teacher....... So happy you are back...... 👏👏❤️☺️

[@puttingthemfirst]

jenny austin Thank you so much Jenny! I’m so excited to reconnect with y’all now. 😊💗

[@janemcdonough3274]

It's great that you recognised when to stop! It only leads to poor health and resentment of the job. Take it all at your pace, especially in your first year - everything takes much longer. You'll feel so much better about things when you've completed a first full year. It all starts to come together and remember, you cant be everything to everybody. Lovely to see you back. xx

[@puttingthemfirst]

Jane mcdonough As soon as I noticed the joy fading I knew it was time for a change. Reminding myself that it takes 10 years to become an expert at anything- and I’m allowed to be a beginner and make mistakes along the way 😊 Thank you!!

[@RachaelLyn]

Definitely missed you, but I totally know how the beginning of the year is, so I completely understand!

[@RachaelLyn]

As for over working, I have a tendency to do this too. Last year I decided to give myself until October 1st to work as much as I feel I need to work...I work at home, I work after school until 8 or 9 pm sometimes, and then work at school on the weekends, and I bring home anything I think I need to bring home....pretty much every waking hour like you mentioned. After that, once October hits, I limit my time and I make sure to leave by 5 so I can go home and eat a decent dinner. Once I'm home, no work. I don't bring anything home with me. The only exceptions were if I needed to print something from my home computer that I didn't have at school. It seems to work well, getting the school year off right and I try to get as far ahead in planning and preparing as possible before October hits so that I'm working ahead all year...it doesn't always work, but that's the goal. I'm glad you've finally found your stride and a balance!

[@PuttingFourthEffort]

oh girl...this is me at the beginning of every year. you are awesome!

[@nataliekartz5097]

So happy to hear you have found your groove! Loved watching your entire prep for the year! Absolutely love your content and passion for education. Your enthusiasm is infectious!! This will be my ninth year teaching third grade and even I have struggled at times with finding that right balance. Sending you lots of luck and success this school year and for many years to come! 😍❤️🍎

[@stephanie3xo]

So happy to see you post! I am A Second year first grade teacher and it does get easier. Last year was tough for me as well. I stayed long hours but this year One of my goals is to not stay at work so late and enjoy some of my weekend for myself. I'm also a fellow MA teacher and you inspire me everyday! Love your energy

[@puttingthemfirst]

steph fa SO glad to not feel alone in everything. Thank you for the encouragement- enjoy those weekends girly!! 💗

[@susanbrandt6642]

Glad to see u back! I tend to work too much like you...you just feel so responsible for those little people entrusted to you😊! Glad you have found your balance!

[@puttingthemfirst]

Susan Brandt Right!! Someone is leaving their child with me- all day- EVERY DAY- 17 OF THEM?!? I must be superwoman for them. That’s how I feel 😂

Omg I have been waiting ages for you to post! Checked your channel a few times because I thought I was missing the updates!! Happy to see you back! 😊

[@kerrihayes8267]

Welcome back Lauren, my first year was tough too. I was working 11 hour days (7am - 6pm). As you said your mental health takes priority. I can honestly say the workload does get easier. I am in my 3rd year of teaching now. Your classroom looks great! A message from London, England

[@puttingthemfirst]

Kerri Hayes I’m so happy to hear that!! Slow and steady I’m finding balance and joy in each day. Thank you for encouraging me ❤️

[@charlottep5480]

Also in my first year of teaching, and I’ve just made it to half term (UK). I have been like you, I’ve loved it and I love my kids but it has been so hard and so tough to find a balance on how much work I should be doing. When I did too much I started to resent it but then when I wasn’t doing anything I was feeling guilty and I hated not feeling prepared! I think I’m finally in my stride now too and hoping that the next half term I will feel more in control! Well done for your first 2 months, love your videos! Xx

[@puttingthemfirst]

Charlotte P Congratulations on making it to half term! I actually started school (reception & year 1) in the UK and sometimes wonder how different it would be to teach across the pond instead. Those feelings of resentment or guilt are SPOT ON- and I could hardly decide which was worse. You got this!! Rest and recharge for next term 💗

[@crystalhoupe7285]

Missed your videos, but glad you're doing better. 😊

[@Itsmisssamara]

Yay!! Your back

[@puttingthemfirst]

Wow this is so relatable! We all feel you!!! I’m so happy you hear you have found your stride 💓💓💓

[@puttingthemfirst]

Glad I’m not alone! ❤️

[@sarahp444]

Have you thought of batching your tasks? For example, I prep the next week's lessons on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays (one subject prepped per day). I grade on Thursdays and Fridays. I teach 6th, so it depends on the grades, departmentalized/self-contained, and many other factors. However, I'm so glad to see that you're finding your stride. Also, the Truth for Teachers podcast by Angela Watson is amazing! I highly recommend.

[@puttingthemfirst]

Sarah Preston Currently at the airport for a long day of travel so I will DEFINITELY be listening to that podcast today. Thank you for idea! And I LOVE that strategy. I think I’ll use a variation of this time blocking to prioritize my morning/prep/after school time. Maybe I’ll figure that out on the second plane 😂

[@queenhaleyy8998]

I love your videos !! ♥️

[@ms.coleinfirst2467]

Yay! So excited that you’re back!

[@dhenry2010]

I’m on my second year of teaching and really just found my stride. I tried to do so much my first year on top of dealing with a lot of personal stuff and I was so burnt out at the end of the year. I started out this year in much the same fashion and quickly readjusted to meet not only my students’ needs, but mine as well. I’m also co-lead of my grade level this year, my grade level’s PBIS representative, and I teach in an after school program while also creating/analyzing various data recording forms for my school, so it was very imperative that I found my middle. Lol

[@biancazamudio5507]

You are my favorite human I am so happy your back

[@puttingthemfirst]

Bianca Zamudio um OK best compliment ever! I thought I was only my mom’s favorite human!!! Thank you for the warm welcome back 💗

[@The313literarylounge]

Glad you’re back! Would love to see your weekly objectives.

[@ericasergio4511]

Aghh this made me so happy! You’ve been missed greatly 🤗 nothing wrong with taking time for priorities but I am glad you’re back! Watching you this summer was so inspirational as I will have my own class next year! 😊 I did notice that you said you had a lot of things you thought you needed and didn’t and were missing things you did need! I’d love a video of that in more detail! ☺️

[@puttingthemfirst]

Erica Sergio Thank you!! Congratulations on stepping into your own classroom so soon- I’m so happy to be back in this community so all us teachers can collaborate here. YES- I will definitely be filming that soon while everything is fresh in my mind 😊

[@beccatafoya106]

Would you be able to show some of the centers you are doing for them? I am really happy to see your videos again.

[@Thealaskanteacher]

It is so hard! Girl just do what you gotta do. Go through all the phases - indulge, reflect, vent, cry tears of joy and frustration...... Does your district have a mentoring program? I am a first grade teacher in my second year and if there’s anything I can do to help let me know. We are all in this together!

[@puttingthemfirst]

The Alaskan Teacher I have a first year teaching coach but not a veteran “mentor” per say. I’m relying on my mentor teacher from student teaching quite a bit- very blessed to have her. Thank you for the reminder to give myself grace to grow. I’m feeling much less alone reading through these comments! 💗

[@andrianac5568]

im almost done with my first student teaching experience in 1st grade and i have loved every second of it!

[@cupcakie191]

Do you have a video explaining your compliment behavior management strategy??

[@dreamtraveldisney]

So happy to see you back! 😃 This last semester before student teaching has been and still is stressful. I’m trying to focus on doing what I need to do and not stressing over doing the extra stuff.

[@puttingthemfirst]

Classroom Of Creation That’s what’s most important. I hope things start to look up for you- I found student teaching tricky as I wanted to prioritize the classroom over my own schoolwork. You got this girly! 💗
