So what other videos are you interested in seeing besides vlogs? 🥰 I used to do favorites videos and stopped because I don't want to be the person constantly influencing you to buy. Classroom tour is coming, what I eat in a week is coming, but share ideas! You never know 🥰

[@sarahp444]

Can you talk about how this year is better than last year (obviously sharing as much or as little as you want, for confidentiality)? Or maybe a video on comparing your growth from first year to your current year of teaching!

[@jenniferchapa3415]

Can you share how you incorporate rime magic?

[@TheMooresDaily]

I would love to see your planning routine! Mostly how you follow your curriculum/scope and sequence and fit it into themes or seasonal activities. Thanks!!

[@maritzag694]

Breakdown of secret stories and how to best use any of these writing/reading tips?

[@versetripn6631]

After a few viewed vids...Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, Conflict Resolution, Troubleshooting...any NON manipulative way to instill these necessary skillsets, will greatly benefit your group in the "trying" times to come. You are quite a pleasant example of professionalism! You familiar with Abstract Inversion?

[@mylenelagace8424]

🧚🏻 Love hanging out with you Sunday mornings. I’d love to see a video with must have TPT ressources for centers!

Happy to hang out with you, friend!

[@edgarduarte2674]

The way you read the book, paused, and had them repeat what you had just said is helpful. I will be doing that with my 1st grade niece when I read a book to her for her reading log. She doesn't always have books at her reading level to read.

[@piscesplanner]

Another great video. I always enjoy them, even though I teach 8th grade, I still love to see what elementary teachers are up to and I've gotten some great ideas. 🧚‍♀️

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Really? That's so encouraging thank you!!

Love hearing about your little sweeties! I have a great class this year as well. I call them the “Von Trapps” because they spontaneously break out in song at different times in our day. So fun!! TFS ☺️

I have been binge watching your vlogs and have learned so many new things that I am going to implement ( I’m about to spend a bit of money 🤣🤣🤣🤣). This vlog is my favorite so far. Thank you for sharing your experience and process. You’ve got a new subbie 💜.

October is always the month for me when I just GUSH over my students. In October they’re finally comfortable, know the routines, they understand my teaching style and I understand their learning styles, and school and lessons honestly just feels like hanging out and having fun with family while they’re learning. ….That’s October though the rest of the year ends up being stressful 😂😂😂

[@MrsCallsCampers]

HAHAHAHAHA! Truth!

[@shekinahterry813]

I will be teaching kinder this year. We are using Amplify and it doesn't seem super engaging. I am going to adapt the comparing stories craft you did to go with our amplify stories. The first unit is nursery rhymes and our first two nursery rhymes are Roses are Red and Ring around the Rosy. We will compare the stories in the middle section (they both have flowers) and do vocabulary for both stories on the sides since vocabulary is one of the big focuses according to the amplify objectives. I've heard a lot of negative things about Amplify from people who have used it before so I've been searching for ways to make it my own and actually teach literacy skills using the program. I've been getting pretty excited about it and your craft put it over the top for me. I would need to make mine super simple since we will only have our literacy block to do everything but I'm super excited to try.

[@tamicay925]

Your vlogs are my favorite! I look forward to them every weekend! I am also a teacher and you inspire me! It would be cool to see your favorite Tpt purchases of late. Also, would like to see outfits of the week!

Yes! Morning routine video in the classroom would be great!!

I just sent out a message asking parents to bring in a white shirt, and then sent out a different one listing items we needed on Class Dojo! Super simple!!! My parents this year really love to help! They bring things without me even asking!

[@maritzag694]

I love your vlogs and this one is exceptionally awesome! Thank you for all the details with reading lessons, the secret stories and mantras - trying to ingest all of it! My kindergartener has to do remote school for now, and as her independent learning “coach” for the school district program we are in, I’m essentially her part-time teacher (Um yay for two jobs? 😂) I have found you so sweet and helpful and I’m learning some awesome strategies to help her learn. Thank you for being such a dedicated teacher, both in your classroom and for all of us out here in KZbinLand. 💕

You have such great ideas and you are so organized! I ordered Secret Stories for my class also. It just arrived today and I am so excited to start using it on Monday! I do have a question though, do you really only read one book to your kids the whole week? Or is that the shared reading book and maybe you don't write the read alouds down on your plans?

[@MrsCallsCampers]

Yay! When did you order it? Just curious how long it took to get there haha! And our weekly read aloud is just one - we read others eith curriculum and then for fun. :) vlog 8 I think talks more about what we do daily

[@ELAinTaipei]

@@MrsCallsCampers Okay, good! I am glad you read lots of stories to them. 😊 I reached out to Secret Stories in September, after I saw your video about them and had checked out their website. I had never heard of this company before and I absolutely love the concept, and can see why this would be very effective. But I was sad that their site said they don't ship internationally. However, after I reached out, they were so amazing and arranged to ship the materials to my school. Everything was all finalized and the invoice paid by the end of September and then they shipped it out. So it took about one month. Not bad, considering all the COVID restrictions slowing things down. 😊 👏🏻
