After seeing how much teachers really go through getting ready for the school year we really need to appreciate what our teachers do for us because it’s hard work
It is hard work, but we are willing to do it for our students! :)
I wish this is how my teachers were. I personally hate teachers. No offense you seem like a sweet and really good teacher. I feel like in school students are not appreciated for what we do yet teachers are. Just doesn’t seem fair. That’s just my opinion. (I subscribed to your channel)
@@AMK16 I'm sorry you feel that way based on your past experiences, Alaina! I try hard to let me students know how much I appreciate their efforts when I notice they are working hard, working kindly together, etc. I think the appreciation could definitely go both ways - for both teachers and students! Thanks for subscribing :)
@primarily yours, you seem like an awesome teacher who loves all her students and strives to make them feel welcome in your classroom. It’s good to know that not all teachers are like mine!
Sky high Skyla yup
Since you're not keeping all of the seasonal books out all the time, you could just have one bin labeled "seasonal books" rather than labeling 10 bins with the different months. Just swap out the books in the one seasonal bin.
Great idea! :)
I’m that crazy organizer and would need all the monthly seasonal bins ( also my bin would be too big because I have so many books😂)
How sweet to do something nice for custodians 👍🏼
They've worked so hard, and they're such sweet people! It's the least I can do :)
Wow I never realized how much work teachers did before the school year started
Yes, it's crazy! But I would do it all a thousand times over for my sweet kids!
Primarily Yours awww, your such a great teacher!!
Cambria Kabler neither
We definitely need more teachers like you putting effort in schooling .youre such a light and I bet you are an amazing teacher
Thanks so much, Shaylee! That means a lot to me. :)
I'm a preschool teacher and I can definitely use some of your tips! I love how you organized your books!
I'm so glad to hear it - thanks for telling me! :) That organization system has been really helpful to me so far!
You totally made me want to be a teacher now! I mean, you get to decorate a classroom. Make bonds with the kiddos. Sounds like a LOT of fun! Hope you have a great year!
It is! These videos (so far) only show setting up & decorating my classroom, but there's so much more to teaching than that. I feel so thankful to have relationships with my kiddos - that is truly the most important thing to me :)
Thanks so much for watching, Lily!
@@PrimarilyYours i wanted to be a Vet but now im stuck on if i want to be a Vet or a Teacher😂😂😂
@@Eden-ie7ng same. I really wanted to be a vet or a lawyer, but now I kind of have my heart set on being a teacher
I’m new here- love your videos! I’m not a teacher or anything but I am OBSESSED with organization and decluttering types of videos so this is right up my alley! Much love from Indiana, Sarah ♥️
love it, best comment ever!
Aw, thanks so much! I really appreciate that. I'm pretty obsessed with organization too if ya can't tell ;) So glad you found my video!
Scotchgaurding the pillows was so smart
Thanks! It's definitely helped them stay nicer longer than they would've without spraying first! :)
Love how your classroom is turning out! I am also a kindergarten first year teacher so I am so glad I found your videos!
Thanks so much! I'm really glad you're here :) Yay for fellow first-year kinder friends!!
I didn't think about typing up a book inventory! TOTALLY doing this! Starting student teaching in the fall and have already accumulated so many!
Yes!! It's been so helpful for me :) Congrats on beginning student teaching!
Your book inventory doc is GENIUS. ❤️
Yesss I was waiting for #2!! Post notifications on 🤗
Ah yay! You are so sweet!!
I love seeing classroom setups! Can't wait to see more videos from you xx
I'm glad you are loving it! Thanks so much :)
You never know how much stuff us teacher have, until it's classroom setup day, or classroom cleanup day!! lolol love all of your great teacher stuff! ♥️
You're so right!! haha :) Thank you!
As someone who is about to student teach in the spring, seeing you prepare your classroom makes me so excited to graduate and start in my own classroom! I had to get that Classroom Management book for a class I’ve taken and I know I will definitely be using it in my future classroom! I also had to get a book called “Seven Simple Secrets” that I think will also be very beneficial as well and I highly recommend it. I hope your school year is going great so far!
I am so glad to hear that! I've never heard of Seven Simple Secrets before - I'll have to look into it. Thanks for sharing! Thanks, I am having a great year :)
I love your personality, motivation, and most importantly, your classroom. I hope you have a great year.💜
You are so sweet!! Thank you :)
I love the Harry Wong classroom management book! It’s great! Loved seeing how you set up your library! Nice!
I'm glad to hear it!
Thank you! :)
GIRL you need a paper cutter! Love your signature aqua color and everything looks awesome :)
Edit! I saw the paper cutter haha, I was thinking you were cutting all that lamination by hand! phew
Haha! Yes - I have a little scrapbook paper cutter and a big paper chopper too!
Thanks! I love my "signature" color too :) So glad you're here!
If you want to use other categories in your library you can turn the bin around and put two months on each bin one on the front and one on the back so then when a new month comes around you can just take the old month books out flip the bin and put in new books.... then you will have extra bins for other categories
Great idea! Thanks!!
Me: I want to be a teacher so I can decorate my room!
Also me: Oh wait, I have to deal with kids, never mind!
Haha! Building relationships with the kids is the best part!
I've found my patience with other people's children is getting less and less. I even quit volunteering with the units in Boy Scouts and focus on training the adult staffers.
alaskancoppertop cool’
Love the way you organized your library! I'm going into middle school English, but your ideas are still super helpful. Thanks!
I'm so glad to hear it! I'm really happy with my library organization too :) Thanks for watching!
Oh my goodness, I couldn't live without the caffeine! I love your classroom colors!
Haha!
Thanks, I love them too! :)
HI!! I've been watching classroom set ups ALL WEEK and I stumbled across your videos! you are awesome! I am a freshman in college and I'm majoring in ELEMENTARY EDUCATION and I couldn't be more excited! ready to get college over with lol!
So glad you stumbled upon my videos! :)
You are so nice. Such a sweet soul. 🌸
Great idea to have a central "tool" box of supplies you need!
Thanks! My mom gave me that idea ;)
Best library organization video I've seen! Thanks so much!
Yay, I'm so glad to hear it! Thanks, Cyndi!! :)
I'm opening a daycare and am learning sooooooo much from this video. Thank you for caring enough to share :)
That's awesome, Erica! Thanks for sharing that with me. :) Best of luck!
Love that color girl good pick
This is so cool! Some of my teachers that I’ve had a while back have done something like this and I showed my teacher this and she’s been binge watching your videos!
That's so sweet! Thanks for sharing! 💕
I love these videos! 🌐💠
You are really inspiring I just organized my closet
Thanks so much for watching! YAY for getting organized! :)
I’m an education major and I can’t help but get sooo excited about becoming a teacher!❤️ This is a dream!❤️
Yay! I'm so excited for you, Marry! :) You're right - it really does feel like a dream come true!
Watched last video! Thank you for fixing alphabet's 😂😂😂👏👏
Haha, thanks for sticking around after the first video! ;) Yes - I am glad I got to fix it too!!
Great video! Sound was so much better!
I'm so glad! Thanks for the feedback! :)
If you have leftover bins you could always have puppets! My mom is my teacher she have the. My friends and I love them.
I love your classroom library organization!! I’m totally going to do that for next year! My summer teacher to do list is getting extremely long 😂
Thank you! It's definitely my favorite part of the room.
Mine is too! haha :)
Thanks for watching!
Great job
put labels on both sides of the book bins so when ur not using some books but wanna put others out u can just turn it around and put those books in there
Good idea! :)
Where did you get your iPhone ring light tripod? Totally need that for my setup vlogs lol so glad you were able to get a video up! My computer I’d super slow too so uploads take a while. Can’t wait to see more! Good luck during pre-planning week 💕
This is the one I bought! I'm really happy with it! It can be table-top height or as tall as a person standing up because it has telescoping legs!
That's why my Day 2 video is coming a week after my Day 1 video - my computer is really slow and has been acting up, too!
Thank you so much!! :)

Primarily Yours thank you so much! 💕
....that gap between y and z though. I'm sweating.
Haha! I added the word "and" in between Y and Z, I just hadn't made it yet when I filmed this video! :)
Thanks!!
I love your bins where you placed your index cards and other stuff. Where did you get them? Please
I love them too! They're from Big Lots :)
Love your library! Where did you get the tall bins for your library?
Thanks, Valerie! It's definitely my favorite part of our classroom.
They are "magazine bins" from Big Lots. They're currently not available on their website but I'm hoping they bring them back soon! 😊
I am enjoying your videos because its going to be my first year too in kindergarten, Thank ypu so much for taking the time to share. I would like to know from where you bought the labels, Thanks
Congrats! Thanks, I'm so glad you're enjoying them!

Maybe you should take the 2 months (the moth that it is right now and next month) and out them in the library and sort the books then once those two month are over change them to the next two months. Sorry if that’s confusing. But bacsically only keep two bins in your library for the next 2 months then change them to the next two months once those are over
Good idea! :)
Wow I love the class room setup so colourful my classroom is soooooo dull
Thanks! I wanted my room to be bright & inviting, but also calm and not overly stimulating at the same time :)
OMG... this looks so much more involved than moving house.
It kind of felt like it, haha! But it was all worth it :)
What paper did you use for your word wall? Is it vinyl?
How did you make the sticker for your library book? I would love to do that for my classroom library books
In Microsoft Word! :)
Love your videos! I teach Kindergarten too and this is my 2nd year! How come you have so much space between y and z on your alphabet? how many kids were on your list?
Awesome!
I added "and" in between Y and Z, I just hadn't printed it yet when I filed this video :) I have 20 kids!
New sub! I’m in college to get my Elementary education degree in Florida to be a kindergarten teacher! Any advice? Hopefully I’ll be in the classroom in less than 3 years 😊
You are an inspiration I want to Bea teacher like you
Aw, thanks! :)

Where did you get your crayons from?
😍🥰🥳🤩
Would you recommend the Scotch laminator? I've seen mixed reviews, so I'm not sure if I should spring for a crazy expensive one for my classroom.
YES! 1,000% yes! :)
I bought the Scotch Pro laminator for about $28 on Prime day last summer (I think it normally sells for $37). I ended up buying a second one so that I could have one at school and one at home because I was carrying it back and forth so much! I would definitely recommend getting one - it's been a game changer for me. :)
This is the exact one I have: www.amazon.com/dp/B00CLV8ZIU/?ref=exp_primarily.yours_dp_vv_d
Primarily Yours thank you for the response and the link! Love your videos :)
Where did you get your backpack from? Love your videos!!!!
It's Vera Bradley! It's the best because it's washable :)

How did you manage to get so much stuff for your first year if you don’t mind me asking? I’m working on finishing up my bachelors in elementary education.
Goodwill and garage sales are your best friends for books, games, play to learn stuff, and other activities! Facebook marketplace and garage sales are great places to find furniture for the classroom. Sales at Hobby Lobby and Michael’s will be your best bet for storage units and Big Lots has TONS of great bins. Make sure you google and see if there are coupons for stores you’re going to. Target Dollar spot has LOTS of great decor items and small activities directed at teachers and for school. Five Below (if you have one) has a ton of pillows and decor, and occasionally bins. Good luck!!!!
Lots of saving and planning! Most of my books I've gotten at thrift stores, Scholastic Book Clubs website, Scholastic warehouse sale, or my Amazon wishlist :) I saved up all of my birthday, graduation, & Christmas money for about four years so that I could purchase all of my storage bins, learning games, etc. this summer when it was time! :)
I love your classroom so far! Where did you get your alphabet from?
Thank you so much!
They are from Maria Gavin on TPT. I cut off the colored edges and mounted them on the aqua scrapbook paper :)
Just the alphabet:

I don’t like caffeine drinks either. I eat an apple in the morning if I need a pick me up. It’s proven to wake you up/give energy more the coffee
Thanks for the tip! :)
I had a doctors appointment yesterday
What is the spray for
I used a protectant spray on the pillows so that they wouldn't get dirty as quickly and I could spot-clean them more easily :)
Hello, I am Thais teacher. I am very interested in your decorating classroom. Can you share a link of stickers or your drive 25:09. Thank you.
The stickers came as a part of this set :)

where did you buy all of your sterilite bins and other containers?
Big Lots :)
I am Canadian. Is Big Lots a store
@@denisebauckman Yes, Big Lots is a store! I am not sure if they ship to/exist in Canada, but you could probably find out at their website! :) biglots.com
Lakeshore and Amazon wish list for your classroom and schedule kindergarten classroom
You print, laminate and then cut them out?
I know it saves time that way but i find my labels and such peel if i do it that way so i always print, cut, laminate, cut
If you use a personal laminator it is a thicker and better quality lamination so you can cut through it will no peeling.
The lamination typically used for school laminators is very thin and will definitely peel if you try to cut through it.
It depends on what it is - sometimes I cut first, sometimes I don't. If it's something the kids are going to handle, I will cut the paper, laminate, then cut again but leave a border so it doesn't peel :)
Im sorry im late im kinda new here when i grow up i will be a teacher
You're not late at all! I always wanted to be a teacher, too :)
If you store them in a separate box when you're not using them you could label each cubby on the shelf twice and just flip it around :)
Good idea! :)
It's looking great, but where are your procedures? Kinder needs EVERYTHING explained from day one.
Don't worry, I've been preparing curriculum and procedures too! Since this is a classroom set-up video, that's mostly what I focused on sharing :)
We 6 PM
Me: I want to be a teacher so I can decorate my classroom!!
Also me: do I want to get up at 6:00 everyday no, and do I want to go to meetings? Lol
Haha! It's worth it! :)
What a wonderful job but I just don’t see a use for all them bins lord
Haha! I have used about 90% of them so far! :)
Question: HOW do you get away with cutting AFTER lamination? I always have to cut first, then laminate, then cut again (with a slight border around) otherwise my lamination splits and it is a huge nightmare!!! Anybody else with me on this? What am I missing lol
Great question! It really depends for me to be honest, haha - it depends on if I am using my personal Scotch laminator (thicker) or the school laminator (thinner). And I also think about if it's something that the kids will be handling. For example, my sight word cards that will stay on the wall just as reference all year, I just laminated the whole sheet then cut. But for our sight word game cards that the kids will be touching every day, I cut, laminated, then cut again so I could leave a border :) Honestly, I think I have kind of just gotten lucky that my stuff hasn't peeled! haha
Wait to , do teachers not get any supplies
We get about $250 each year to purchase supplies like pencils, crayons, gluesticks, tape, etc. Anything beyond that is provided by teachers (if you want - not required!) :)
I made an excel chart of all the books I’ve bought too! I thought I was being extra
Not extra at all... wise is what you are!! :)
hey girl! Just found your channel! I'm a second year fourth grade teacher! Let me know if you need anything, I would love to connect! I'm a teacher tuber also :)
Hey! It's great to hear from you! I would love to connect & chat more :)
Primarily Yours yes!!!
I wonder why she ain’t/didn’t use the Christian books one. 🤔🤔. That’s kinda rude
Because I'm in a public school :)
Please fix the Z of the alphabet and move it over so there’s not a random space in between y and z
Blake banjanyy I was wondering why she did that .
She made 2 spaces for A and B so she missed the C that's why there's an extra space.
Later on I added the word "and" in between Y and Z. I left the space because I hadn't made the "and" yet :)
Why not the Christian books? You lost me after that comment
Because I teach at a public school. I am a Christian, but any sort of specifically-religious books are not allowed in our public school classrooms in the district where I teach. I wish I could, Andreah! :)
“forcing religious views” arent allowed in public schools. teachers arent allowed to say the religion or political views
