Wow I'm so envious of your school community and your students. I feel like this is how it should be but I haven't experienced that yet. It looks so supportive and loving.
My teacher said on the Monday of the last week of school that her friend was doing a survey on the favourite chocolate bars of kids so we all wrote them down then. On the Friday she gave us rapped presents with our fav chocolate bars a homework pass and a personalized card. It was so nice of her to do that and when i told my mam she nearly cried because it was so nice of her
Congratulations!! I already knew you were selected for the marathon from Insta but I’m crying happy tears for you hearing you talk about it. I’m excited for you!
Congrats!! You're such an inspiration! It's amazing how different a teacher's experience can be based on the school that s/he is at. I am so happy that you found a school where you could grow into the teacher you were meant to be. :)
Dollar Tree is a teacher’s best friend for student Christmas gifts. Next year you can get holiday fuzzy socks for only $1 each at Old Navy on Black Friday.
When you get sharpie on whiteboards and you can't get it off with the expo markers or the expo spray use perfume I did it once and it works great and makes your board smell good
Congrats, Michelle!! I teared up when you teared up! That Kingdom of Gallon thing was genius! Thank you! Merry Christmas and can’t wait to see the training vlogs :)
Merry Christmas! Congratulations on getting into the Boston Marathon. Good luck with your training. Thanks for a great year of videos. I watch while I exercise. Makes the minutes fly by.
I cried for you too when you shared your Boston story! Thank you Michelle for being an inspiration to so many of us teachers. I love your vlogs , I get so many great ideas from you, and honestly, it’s so heartwarming to feel connected to you and this awesome community of teachers! Congratulations on all the wonderful, positive things in your life, and may 2018 continue to bring you great joy, good health, and endless success!
I am so happy for you I live 5 miles away from Boston and watch the marathon every year on tv and I hope that you can finish the 26 miles easily. Your students and peers are so cute at your school. LETS GO BOSTON!!!
Wow! Congratulations! You are amazing. 😊 I love your videos, your honesty and your spunk! I don't know how anyone could ever dislike your videos! Hugs and happy new year! 😊
CONGRATULATIONS! You deserved that all. You're so blessed to be a blessing. Keep it up your good passion in teaching. Spread more your success. You inspired all of us watching you and walk through you. I can't wait to teach and be you. Late Merry Christmas. Iloveyouu Michelle. 😊😘😘💕 By the way, I'm from Philippines. 💕
Another great video, Michelle! I think you should include your workout/fitness vlog with your teaching vlog. Many of us teachers struggle with the time demands of our jobs and finding time/energy for fitness. Would love to see how you do it! Also, my 8 year old son says you should make a video of your best life moments and include your students congratulating you on the Boston Marathon! So cute!
I got my brother that sloth ornament as his first Christmas ornament in his own house! I love getting gifts from students. Especially when they make things themselves or write little notes
I love your handwriting! Buying gifts for all your classes can add up but the students love receiving and giving to their teachers! Blessings and Happy New Year!
Congratulations for getting on the team to participate in the Boston Marathon! What an honor! Have a wonderful winter break and thank you for sharing your life and teacher journey with us! God bless you.
Coffee + your vlogs make my entire day! I am beginning my journey of becoming a teacher next semester & you give me such motivation to becoming an awesome teacher ❤️
McKenzie.Lakynxo I wish I had vlogs like this when I was a student teacher! You learn so much from them. I have a channel as well. Check it out if you have a chance! 🤗
Congrats girl! I really admire your vlogs 🤗 You have inspired me to begin my own teacher vlog journey. My channel is new, but I am having so much fun so far! 💞
Your an awesome teacher!!! Your spirit and attitude are both amazing. I've been teaching for 10 years and have never experienced the love that you are and have been shown by those around you!!! Keep being fabulous. 😊
Omg thank you for posting a long video I'm currently on in a bus heading to Washington dc from new York on a vacation so this will make my 4 hour ride go faster
Congratulations Michelle!!!! I am so excited for you making it in the Boston Marathon! Hope you have a fantastic holiday break! As a senior in high school, I've probably said this before, but Michelle, you have inspired me to look towards a career in the education world. I would like to teach culinary arts to students as a life skill and to help them with their career options down the road. I can't thank you enough for your positive and encouraging vlogs every week. That's what makes the weekend always great, is to see your videos pop up!
Oh my gosh only one week at Christmas is insane! Here in Australia it is our summer break so we have 6 weeks off 😀 Your jumper is so cute, we miss all that fun wintery Xmas stuff as we're sweating our bums off! Haha congrats on your news though thats super exciting. Well done!
I went to Hobby Lobby and got some of my gifts for my students next year. I got them DIY ornaments that you can put the students picture in for .12 cents per ornament. I got cello bags for .2 cents per bag. Then I’ll just reuse my Christmas bookmarks from TPT this year and add some candy and a pencil. So cheap and easy!!!
Hey Michelle! Have you ever zip ties your desk sections together? It would make straightening up so much easier. Just a suggestion! Hope You’re having a wonderful break!
Congrats on making the team. As for gifts, I still remember getting those little gifts from my teacher and I was really grateful and appreciative but with that said I also really loved making ornaments so even if you just did a craft with the kids, they would probably love that just as much and it's something they would probably keep to decorate their tree for years. My favorites were the little pipe cleaner candy cane ornaments.
yes...it was a long week. we did the full week all day as well. Children and adults were antsy all week. glad to watch your week fly by! glad you made us a long vlog too.... Congratulations on achieving your goal of being a part of the Boston marathon. with all the runnin' round that you do everyday...this race will be a cinch for you. Hope your Christmas was lovely. laura
Waiting for winter break is the worst! In the past we always got out on Wednesday....I almost cried when I realized we had to go until Friday! We are lucky enough to have two weeks off. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Enjoy your time off!
I also gave dough. You made a cute note to go with it. I passed the dough out to make rectangular prisms, pyramids, cylinders, etc. We counted faces, edges, etc. When done I told students they got to take them home.
Congratulations on getting picked for the Boston marathon! I am so envious of your card lettering! I done something similar this year for my Christmas cards. I would love to know how you do it!
Congratulations again, Michelle! That's an AWESOME opportunity! I hope you had a relaxing and enjoyable Christmas and are rejuvenating for the new year to come! Thank you for sharing the last crazy week before Christmas! This year has been so much better for you physically, stress-wise, and mentally and it shows in the joy you have on your face! I'm so GLAD you are in a better place this year, literally and figuratively! Have a fabulous rest of your break and see ya soon on YT! Love and hugs! Jennifer
Hi Michelle, I just wanted to say how different your experience has been this year! You have a different "presents" about you, do you see what I did there,hehe. I am soo happy to see this change, it made me sad to see you almost in tears in half of the videos last year. Also, congrats on going to Boston, I hope you share the experience with us! #MerryChristmasismyfavoritetimeofyear!
Yay! Love your video as always. What a creative idea to give the little dough container to your block students! I’m so sorry you had to call all the tags with the Xacto knife but kudos for coming up with a cute inexpensive idea. I hope the students appreciated it. I’m also so happy that you made it to the Boston team. I’ll be rooting for you along the way. I love how the unicorn is the symbol for the marathon, “Chasing after something that is difficult to be caught!” How beautiful! Reminds me of when I did the Miami Marathon but I only did half of that. Maybe one day I’ll do the full one. Wishing you the best as always. Have a super restful break!
I’m one of your biggest fan I love watching you.I get so happy watching u. Your students are the luckiest kids to have u as a teacher.Fyi I love all your sweaters.
I feel like I have a ton to comment about. Lol. First of all, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and that you are enjoying your break!! Congrats again on making the team for the Boston Marathon! I totally connected with you on That part of the day when you walk away from your phone and your significant other called you 700 times - happens all the time! I also have been getting Ipsy bags for about 2 years- they are hit or miss. Some months are better than others. My second grade students love Kahoot! And I did a Christmas trivia with my own kids at home. Haha. Lastly, I am totally interested in seeing the fitness vlogs - bring them on!
Congratulations Michelle!! I know how much you were hoping to be chosen for the team. How amazing!! You will do awesome :) what a great early Christmas present! Your vlogs are my favorite ! Im sorry you only got a week for break. You deserve 2!! Also, thats a "Cassie" Lularoe skirt!
Congrats!!!!! Super excited to see how you train for the marathon!!! If you can, keep it in your weekly vlogs. Would love to see how you work in training + teacher life + personal life. On another note, this “OG subscriber” notices how much happier you are than last year!! You give me hope that maybe I haven’t found the right school yet. Keep inspiring!
One Pretty Little Box I had it for a year, but cancelled it after getting too many highlighters 😂 I have a teaching channel as well. Check it out if you get a chance 🤗
Congratulations Michelle you deserve it!! I hope you had a nice Merry Christmas. Looking forward to next year videos. I would like to see how you train and the foods you eat for the upcoming Marathon. Because of the holidays sweet treats and good food gained weight want to lose it. Let's start the new year right Happy and Healthy. Have a Happy New Year 2018. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Your student who sent you the Merry Christmas Email is definitely a future teacher in the making. You are such an inspiration to all. What a gift!
Kim George That is so sweet
Especially when she said lesson planning was annoying and painful 😂!!!
Wow I'm so envious of your school community and your students. I feel like this is how it should be but I haven't experienced that yet. It looks so supportive and loving.

Such an awesome idea.. but I was that kid in school that never used them and just used it at the end of the year for EC or something
My teachers just yell at us
I cried when you told your story time I don't know why haha. It was just so cute and I'm so happy for you. Congratulations!!!
Same...I don't even know this teacher well, just got here from 1 other video of hers but already feel like I care about her. So sweet and caring!
Congratulations!! I already knew you were selected for the marathon from Insta but I’m crying happy tears for you hearing you talk about it. I’m excited for you!

Michelle I'm so happy for you! I hope you enjoy your break! You look so happy!!!!
I printed and laminated thank you cards this year with a magnet if the kiddos want to hang it up on a fridge. It saved me SO MUCH time!
