Your videos are very helpful even for seasoned teachers. Always nice to see a real teacher sharing so many details in her actual classroom.
Loving the new format. I've taught first grade for 28 years and followed you for the last few. I love teaching first grade and love your ideas and thought process that goes into your lessons. But honestly, now that you are back in a first grade classroom, I love and appreciate you even more. Watching you organize, develop, and actually use your materials and other wonderful ideas couldn't be any better. P.S. Fabulous earrings!
Love your videos! Veteran teacher of over 30 years and your videos are just energizing. Thank you for sharing, it is very much appreciated.
Happy Holidays. May your holiday break be relaxing and enjoyable.
I look forward to your videos each week! Thank you for the inspiration. I’ve been doing this for 25 years and sometimes I need a refresher and a kick in the butt to make my classroom more engaging. I love your routines and structure. I feel blessed to have found you! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Thank you, Susan. You are doing an amazing job balancing family, work, TH-cam, life, self-care , and school requirements.
I know it is not easy. Let your family know how much we appreciate them as well.
You all have a blessed and wonderful winter break.
Thank you, Susan. I just finished watching and loved it. I know. you must be exhausted as am I !! It has been quite the fall. Enjoy your family and hopefully some time to yourself. Happy New Year and thank you so much!!!
This is actually my first year teaching, so watching your videos are so inspirational!!
Thank you for sharing! I love seeing what other teachers do. Our first grade classes also did a Christmas Around the World. I loved your Gingerbread unit. We did activities with several Christmas themed books as well. When I return in January, I’ll do a winter unit teaching about snowflakes, snow, etc… Hope you had a blessed Christmas! 🎄
Thanks for sharing ideas. I have some for next year! Glas to hear (not so much for you lol) that you’ll be going back sooner than me. I’m interested in what boot camp looks like and have some time to prepare or plan before I go in
Thank you for the ideas. We also played hide the Gingerbread man all week long during Morning meeting so everyone had a chance to hide and then find. I love all your ideas and videos. Happy Holidays to you and your family!
I love your videos! It’s great to see how you are using resources in the classroom!
I just love your ideas and videos. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!
Absolutely LOVE that you are continuing your videos. Thank you for always sharing such wonderful information and resources! ❤ NH First Grade Teacher
Love your videos! I’m a retired teacher, but still sub K-5.
Love your videos. Thanks so much for the time you take to share your ideas. Happy Holidays to you and your family!
I’ve really been enjoying your videos and seeing what you’re doing in the classroom. Hope you have a restful break!
❤❤ your videos
Thank you for all your ideas! Can you share more about your WIN time? Is this something that your entire school participates in? I think I remember you talking about it in another video. I was just curious. When do your reading interventionists pull your students for reading support? I have many students pulled out throughout the day. Also, how long does it take for you to prep for a week? Thanks again for sharing a peek into your classroom each week. They are wonderful and I so appreciate the time you take to share your ideas. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Honest question… Susan, how do you fit in all of the fun “extra” stuff with your regular curriculum? The struggle is real. The only time I can fit in is when our elective is canceled. Thank you for your time. Merry Christmas!
Great question!! I truly don't often fit in any fun stuff lol - our yealry pacing guide just happened to work out that this week was a review week for math and writing! We kept phonics the same this week and taught Fundations, unit 6 and assessed Thursday. In Math, we reviewed numbers within 20 (identifying, ordering, and comparing), and instead of writing and social studies, our grade level opted to do the holidays around the world!
We were already teaching fairy tales in our genre study, so gingerbread fit right in! And then I switched up my normal format for small groups this week and instead of following the format I normally follow, I included a bunch of fun gingerbread themed activities that I showed in the video! Still phoneme-grapheme mapping, still decodables with sequencing and comprehension, just gingerbread themed!d Our class thrives on structure and routine, so we kept our daily schedule the same each day and just subbed different activities!
Thank you for all your wonderful ideas! I would love to know how you store your materials after the holidays? I have a problem putting things away so they are neat and organized for next year. Love to know your organization ideas. Thanks! Happy New Year!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I enjoy your videos. I teach first grade. I am curious about what you use to edit your videos. We had a bit of a longer break than you did. I felt like our Christmas time was rushed and I didn't have time to do all the fun Christmas activities. I love the idea of Gingerbread Man for Fairytales. I also taught fairytales but did not use Gingerbread Man. Great idea. Thanks for sharing I will use that next year.
Thank you for the video, definitely gave me some ideas for next year. When you return to the classroom after break will you do any winter themed activities or just jump back into what you were doing before the holidays came? Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas to you as well!! When we get back from break, we will definitely be having Jones bootcamp and go over routines and procedures and rules, etc.! We will also be getting right back into our regular curriculuum!
@@SusanJonesTeaching What do you do for Jones boot camp now you got me interested lol?
Where is your gingerbread plush and your chair close to your easel/rug area from?
Hello! I was wondering if you were LETRS trained? Or if you could give me your opinion on LETRS. My school will be offering professional development in this area and it is a 2 year commitment. Would appreciate anyone’s thoughts on this program. Thank you!!
