Heating up chocolate milk is definitely the way to go! I do the same with my classes. Easier for you and no powder scattered about. I love your enthusiasm for the holiday break and i completely understand the "over planning". So much easier to ditch sometime rather than try to figure out sometime too fill in the time. I hope you've enjoyed and relaxed through break. See you in 2025.
Do you know how many times I paused this video because I thought the jingling bells was my cat climbing the Christmas tree? 😂 I finally figured out it was you! I love how much you love what you do and your students. I’m sure they feel that and they will always remember you and how you made them feel. While I am sad that I will have to wait over a week for your next video, I’m happy that you are taking g time for yourself to enjoy the break! I can’t wait to hear about your trip! Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎉
It looks like your students had a lot of fun. I am going into my teacher training next year and hoping to be as inspiring to my students as you are to yours. I am hoping to do a few classroom transformations and fun activities. Hope you have enjoyed your winter break and Happy New Year.
It sounds as if the winter party was fabulous. MERRY CHRISTMAS and Happy New Year to you and Billy plus your fur baby. Have a wonderful and relaxing time off! It's been fun watching you reenter the teaching and all of the activities you do with the kids!
Merry Christmas! I get that brain dead at the end of the day before break. I hope you and Billy enjoy your time together. Have lots of good food. See ya next year!
Happy winter break and happy holidays, Michelle! It sounds like your students thoroughly enjoyed the activities, food, and prizes. Everything looked festive and fun. I hope you are enjoying a well- deserved winter break! 💜
I do a pancake breakfast at the end of the year for my promoting 8th graders. I mix the batter the night before and use a funnel to put it into gallon milk jugs. Super easy to pour from and it’s already prepped that morning. When it was a little less expensive, I even served bacon or sausage - precooked and just needed to heat up. I love that Costco bag. It was like a little clown car with the amount of ‘stuff’ you kept pulling out!! 😂
keep in mind with the chocolate milk idea if you have a kid thats lactose intolerant i am lactose intolerant i can drink hot chocolate but have to use lactaid milk (luckily mines not severe enough that i react to chocolate) thats easy you can make it with the powder just warm up the milk like you would that way.
Younger teachers - don't feel that you need to do all this. This expectation is unrealistic for most teachers. Don't feel obligated to spend your own money. This is a lesson I wish I learned much sooner as a teacher. You can still be an amazing and thoughtful teacher without all this extra stuff. Relationships first.
Winter party and winter break is inclusive of students who may not celebrate Christmas. It is not about being ashamed; it’s about being respectful of diverse experiences in a shared environment. Merry Christmas 🎄
@@AWINningCombinationI believe that we should be able to express what we believe and celebrate in our civilization! If someone don't believe the same he should respect our beliefs! If we must not express ourselves nowadays in order to be politically correct, , she shouldn't even be dressed like an elf because others may don't like her suit!! This is Christmas vacations and whoever may respect it , or just ignore it!

Michelle,
When your students enjoy what you do it's a success story.
You looked good in your outfit.
Merry Christmas !

I hope you rest up this break! You overwork, I’m tired watching your videos.
