I never thought to email/call parents to say how great their child is! After watching this I emailed 10 parents just to say their child was being amazing! Thank you
I used this many times over the years it’s the ultimate good news phone call a parent can receive!😃👍🏿
I’d love a full video on lesson planning! 😍
Jaymie Heintz me too
Same
ME TOO!
A video on lesson planning would be awesome! I am a special ed major at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and I totally would love to see that so I can learn more about it before I start teaching for myself! I also, would really really like it if you gave us pointers on outfits for school! I sometimes have a hard time choosing outfits that are good for elementary school. I currently work in a fourth grade classroom as a reading and math tutor so I need appropriate and stylish outfits!!! Thanks!
Me too please. I saw your older one but would love new ideas especially with digital/Google doc ideas - & just your process itsel.
You inspire me every day. When ever I feel overwhelmed I watch one of your videos and it makes me feel less alone. Thank you for all you do.
Yes, please do a vlog on lesson planning.
Yess! Haha I would love a lesson planning video!
I would looooove a lesson planning video from you! Thank you for all the time and effort that you put into this channel (and your teaching!!)
I love waking up on the weekend and watching your videos! They have just become essential to my Sunday morning! 😍
She gets into her actual planning around 17:00 for those wondering. Loved the video! Just was looking for tips on how to lesson plan, being a new teacher myself
Edit: she has a 101 for lesson planning. Very good.
Hi Michelle!! You are a Awesome Teacher. Your Students are very Lucky to have you for a teacher and you are so well organized.
Michelle,
Thanks for making the effort to put all the links below. Such a great help. You can go right to them during your video to see details, saving or adding them to where ever and less chance of forgetting your amazing resources.
Thanks a lot for all you share.
I just want to tell you that you are so awesome! You truly care so much about your students. I'm inspired.
I’d love to see a planning video! Also, I’m a 20 year veteran and I still have those frustrating days. I lost my mind just last Friday when I caught a group of students behind my desk looking at my computer screen-which had private emails showing. I was livid! I can’t even remember what I said but when I cooled down we had a class discussion why they should never go behind my desk without permission. Now I will make sure to have that discussion at the beginning of the school year! Live and learn! You are an awesome teacher! ❤️
Your honesty about not being the best teacher one day was SO comforting for me to hear from a more experienced teacher. I am in my first year, and I beat myself up all the time about getting frustrated with my students.
I feel that so much! Year 1. This comment was posted 2 years ago, how are you doing?
@@myrandarosenbaum9332 lol, not teaching anymore XD That first year completely wrecked my mental health. I had to take FMLA for depression for the rest of the semester and then I signed my resignation papers. I had a lot of trauma that I needed to heal from at that time, and teaching kind of forced me to face it all at once. I'm doing much better now, working in the software industry, and considering returning to teaching in the future! Please take care of yourself
I cannot possibly thank you enough for all that you do. I am a first year 3rd grade teacher and since I graduate college two years ago I am out of practice! Your ideas and tips are helpful and overall you make me feel so much more confident in my ability to do this. Thank you so much! I hope you have a wonderful school year! ♥️🍎
I'm not a teacher, but I love your channel and am a mom of three and I love that you send positive emails to your kids' parents! My oldest is in first grade and his teacher added a nice note about him when she replied to a question I sent her and it honestly made my whole day!
I love that you send emails to parents with positive things they did. My daughter isn't in school yet but as a mom that would make me feel so good that they are being good at school and would make me feel good that the teacher cares enough to take the time to tell me somthing good she did instead of just paying attention to the negative things like a lot of teachers do
yes! as someone who is getting familiar with goodnotes and is a future educator I would love to see that!
Thank you for the videos!
Note for those in a hurry: Lesson planning info starts at 15:45
Yes, please make a video on digital lesson planning and your lesson planning process in general! I'm curious how much freedom you have to deviate from curriculum and, when you do add your own lessons, how you go about creating those lessons! I am a senior studying Elementary Education and I have been watching your videos since the your review of the pencil sharpener like two years ago haha. I absolutely love your videos and have found so many things that I want to incorporate into my own future classroom. Thank you so much for all that you do for other educators!
Full video!!!! Just started digital planning with my teacher planner and I love it! I made my own so I customized all my tabs and the number of them and my page templates! Life changing!
I use Bridgette's planner for college, life, and anything else that needs to be planned. I love it and I love her videos. Its awesome to see a local teacher on TH-cam. I think I have seen u around.
I think your a great teacher! Never doubt yourself!
❤️ You got this! You are a rockstar!
The Lettered Classroom Love your comment to Michelle! One ROCK STAR ⭐️ to another ROCK STAR 🌟 You both Rock!
I wish I could have rated this blog its 5 star!! I love your enthusiasm and willingness to continue to learn and grow! It's what makes GREAT teachers!
Loved how you differentiated the hundred chart activity. Also, I agree that it's so important to build and maintain positive relationships with parents and it's awesome you've made time to do it! Gives me hope that I can manage my time well enough to do that also.
yes yes YESSSS please do a full video or videos (I know that's pretty demanding, sorry hehehe) on your lesson planning! I'm a high school biotech teacher for my first year and I'm still trying to find what the best lesson planning methods/tools/styles of organization are best for me and my courses! I know that you're a primary school teacher however I still find plenty of helpful tips and advice from your vlogs! Thanks so much in advance!!! - Ms. C
I love watching these because i get to see what it is like to be a teacher. Makes me think i should be a little better to my teachers
Yes!!! Please do a full and detailed video on lesson planning! Thank you in advance. I don't know how you do it especially now with grad school but boy am I glad you do :) :)
Hi Michelle! I absolutely love your videos. Do.you think you could make a video on grad school? I know everyone's experience can be different but I'd love to hear yours!
Michelle yes please do this too!! I am about to start, probably next fall and I would love advice/tips if you have any :)
You are amazing, Michelle! Your kids are lucky to have you as their teacher this year 🤓 I would love to see a full lesson planning video!
I would love a full lesson planning video! I’m currently a freshman in college majoring in Elementary and Special Education, and you’ve inspired me so much!!!
A full video of unit and lesson planning would be amazing. I love how organized you are. So inspiring!
Hi Michelle I’m not so interested in a lesson plan video but for everyone who is interested go for it you have inspired me to be a teacher and I love your classroom
I LOVE my physical planner but contemplated a digital planner. So yes, show us what you do and how it works for you. I may move to digital next year!!! Thank you for sharing!!
It impresses me how hard teachers work and how they have the energy of working so hard for the best for the students ❤️
You are just awesome! I love your enthusiasm and dedication to teaching. You are truly blessed with a wonderful gift.
I will graduate from college next year and I will be English teacher for Primary kids I'm so excited and nervous anyway thanks for the amazing advices 👍❤ God bless you
Another great watch, I send positive mini certificates home for my students and your right it’s that relationship building that makes a world of difference. I liked the stickers you created on your planner. Smiles from NZ.
you are one of my favorite youtubers and you always inspire me to do anything. i would love to be your student because you seem like such a fun teacher and your very hardworking. i watched your videos a few times before and was in love with them but this last week after your last video, i fell in love with your channel and couldn’t stop watching videos. i rewatched so many videos because i’ve watched literally all your videos.
Please do a full video on lesson planning!😍
Yes , please do a full video of digital planning. You and Bridgette awesome 💜
Love love love this!! I’m a fourth grade teacher too. It is so refreshing to watch your videos. They are so positive and helpful. 😊
Yes! Would love a video on digital lesson planning and/or life planning!
Yes please make a full video on lesson planning! And what is your secret for staying so motivated to get all your work done?
Yes PLEASE! Full Lesson Planning Video.
Yes please digital lesson planning!! I recently because a student teacher because I was inspired by you! I am in charge of lesson planning and grading so I’d love to see the digital lesson planning as well as maybe some organization tips or tricks on how to grade effectively. You’re awesome!!
Wow you are a teacher full time, do TH-cam regularly, video shoots, and grad school.... That's amazing!!!!
Yes, please! It'll be so helpful as a college student who is starting to lesson plan but doesn't know where to start.
Yes!! Please show us a planning session!
I loved this. I'm a high school teacher and never do enough lesson planning because while we're still working on behaviours, we can't really learn much content. And I need time to relax and sleep too: the other day I found my first stress-induced grey hair, and I'm not even 30 yet.
I've seen some digital planners, but I prefer the hardcopy planner. Especially since we need to keep and file our teacher diaries each year. The act of physically writing out what I'm doing with each class each day makes it easier to remember once I get into the class, and it's fairly easy to cross it out and write what we ended up doing if the original plan didn't work. If I had a tablet computer or had an online planner that was maybe kept in the cloud (so I could access it from school AND home), I would maybe consider using it.
The furthest I've gotten is to make a term long planner for a particular class, especially when there's lots of school events and other things where we lose some class time to cover a topic. Days of the week across the top, week numbers down the side. I can grey out the boxes where we don't have lessons, as well as school events. Highlight lessons that will be used for a class exam or similar. Then map out what needs to be taught in which lessons to get through the topic. Sadly, I've rarely made it through completing and using the term outline.
You look like really cool teacher plus happy and passionate for teaching loved it
I’m not even a teacher, I’m in 7th grade but I find this very amusing and fun, this really wants me to become a teacher even though you show your struggle you still love your job and understand that you have room for improvement, I really find teaching fun, even though it can be stressful it still seems fun.
Yes! please do a planning video and a sticker making video! That would be so helpful! I also purchased Bridget's planner. Love it, but would love some tips and tricks. thanks!
Yes, please! Lesson planning video all the way!
You make such a great mentor teacher. I bet your intern is going to learn so much
HELLO BIRTHDAY TWIN!!!! My birthday is also October 14th!!! I knew that you were exceptionally awesome to me for some reason. :) Love your videos. I am a BRAND new teacher and this is my 2nd career. I also am in grad school, so I completely understand when you talk about life. Keep the great vids coming!! XO
I would love a video on digital lesson planning. Thanks for all your hard work you put into this TH-cam channel.

I'm student teaching in 4th grade. I printed these for my kiddos. Great Find!!!
Would love a video on lesson planning. Also, not sure if this is possible, but I would love a video on actually teaching the lesson plan. As challenging as it may be to create a lesson plan, I think it's even more challenging to actively teach and follow the lesson plans. Love your videos! 😊
I’m so glad to have been on your brow journey with you. I remember you saying people were commenting on them not being equal and stuff aaaages ago and now your brows are amazing!! Also you are such an amazing teacher, you inspire me so much. I watch your videos all the time and they make me feel so excited and motivated to go and do my job!! I teach in the uk and I just love you (and your brows) so much. Sending you so much love xxxxxxxxx

Argh for the tough days! But we all have them, and you’re right. Reflecting is essential! Hope this week is a better one for you! Also I’m totally borrowing your birthday idea! ✅✅✅
I would love a lesson planning video. Even though it's year 16 for me, I love your organization, routines, and ideas.
All about the digital lesson planning video! Definitely more of my system than the written variety.
YAY!!! I'm super early! Your vlogs are my FAVORITES to watch by far! I'm a primary education major and have absolutely loved watching your journey thus far! Love you, Michelle.
You make wonderful / amazing videos. Love watching your teacher videos. Thank you for showing how you lesson plans. Yes please do a full video about lesson planing. I am a high school student.
Question: Do you have to turn your plans in? I teach for a charter school. I have taught for 15 years. We were just given a new template. It is an entire page for each lesson. We have to write a KNOW/ SHOW for everyday. ( what the kids need to know/ What the kids need to show.) Written out standards, Written out materials. Written out I DO/ YOU DO/ and WE Do. Then we have write a summary paragraph and what we are using for an exit ticket explained in detail. I know I just have to suck it up and do it but man the time it is taking from my week. I feel that I have proved myself and should not have to write such detailed plans. EVERYONE has to do it so it not just me.
the specificity of the plan seems like it would be a charter school requirement imo.
The education students at my college have to do such plans so they get into the habit of paying attention to detail
At my public school, we put our plans on a program called Eduphoria. Our admins can check them online. We include warm ups, objectives, higher order thinking questions, independent work, assessment. I think there’s more, but I can’t remember right now.
I see the benefit of writing detailed plans in teacher's college. It is important to get into the habit of thinking about these things. But after awhile you start to do it in your head and honestly, it becomes more for admin than yourself & students. And while templates can be helpful, I don't understand having to use a specific template. We all teach differently; we should be able to use what works best for us and our students. I only have to turn in detailed plans when I am being evaluated. I can't imaging having type up 7 pages of plans a day...
I would love a full video on digital lesson plan. It would be so helpful for someone new
Thank you for sharing your ideas with us,, please consider making a full video about digital planing 🌹
I would love to see an in-depth look at your lesson planning! I recently got an iPad as well with the hopes of using it for teaching. That video would be so helpful, just like all your other videos!
I’ve just recently found your channel and I absolutely love it! You are so positive and it really does rub off. I would love a video on digital planning. It looks so useful and effective. Keep up the hard work!
Yes please do a lesson planning video that would be so great
This year in college we had to make SMART goals for our field placements if we have them 🤞. My goal is to identify at least 3 students each week that this something positive that I could potentially contact a parent about. Obviously as a preservice teacher I am not allowed to contact parents but identifying the positive reasons for contact is still great!
Yes please a full video on lesson planning
Would LOVE more on your digital lesson planning!
Yes please do a video on lesson planning!
