I’m a retired first grade teacher. I did butterflies every spring. When you attach the cloth with the chrysalis to the top of the net use tape with the sticky side up. Attach at the edge then gently tape to the top of the net. Hope that makes sense. Hang in there with the end of the year crazies!
I use an Erin Condren - already got mine for next school year! I have tried others but came back to EC within a month. Love that its so teacher friendly! I would love to do a "plan with me" style video or just share more about my planning once I get started at my new school. Will definitely have to figure it out a bit first :)
My kiddoes love making s'mores. We use a small box and wrap it in black construction paper and aluminium foil. Some years, Ill have 4 or 5 boxes. We set the boxes outside our back classroom door for about 3-4 hours. Happy Camping ! 💙
Hi! Would you mind to provide links for the resources you use for all of your theme days? I’m teaching first next year and would LOVE to have these resources for them.
I'm from the Midwest so I can't wait to hear what state you end up in. Congrats on the kindergarten position. I don't know you but from what I see in your videos you'll make an awesome kindergarten teacher. Best of luck on finishing out the school year, packing up and moving.
+Putting Them First Congratulations Lauren !!! First grade is going to miss you but look out for the first and last parts of next year when those kinders get all over you when they meet the beauty who is their teacher ( you ) . All the best to you on the moving . - Dwight
oh yay!!!! I am so excited for you to be a kindergarten teacher....but, if I am being honest, I am more excited that I get to watch videos of you teaching a new grade!! (That classroom set up is going to be bomb!!
Hi Lauren! If you ever do butterflies again, you can get a kit that comes with a little stand to hang the little paper on and you can actually tape or pin the paper they’ve attached themselves to, to the side of the butterfly “cage”☺️
I am so excited for you! I teach kindergarten too. Seeing their growth at the end of the year is incredible. It makes me cry happy tears too! Can't wait to hear your ideas.
So excited for you!! I’m moving from 3rd to 1st and I’m really excited. Kindergarten is my dream job but 1st is my second choice so I’m happy. Can’t wait to hear where you’re moving. I live in the Midwest. Good luck with the remainder of your year and your move! Congratulations again! ❤️
Yay! I’m so excited for you to teach K. We’ve had twin teaching journeys and I love it! This was my first year in K from 1st and it was a great year! Challenging at times, but so worth it! I LOVE K! Can’t wait to follow your journey to a new state and see how you enjoy K❤️🌟
Exciting! I taught Kinder for 3 years and now teach first grade! So the reverse of your career. Lol Kinder is such a special grade. The kids grow so much during that time. It’s a critical time to teach them to love school. You’re setting the tone for the rest of their educational career. I know you’ll be amazing!
Soooooo excited for you! Love that you will be in K- I am a K teacher. Do you plan on taking us with you through the whole new classroom set up like you did with your current classroom? I know its a lot- but selfishly, I hope so!
Congratulations, Lauren! Kindergarten is AMAZING and you are going to LOVE it!!! Excited for you and your husband. Can't wait to hear where exactly you two are moving, in due time of course. lol
Exciting times!! I find it so weird that you have to have different licences and qualifications from state to state. Here in England, you qualify as a teacher, and you can just teach anywhere in the country...no extra tests.
So excited for you! 💜 This was my first year teaching and I taught Kindergarten. It’s so amazing to see how far they come in such a short amount of time, we just had our last day of school yesterday and I already miss them so much!
Congrats on the new job. I'm actually moving to Western Massachusetts to teach. Any tips for teaching in massachusetts and getting certified since you said it was tricky.

Cool Name for your channel!😌
What planner do you use? I would love to see how you plan your day/week?

Non-fire way to create smores- use the sun! Kids can create a STEM contraption using tin foil and a shoebox and can cook the smores that way.

Congratulations!! Kindergarten teacher too. I cannot wait to see some of your ideas.
Wohoo! I’m a born and raised midwesterner! Someday I would love to move closer to a coast and experience beach life!
So happy for you! Glad you love teaching! After 32 years I miss it. Retirement is nice but lonely at times.

All the best to you on the moving .

So excited for you and your husband. I am assuming he got a new coaching position. Best wishes in Kinder. You will love it.
Our last day is the 17th so I feel this! And I teach Kindergarten and it has been the most fun challenging and gratifying experience!
My husband and I are also moving to the Midwest in august so that I can pursue my masters degree in Montessori education!

I’ll definitely do them again, so thank you for the advice!!
Congratulations on your move and new job in (K)! You will be an amazing (K) teacher. Good Luck! Please post next year! Have a great summer.
A million congratulations to you!
The new kids will learn from you,and you will continue to learn from kids!
😊
So happy to see a vlog from you. Congratulations on your new adventure!

Congratulations on moving and getting to teach Kindergarten. My preschoolers just had their graduation day yesterday. Love the littles
Thank you!! And congratulations on finishing your year. 💜
We did smores in my fifth grade class, but we microwaved the smores!
I am so excited for you! I teach kindergarten too. Seeing their growth at the end of the year is incredible. It makes me cry happy tears too! Can't wait to hear your ideas.
Thank you so much for sharing in my joy!! I cannot wait to join you in kinderland. 💖
So excited for you! Can't wait to follow along! 💛💛
You can make the s’mores and put then in your car in aluminum foil and they will be melted by the end of the day from the sun!
So excited for you!! I’m moving from 3rd to 1st and I’m really excited. Kindergarten is my dream job but 1st is my second choice so I’m happy. Can’t wait to hear where you’re moving. I live in the Midwest. Good luck with the remainder of your year and your move! Congratulations again! ❤️

I’ve taught kindergarten for 27 years now and I still love it!!!! ❤️
That is so encouraging!! Thank you. 💖
Congratulations on your upcoming adventure! I’m hoping to teach Kindergarten next year as well! Can’t wait for your next update! 🌼

Thank you!!! Hopefully soon - we’re already packing LOL
I am kind of jealous of you to be honest--we have 2 weeks and I still have a piiiiiiile of essays to grade.
Exciting times!!
I find it so weird that you have to have different licences and qualifications from state to state. Here in England, you qualify as a teacher, and you can just teach anywhere in the country...no extra tests.
For smores you could do pizza box solar ovens
