- Been a hot minute... but we are rocking it in first grade, y'all! So happy to share our first day with you guys. Even happier that we are rounding the corner now at week 3 to some normalcy with routines, procedures, and curriculum. Nothing like beginning of the year teacher tired! What videos do you want to see this year? Let me know down below. Love y'all, mean it!

I love the excitement. How many parents will be showing the children of this class these vlogs
I don’t know why this video come across my suggestions however I’m glad it did..
I’m a 29 year old male in the UK and had a horrible time at school leaving with zero qualifications and I’m now having to study as an adult…
The point I’m making is if every teacher was like you everyone would love school..
I really like ur videos and you inspire me to do well as an adult learner! Keep it up x
Your enthusiasm is amazing, hopefully all of your students have shown up by now. By week 2 half of my students got quarantined so I have been teaching only 6 kids in person. Lots of one on one. 😆
wow your kiddos are so lucky to have a dedicated teacher such as you!! I hope you have a fantastic rest of the school year!
You make me smile within a few SECONDS of the video! You are contagious and I love youuuuuuuuuuuu! Also yes, only having part of your class makes it soooo hard to practice those routines, but you will get there don't worry :) Also I'm going to be starting fine motor bins in my room next week, but maybe you could just incorporate some of those activities as early finishers?
Congrats on the air conditioning and in school learning. I had a white spaghetti strap eyelet dress like that in the early 80's.
Loved that dress. ☺️. Been watching since you were a first year, first grade teacher in Massachusetts. I'm a 15 year infant teacher in corporate daycare in Ohio. Your love for your job, the kids and your enthusiasm keep me coming back. Hope you have a great year.
Thank you so much for sticking around here! Have a great year. 💖
so happy about your air conditioner!! we’ve been waiting! congrats your first week Lauren:)
You and me both!! Thank you. 💖
Ripping paper, playdoh, clothespins are all great for fine motor! Also if you place a cotton ball in the child’s palm (so they can grasp it) as they hold their pencil will help them with their pencil grasp :)
I’m really behind on vlogs, so I just skipped 2 of your set up videos to come see what was so exciting about your first day. GIRL. AN AIR CONDITIONER?! The first day of school didn’t have to go off like that!!!! Real in person kids AND AC. Teaching goals 🤣
Thank you for sharing your classroom and gratz on the Ac
Congratulations on the first day!
Makes me happy!
Be careful,be safe.
This could turn out to be another crazy one.
So,PLEASE,continue to put them first,ok?
☺️
Always!! 😊
Congratulations Lauren on your first day of school. Loved the dress and earrings. I have watched your vlogs for a long time. They are always interesting and informative. The thing I truly love about you is your sense of humor. Your facial expressions are priceless. I laughed so much when you discussed the black garbage bag covering the fan.😂 You are a comedian. Have a fun and successful school year. Your children will love you!
Thanks so much, Nicole! Glad to share some giggles. 💖
I was so happy to hear about your A/C! I hope Kim from Elementary in the Mitten gets some A/C too! I have 20 but only had 13 this past week for quarantine and haven't had all 20 one day yet.
Love love first grade. As a substitute teacher I just love that grade. Good luck to you.
Yay! Sounds like a fun day. Today was our first day and it was wonderful! 💙❤️
I’m so happy to hear that! Wishing you the most amazing day 2.
Yaaaaaaaaay!!!! You and your Littles FINALLY have AC!!!!!!!
One idea that I did to help with pencil grip one year was: have the children bring in one sock. Your cut out 2 holes; one for the thumb and one for the index finger. The rest of the fingers stay inside the sock. I was teaching 2nd graders at that time. Good luck! 👍😁🍎✏️🖍
Congratulations on making it through! I wonder if the other 8 kids will come soon? I teach middle school and my first day was a little light too in # of students. It's tough because I've had to go over everything again and again as kids filtered in.
They have trickled in! I’m sorry you experienced the same.
I teach 6th (still elementary in my district) and had 4 kids gone on day 1. By day 3 my entire class had to quarantine. Mad rush to move online... My class returns this Friday, but my young daughters entire class just got quarantined yesterday... Not a pretty year so far. Your students are so lucky to have you, best of luck this year!
This video was in my recommended videos. First time seeing you. I love how enthusiastic you are! You actually remind me of actress Candice King. 😃
Very cool!
It was so crazy to hear you say that you’re a 3rd year 1st grade teacher! 😳 That time seems to have gone so fast!
Crazy for me to even say when I still haven’t had a full year in my classroom. 😅
That starvin Marvin reference made me giggle lol
Not going to lie, instead of being excited about the new air conditioner, I truly thought you were going to say that you were excited that the number chart behind you stayed up over the weekend for the first time in 2 years!! Hahaha......I have been watching since the first video and that dang chart is always on the ground....am I right? lol. Have a great year Lauren! All the best to you and your sweet first graders!
😂😂😂 STOP that is so accurate. But as a side effect of the AC, less has been falling (melting off the wall)!
I thought the same thing!!!😂
Hello grade one!!! Only seven students?? I had between 24-37 students in the different schools I supply taught in. I had to provide enough activities and teach lessons as always. My classes were always FILLED WITH STUDENTS!!!! The other teachers ran away so I accepted the supply work. I adapted to large schools with large classes and PLENTY OF WORK TO DO!!!!! Thank you kindly for sharing your classroom. You are appreciated and I enjoyed grade one.
24-36!!!! Wow
Yay AC finally!!!!!!!
Where in the world did you get that dress? I love it!!!
Love the vinyl sit spots. Do you mind telling me where they are from? 😍
Super cute and organized classroom, im a night shift school custodian, this is so organized compared to what ive seen at work lol
Thank you for your hard work, Jenni. It is GREATLY appreciated. I work at a community college and am so thankful and appreciative of our custodians.😊❤
@@sunshine9122 aw thanks girl☺️
Wow! 15 is a dream; I have 25 firsties in Ohio and can up to 27. They are a super sweet group though 💗
I love your mask! I just subbed! I love your channel!

ahh girl what mascara do you use?!
Where do u find your TH-cam music for the background music
Yeeees...shoe companies, if you want to really put your designs to the test, get teachers to wear them for a day.
Need to invest in some teacher-approved shoes for sure!
What resources do you use for reading centers? Any from TPT?
Love this video so much 💗💗
Air-conditioning is so exciting! I taught for 29 years without it-- only had it for the last eight years, but it was glorious 🤣🤣🤣
I haven’t turned it down or off once - life changing! 😂
@@puttingthemfirst
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy!
Do you have a video about reading centers?

Can you tell me what the 15 acts of kindness poster is all about? Thx!!
On the free choice time you can pull the kids that didn’t learn procedures to learn them then really quick
They were able to learn them “in the moment” by following the strong example of my day 1 kiddos! 👍🏼
Hola, que tal?, como van?, Los mejores y más cordiales Saludos desde puente piedra, lima, Perú, ojalá que puedas venir en algún momento a mi país y que disfrutes mucho de todo por aquí, con la familia y los amigos, felicidades por tus vídeos..
Do you have structured play in first grade? i.e. play activities in different centres.
Technically, no it is not a part of our schedule. However, we have a “brain break” that can be used at teacher discretion (snack time, outdoor mask break, etc.) that I have been using for free play centers. It has been working very well for us!
@@puttingthemfirst I teach in the UK and taught primary for years and now teach adults. I tended to do a specific time for play in the mornings, based on a theme etc so it was mostly structured rather than free play. It's always interesting to see the differences between different education systems. We don't tend to have specialist teachers for pe or art etc, sometimes some schools have music teachers,so kids with u most of the day.
Love watching your videos, love your new sound wall. Will be interesting to see how that goes for you. So excited to hear that u got your ac! So much easier teaching when it's not roasting. Have a good year!
August 23?!?!? What school district in MA starts that early? I teach in MA and we started on August 31.
Is there anyway you can link your mask?
Hi! It came in this 3-pack: www.lillypulitzer.com/adult-face-mask---3-pack/008243.html?dwvar_008243_color=9992E4
I bet administration said we need to keep her. Order AC😂. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💙💙💙🧡🧡💜💜💜🤍🤍🤍
LOL well they definitely don’t need to worry about losing me, but the AC is a wonderful perk. 😂

Wow when I was in school we couldn't wear spaghetti straps or where shorts an skirts above or knees I pray 4 change
Are you teaching CRT???
Four. Hours. Straight. 😅 We’re only allowed to have three periods in a row before a break is required. Thank God.
It was a LOOOOONG afternoon, and it only felt longer as the year went on. Will not miss that schedule! Although I’m pretty certain it has been changed for the next year.
Are you allowed to wear spaghetti straps?
Fair question. Yes, we are! Wouldn’t wear anything that wasn’t permitted in our staff handbook - I’m a rule follower to my core. 😊

Do you have a boyfriend
Nope just a husband 😊
I would have started on the curriculum on the first day of school. I feel like it would be a waste of a school day otherwise.
I respectfully disagree. It is a widely recommended practice to spend time in the beginning of the year establishing procedures and creating a respectful, warm classroom community so that efficient learning is possible for the remainder of the academic year. That is not time “wasted”. 😊
