I got teary listening to you talk about your new principal and teachers. I’m so excited for you! Your enthusiasm is contagious and making me excited to start back to school. After 18 years, I have needed some motivation.
Fantastic video! Your new Principal sounds great and getting along with your principal is 99% less stress. She sounds an emotionally intelligent person, which is fantastic. Billy’s birthday trip sounds so much fun and you spent lots of time planning it ❤ Loved the teacher bag review. I wear a rucksack . It goes everywhere I go! Sometimes I want a nice, light colourful bag. I’ve never been a ‘handbag’ person ☹️
Wow, your productivity is off the charts! You are amazing with all the things you get accomplished. I hope I am like YOU when I grow up. I am so happy for you and this school year. To see your excitement and joy is refreshing. Thank you for sharing because it really inspires me.
I’m so excited for you! I miss being in a classroom, but living vicariously through you is so awesome! I hope y’all have (had) fun in LA! I can’t wait to hear about your adventures!
If you haven’t read Fostering Resilient Learners, I highly recommend it. I found it more helpful than Better Than Carrots with restorative practices. I’m an instructional coach, but I just replaced the students with teachers in my mind. It was tremendously helpful.
Way to go Michelle. Even when the teacher's hands are tied by the system, the golden rule still remains that students learn from people and things that they like. Remember that you cannot have school without struggles and in effect certain "behaviors" but if your students love you in the end that alone should be the mark of a successful teacher. - Dwight
Loved your new book bag! Our principal gave us an alligator 🐊 “edugator” adventures for the summer. To take pics. With, love the whale 🐳 idea too! Can’t wait for the recap of the LA trip
I never comment on videos, but i just felt i had to! From elementary school to high school i have watched your videos, and I have always loved your classroom set up sessions! Throughout the years i go through my elementary school’s staff list to see if my old teachers are there and i saw your photo! This was so surreal for me as i have watched your videos for years! I am literally fan girling!!! Excited to both be longhorns!
I am soooooooooooooo happy for u! Just hang on to that happiness as long as u can gurl. When u need to too take it out and smile! Please know your excitement is contagious even to an oldie teacher like me!
Thank you for sharing this journey! I’m currently an online teacher who has kind of lost the love of education, but watching your vlogs have helped regain that. I’m even considering going back to in person teaching next school year! I’m so grateful that you are bringing us along on your journey.
Happiest of Wednesdays to you, Michelle! I enjoyed this update on all the events you've got going on right now. I enjoyed how you touched on ways to keep track of information you have learned from books you've read. I loved listening to the Teaching to the TOP podcast where you and Bridget gave many specifics about that topic. I hope that Billy's 30th birthday celebration was amazing! It looks like you really put a lot of time and effort into it, so I'm sure it was a great surprise for him along the way as he opened the envelopes. I hope you have an amazing, productive week! 💜
Wow, you aren’t even back in the classroom yet and I am already getting ideas from you to implement next year! I hope you and Billy weren’t affected by the Microsoft outages that grounded all of those flights! I can’t wait to hear about your trip and all the food you ate! Have a great week!
I'm SO trying the dill pickle Goldfish....also, I love your student spotlight ideas! Im so glad you're back in the classroom. I've learned a lot from you over the years. Every time I listen to you, I'm inspired to live life better. Thank you for all the hard work you put in to your videos. It's greatly appreciated 🎉❤😊
I love your new bookbag! I'm also team bookbag. How nice of your principal to have a meet and greet with new staff members and to let you know about the whale pics. Just curious, did she choose a whale for any particular reason?
Tip i learned from a YTuber how to keep bananas longer: wrap the top with tissue/aluminium foil. I used tissue & tie with a rubber band. It works! My bananas can now last longer, up to 5days! Usually in tropical weather, only 2-3days. ❤ If i can't consume fast enough, i make pancakes (yummy!) or like you banana cake (yum too!) 😄😋
hey Michelle! love your videos I always seem to learn a lot even though I am not a teacher and don't plan to become one LOL. I noticed something in your TPT profile. In your "about me" section you wrote "from Austin, Texa!" instead of "Austin, Texas!" (forgot the "s"). I thought was funny and I should mention it
I was going to ask who was watching your baby while you're away! I want to take a vacation but don't want to leave our 2 young pups. They're so used to us being home, like yours is!
I love Goldfish too. I have heard so much about candy salads, I want to make Goldfish salad with my favorite flavors. I live so close to the Chesapeake Bay and I thought it would be so easy to find the Old Bay Goldfish here. Not! I have never seen them in Virginia or Maryland, but I finally found them in Orlando.
You are and will always be Mrs. Emerson to me because you are such an amazing teacher, Mrs. Emerson. - Joshua P.s. you are more than welcome to refer yourself to me as Mrs. Emerson, if you'd like as well.

Same entering my 22nd year! Good luck
I do like your positivity in your videos but I can't find mine yet 😂
@@angelarutigliano1371is it me but I can't find the same motivation yet and don't want the school year soon 😢😅
I totally agree.. her excitement is so contagious ❤🎉
You could say your bag is a “pocketful of pockets” 🥁🥁🤭
Michelle.....that bag is the best!!!
Thank you.
A pause a moment as my jaw dropped for the fact that you had never seen When Harry Met Sally. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! It is timeless!!!
Please, we need your “40 before 40 list” 😱 I would love to get inspired to accomplish cool life goals 😊
Fantastic video! Your new Principal sounds great and getting along with your principal is 99% less stress. She sounds an emotionally intelligent person, which is fantastic.

Those bananas would be perfect for “nice” cream or smoothies. Just peel and freeze them. I keep a stash of frozen banana for this reason.😊

Wow! Wonderful video! So excited for you and your teaching and social life events. It’s all good! Thank you for another fantastic video.
Way to go Michelle.

I am loving the vlogs! Also, your pantry is so organized, and I love it!
You can also use ripe bananas as an egg or oil substitute. I use bananas if I’m out of these ingredients.

LOL Bananas Pull each banana apart - wrap the tip (entire stem) in plastic wrap. Keeps the bananas from turning brown as fast.
Belated happy birthday to Billy!
I love the 30 for 30 gift idea! Happy Birthday, Billy 🎂
I loved the video! I can’t wait to hear about your trip for Billy’s birthday!

Great video like always and happy belated birthday Billy!! Hopefully you didn’t get stuck at the airport!
Hi, Michelle! I'm a 2nd grade teacher. Would you do a step by step on specific procedures to teach the first few days of school?
I love your videos but I need to find the same enthusiasm because after 25 years, need to search in myself for the positivity to start the new year 🤣
Thank you for the top about converting Word/PPT documents to be Google friendly!

We shop for bags the exact same way!😂 Big Q: Did you compare them in a table/spreadsheet?!

Did your parents move to Texas also?
Where it says you teach in Austin Texas on your TPT Texas is missing the s. Love your videos!
Did you get a new/different laptop?
Great ideas
Is Better than Carrots or Sticks on Audible?
can you vlog classroom setup?
😊
You are and will always be Mrs. Emerson to me because you are such an amazing teacher, Mrs. Emerson.

P.s. you are more than welcome to refer yourself to me as Mrs. Emerson, if you'd like as well.
Girl. Girl. Switch to Whales 🐳 so much better than Goldfish. And like 44% fewer ingredients. Cheesier. Crunchier. Bigger. Cheaper. Whales.
