It cracks me up that you enter your room, put the camera down and then film yourself walking in. Every time I see it, I laugh. Girl, your dedication to aesthetics is next level.
Is THAT really what she's doing?! I haven't tuned in for a few weeks, and so I thought I had missed some new camera set up in the classroom at all times... LOL that wouldn't make any sense. Thanks for commenting about that. I thought I was the only one that thought that was funny!
I thought I was the only one who realised that 😂
I love when she does that. Lol
I mean, it's a good thing to have, but I wouldn't call that "next level." It seems basic enough: you want to give people an idea of what your day is like, so walking in the classroom might be something you would want to capture. If you're just one person, your method for capturing this is different than if someone was filming you, but that's to be expected. It's still a nice touch though, and something others might forget or not bother to include, it just doesn't strike me as particularly inventive.
As a teacher, every second counts. A second lost is a second that you could've been prepping, planning, marking, etc. What she's doing is taking 1-5 minutes each day. Sure, it looks great, but it's not needed. We know she's walking into the room with tons of stuff. It's a teacher's life, after all. For me, it's next level simply because she doesn't have to do it and does it just the same... really, for her viewers who aren't teachers. And I'm appreciative of her desire to go above and beyond.
Michelle, I seriously have no idea how you train for a marathon, make time for Billy, teach, go to extra activities, and create TPT and make TH-cam videos. It seriously bafffles me. I would love to be a part of the TH-cam community (I'm in the teaching profession too!), but it just seems so daunting! I love your content. Your TPT interview prep and videos are seriously the best. You are so good at what you do and just know your viewers are loving your transparency and all the time you devote to making such awesome content available for teachers. Much love from Missouri!
Taylor Edwards, IK I'm late hut if you made teaching vlogs, I would totally watch!!
You should do a tutorial on making those sheets. They always look nice and I love that you can add what you need.
In my classroom, I have 31 students that I test with F/P with no subdays/no time in the day. After my reading workshop lesson, while students are reading independently is when I test. I have only 6 left......started beginning of January! Love your vlogs and you as a person. You have given this 30-year teacher, more motivation!
Rina Walter I’m in the same boat as you! Those F/P are a time sucker.
Hey, for the teacher aides if you are giving them something (as what you did with the survival kits) you could give them lemonade and on a tag say “thanks for being a great ‘aide”! ❤️ u and your creativity
Michelle, thank you so much for your channel. I I have been a subscriber since your first video. I recently received the honor of Teacher of the Year at my school and I believe I have you to thank. You are a creative, positive force in my teaching life. Your ideas and attitude are inspiring and have helped me enjoy my job and my students so much more the past two years. Props to you! Have a wonderful week.
I love the constant ideas she gives us. I am in my 5th year teaching 2nd grade and these videos are life changing!
I LOVE that you give notes. I am a preschool teacher and in the afternoons help our school agers with homework. That would be SO Helpful to have!!
You never cease to amaze me with what you take on! Training for a marathon while teaching a whole new grade level, becoming a girls on the run coach, and playing basketball for your school against the other elementary school. I LOVE your commitment! You're such an inspiration, Michelle!
Your vlogs are incredibly HELPFUL to me. I can't thank you enough. So nice to see your happy face and numerous teaching tips and ideas. Keep up the AMAZING work. You are AWESOME!
Your hot mess desk is what my desk looks like when it’s clean lol
going overtime in math is life.
My students take forever to handwrite, but not type, but I do need them to typing up their final drafts so they can get that practice because they'll typing for AZ Merit
Marissa so true
Not a teacher but I love your channel
Same here
Jj Ice same im 12
Same, student!
Stephanie Ramsey same!
Jj Ice same! I’m in 7th grade.
I absolutely love your videos!!! Your videos continue to inspire me while i work through my teaching degree. Which i am coming up on my halfway point with an associates before i transfer to a four year university! Again thank you so much for being an inspiration and a reminder on why i want to be a teacher!!!!
I love your channel so much! I may only be a kid but I like it.
Lilly sameseeeee
curious about your TA? what are there responsibilities? what is there age range? Is it the same as a para?
Michelle, I can’t tell you how much I admire your dedication. That seems to be a common theme of my comments but truly, it’s so awesome to see you thriving. Sending you positivity for the coming week!
I’m 10and I’ve been watching you for a while and you’re part of the reason I might enjoy teaching one day much love from Iowa ❤️
I love that you post on Sunday’s. I enjoy watching while preparing for the week!
When we have a 2-hour delay it only applies to students. Teachers still have to report by 7:45. Boo! I would love to have a later start time too! I think it would benefit everyone. More sleep is always a good thing. LOL!
You were super productive at school, girl! F&P testing takes forever. I have 16 students to test as well and they each take at least 30 minutes. We have the option of a sub for 1 day each testing period, but I hate to be away from my kids that long so I just grab a few each day during independent work times. If I start early enough it works out!
❤️ and hugs!
lilahtov I completely agree! ❤️
Hey I'm currently pursuing my PhD in physics, but I really wanted to become an elementary school teacher I'm the future, but I don't really have an experience teaching children. Your videos are really helpful in seeing what will be required when I eventually enter the education scene, thanks and keep up the good work!
Love your Teacher Appreciation kit idea. I am my grade level representative, so I think this will be a great gift to give to my team when it is state testing time. Thanks for always sharing your ideas.
I’m a morning person. But a grumpy morning person. Lol. I like waking up early. But I just can’t be bothered to communicate with anyone until at least after 7 or 8. 😂
I’m a 11th grader and I always wondered what it’s like being a teacher......well now I know 😂😂😂
Armani Byrd I’m a fifth grader and wondered the same!
I’m a 10th grader and wondered the same thing 😆
Life as a teacher is grades....stress..... somewhat free time....and helping kids learn..... I’ll pass 😂 but I’m glad we have people who are dedicated to that life 💓
Your dedication is incredible
I’m a 15 year old girl with no intention of being a teacher but you’re SO INTERESTING!! I cant get enough of you
Watching your vlogs while I plan and prep is my new thing. I love them! Thanks! :-)
I miss your vlogs so much! You are such an inspiration to me Michelle!
Your videos make me so excited to go back to school! I took a semester off because I was seriously lacking motivation & I didn't care about what I was learning. (Still finishing my gen eds) & now I'm so excited to go back because I cannot wait to have a classroom of my own one day!
Hello Michelle I have been watching your vids for awhile now and you have no idea how much motivation you have given me to become an educator. I cannot wait to gradute this May and head to college and become a teacher! Thank you so much for all of the hard work you do and how dedicated you are to your students you are truely an inspirational and awesome teacher! 😊😃
I look forward to your blogs so much! Makes my life as a Trainee teacher seem less stressful, so thank you! Keep it up!
Michelle- I would love to know more about your students. Demographics, behavior, and how you manage behavior since you're departmentalized.
You make me so jealous, your life is so busy and you still find time to work out, something I struggle with as a single mom of 1. ( My daughter age 1 always says hi to you when I play your videos)
YAY!! A New vlog! I'm going to get myself some coffee and watch it !!
Haven’t even watched it yet and I’ve liked it. Never a dull video! ❤️
I love the yes/no flowchart-that's a great idea!
It sounds like that girl has Perfect Pitch!! It’s basically when u can hear any note and know what letter it is and sometimes they can tell if it’s sharp or flat! That must be how she plays so well by ear!
I've been here since your very first classroom vlog!! I love you, you seriously inspire me.
Michelle,
I must say. For a 4th grade teacher you explain things in math so much EASIER than my old teachers. I never understood fractions, division etc and I still don’t and I’m in high school honestly I blame the teachers that don’t know how to each it properly. I love watching you’re videos because honestly I’m not sure if I want to be a teacher or I want to go into another career path I was thinking about. You just inspire me so much.
Try mr woo on youtube!!
Hey Michelle, Can you show us your students' notebooks? It sounds like you use interactive notebooks for math. Would love to see how your students stay organized for math. Also, I love that you are typing note pages for them because it's true that copying notes sometimes takes some students SO long that they actually miss important parts of my lesson.
Another question: I would totally buy your note pages for math. It would make my life as a 4th grade teacher TOTALLY easier? Tell us when you might plan to get them up on TPT.

I started cracking up when your lights turned off because it happens to me so much! I always have to dance lol or do some other crazy motion to get them to turn on.
Can you do a tutorial on how you make your daily slides, and how you make your worksheets!!??
We use Google Classroom and I love it! My teacher puts our Think and Review questions from our Studies Weekly and it makes it so easy instead of writing them in our notebooks!
That is so crazy we just learned how to do what you are doing in math and our next unit is the last unit you did
Shared it because you are amazing and just have so much positive energy!
I’m also in MD and we had the same Monday delay. I said those exact words to my partner teacher. If school always started at that time, I’d be so happy and productive! We have to be at work at 7:30 am on regular days
your handwriting is literally perfect!! i always worry that my handwriting is too messy to be a teacher 😂
Lacey Marie me too!
I would love for you to add all the math pages you make to your TPT account for purchase. They always look awesome!
So glad to see you're feeling better!!
Hey I love your videos so much! You really inspire me (I mean really inspire me!)
My sister watches you EVERY DAY and she watches it on so much I kind of wana watch now
She is at some camp now and since it she is not watching now i am
I never thought I would say that.........
I love watching your videos! I’m from England and I’m training to be a primary school teacher at university at the moment. I wish we had classrooms as big as the ones you have!
Also we have Nando’s all over the country here and it’s super popular!
Great video😊! Love watching your vlogs! So inspirational
You really love shopping at target is that’s how you New the cup came from there
Tint the water... you are an awesome teacher
Love your vlog. Very inspiring. You are so well organized in that area I inspire to be more like you. Great job honey!
I’m a kid and I like your channel
I love your Chanel! It motivates me to become a teacher!!
I have spent the last 2 weeks binge watching your videos! I am a primary teacher in very Rural Alaska (130 miles above the arctic circle). I love your videos!
2 quick questions: what program do you use to create your worksheets/letters/cards?
Where do you get your fonts/clip art?!
Yassss just watched you gym blog yesterday!
Could you put those math notes and practice sheets on TPT?
Yes! I’m teaching improper fractions right now and would love those notes! They’re functional and pretty!! 👍
I agree, that would be wonderful.
Yes! I was thinking the same thing!
Yes im teaching about finding which fraction is bigger or smaller that would be great
Nelda M Taylor same
Hi!! I love your videos! Could you make a video of how you create the notes sheets?
I spent so long being a year ahead and math doing algebra and geometry and everything and tailing that that mixed numbers and fractions subtracting is just a distant memory when I took my college math class in high school instead of taking calculus like I really should have when we got two fractions that was the unit I bombed
In Social Studies at my school we are also talking about the War of 1812! By the way I’m in 5th grade and I love you so much!
Another GREAT Video Michelle, Keep up the Awesome videos.
Nandos is soooo popular here in England! I'm excited to hear it's making it's way over to the states. Make sure you try their creamy mash - best mash ever!
I love your videos I watch every video thank you for being a awesome TH-cam person
Ok sooo I miss your vlogssss sooooo much, I’m literally rewatching. Can you make a tutorial on how you make your classroom notes?
I’m a 12 yr old and I ❤️ ur vids for some reason?
Is it crazy that I actually like BAS/ F&P testing?? My kids have grown so much this year already. I’m so proud of them!
I love your channel so much I hope u make it to 100k
I love your videos and i am not a treacher. You are amazing and so fun to watch. I always look forward to more videos from you :)
you should do a fitness/motivation video! Like how you manage to work out/what you do after a busy day of work :)
Love your blogs michelle!!!
I’ve shared your channel to the Teachers in my building ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
How are you always so happy and chill? 😂
I’m a student teacher and I feel like I’m drowning in paperwork 🙈
Nando’s is really popular in the UK but I have the children’s seasoning which is actually bbq sauce (I’m such a wimp)
Love your channel!!!! You are so inspiring!!!!
Meredith Wiederspahn I love your profile picture!!!
I love the layout of your powerpoints, can you share/put on tpt???
Thank you for the motivation!
omg nandos is so good we have it a lot in england - i was surprised to find out that it wasn't really common in america. so tasty though
Do you prefer teaching only math and science, or do you miss teaching the same group of students, all of the subjects?
Hi Michelle! I absolutely love your math notes. Do you have them already in your TpT store? I would so buy them. I am currently tutoring my niece, she’s in fourth grade, and she struggles with math. Your notes would make it easy for her and her parents to remember important math concepts.
As always, I really look forward to the weekends when I can watch your videos. Thank you for taking the time for making them and sharing your teacher life and ideas.
PS: Thank you so much for the reminder on using GIFs on PowerPoints. I completely forgot. I will definitely do that this week in my PowerPoints. ☺️
And super cute idea for the Teacher Survival Kits! 💕
I am in grade ten and I learned how to add mixed fractions last year...
Hey Michelle,
I was wondering where you purchased your lunch bags from. I use the containers that have compartments and have not found a bag that fits them. Your bags look like the perfect size. And yes, please show us how you do your Google slides and worksheets.
Will you be adding the improper fraction/mixed numbers pages on your TPT? Doing review this week with my students and those pages would be amazing!
I love your vids as a student I wish you were my teacher
Nandos is a very common British food chain in the UK, it's somewhat of an institution haha x
Love your channel!!! 😀💖
Love your vlogs! Please put your math notes from this video in your tpt store!
Have you thought about how much you save per week when your not buying coffee everyday. Maybe you can find something you want and buy it for your self after your race. Your inspiring I wish I could be on the ball with fitness
I love your earrings on Monday!! Where did you get them????? Love your channel so much❤️❤️❤️❤️
I use google classroom at my school! It’s pretty good
Anyone else notice the different pants in the beginning? They went from burgundy walking to the car to black walking in the classroom! Lol
❤️ the music in this vid!
I am a morning person, I could wake up at 5:00 and I fall asleep at 10:00
Hi!! I love all your videos, and recommend you to all of my friends in college for teaching! I was wondering if you could make a video explaining how you got so good at design, or maybe discuss it some in a vlog! I am about to begin the education program and I think it would be so beneficial if I could improve my skills at creating fun worksheets and powerpoints like yours, but customize them to what I would need! Are there any online courses you would recommend?
Quite jealous of the cold weather. It’s 106F here
I would LOVE the chance to observe one of your lessons!
It's funny that you had class in Baltimore county we we're closed both Monday and Wednesday
I just realized when I create stuff it looks so similar to your style! I guess great minds think alike haha!
hello! I have been a subscriber for a while! I always loved watching your videos. Recently, i have started teaching, and do you mind giving us an example of how you teach and speak to the children? I assume your tone would be different when you talk to kids vs when you talk to us. Can you film an teaching example? thank you!
