Love the way your room is coming together!! If you don’t want to see what’s underneath the black table add fabric with Velcro on three side of the table or even hot glue!!

Very great video. Love your passion and enthusiasm. I am a principal at a high school and yea I can tell that I have the least number of teachers comparing to previous years. Wish I can have some teachers like you in my school; maybe come and spend a vacation here on an island in Micronesia. I hope someone can read this and at least to think about it. I am recruiting for teachers now; Science, Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, Mechanic, Carpentry, Agriculture, Food & Nutrition, Sewing, Child Development.

Get another sheer panel to go with the one you have and scrunch it together more and you won’t have to worry about putting anything behind it.

for those plastic containers that you don’t know what to do, you could treat it like a caddy and fill it with supplies at the tables, or if there’s any group work you could put them out then with the supplies they would need

I love your classroom! It’s so much bigger than last year’s room. That’s awesome. For the curtain that blocks the storage room, maybe you can fold it in half and put a quick hem so it stays. The curtain won’t be that sheet anymore

Your room is amazing!

I love your setup videos! I’m a middle school math teacher.. Wishing you a great school year 😆

Love your setup videos

not sure if you already do this but if you cover the entire surface of chalkboard paint with chalk and wipe it away it will be easier to clean in the future.

Hi Jess! Great vlog, it was nice to see your classroom set up videos pop up on my notifications. Just some ideas - what if you take the placemat thats on the bottom shelf of white tall shelving unit and hot glue ut or tape it to that spot on thr back of your standing desk. Also the black table that's in the middle of your 2 black shelving units - if you're not sure what to use it for it can be a Science Store - and you can place any supplies each table of students will need for hands on experiments or any materials...the bins youre not sure if you want to keep can be used for ELA units or for ELA activities like book "tastings" or items for group projects, they can also be used as seasonal bins to store seasonal decor. Just wanted to share. Take care and thanks for sharing your process with us. P.S The plant looks really nice around the computer unit thhata on the floor.

Could you please explain what First Chapter Friday is. Also what are some Novels you do? Did the school supply the class set or did you purchase them? Looking to get some for my classroom. Thank you. Alicia from CT

How do you do your First Chapter Friday? Do you have a display?

Did she say what she does with the lucky ducks?
