Way to go Mariel. "Portable Name Tag Tents" with a side saying "I need help please." "That'll work." - Ruff Ruffman - Dwight

I'm a college prof and I use a version of this!

I use heavy duty card stock for the name placards and do not use a template. When the kids make their own, after I have shown them how to fold the paper into fourths, this gives me the opportunity to see which students can follow directions.

This is so simple yet effective! Definitely saving to use this school year. It also sparked an idea of having some form of mini LED lights that students can turn on at their desk when they need help - similar to call lights on planes for flight attendants. My creative wheels are turning 🙂🙃🙂🙃

A+😂🎉

We have incentives when kids complete iReady Diagnostics with their % growth. Not sure if you do something like that in your school across the grade levels. That’s a fair competition for the chair 😜

I have never heard of Google Keep?? Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for sharing this Clutter video.

Wow! Thanks for your videos! 😊

Interesting teacher filing folder system.

Love this. Can you provide the title or link to the video about the birthday envelopes? Thank you.

Dark Chocolate covered-pretzels and I keep sub plans on my Google docs so I can just cut and paste things onto it. Then I paper clip all of the worksheets with post its on them stating reading, writing, and math. It’s easy to change them because the routines for everything are the same but the specials and the schedule may have changed, so tweaks are minimal. Thanks for your channel!!! ❤

My parents' insurance company started using this numbered system for follow-up on policy changes. The information was written on a small piece of paper with a date on it and filed in the right numbered folder. Then, I would pull those items and check the info to be sure it was done. This kept the file folders off the desk and in the filing cabinet where everyone could find them.

I absolutely love this idea. Thank you 😊

I love your channel! I use a similar system but use a expandable file folder that slides easily in and out of my teacher tote bag. A big box is just too bulky for me and I do bring work home to grade.

Which class gets the most compliments from other staff in the halls

As an experienced teacher who has been subbing for the last few years, I get bored if I feel like I'm babysitting. I love getting to actually teach at least 1 or 2 lessons. The key is to please plan the substantive stuff for parts of the day when I'll have had the chance to review the lesson plans, like after a planning period or a duty-free recess. It's tricky to capture the nuances of multiple lessons that occur first thing in the morning.

I have used chat GPT for sub lessons this year. Works great!

You have such a great, kid-centered classroom, and I can see why your kids like it. Tell us about the space on your board that has a card that says “Ms. D’s errors” … I’ll bet they love that you’re so human! If I weren’t retired, I’d definitely request to steal that practice from you! Also, great idea to buy outdoor carpets at the end of summer! Awesome tour! Have a great year!

I call my Cozy Corner Zen Zone.

You can use % of attendance or the amount of books/pages/minutes read?

Great tour. I have a middle school Extensive Needs classroom for kiddos with autism and additional disabilities. I have flexible seating and we absolutely love it. I call that area "the living room" because it's right in front of the classroom tv. Yesterday, I put on a video. One of my new 6th graders put in a request for popcorn and a soda. It's the living room, not a movie theater! lol Competing for the (very awesome) rocking chair, AR points is a great way. Our site uses iReady, so to include the Extensive Needs classrooms, we do everything by ratio (I have 9 students, the other homerooms have 25). So, classes where the students complete a given amount of iReady, regardless of academic level, can compete fairly. My kids have won different competitions, which is amazing! Thanks for another fun video! I've sent your videos to several of the teachers I've mentored over the years for tips and tricks. Always amazing! -Terri

Trying to figure out how to adapt this to a high school trimester schedule, where I teach the same class with different kids in different trimesters.

Brilliant system! I could almost come out of retirement! :))

This will be my third year using the 43 file system and I have loved it!

Love the tape on the spines of workbooks! Our phonics program has two workbooks, one as a reference/practice and one for assessments, and they are almost the same color and design......idk why an education company would do that to us.....but the colored tape idea will be a game changer!

I always tell students to use their resources!

Do you have any suggestions for taking notes on student work during whole group work time?

Question: Where do you keep the sticky notes before they make it to the student file? How do you ensure that they don't get lost/damaged/ destroyed before they make it to the student file?

This sounds great. I have a question. If all of a student's pencils are dull before the end of the week, is there a way for them to refresh their pencils? Or do they come to you (in the middle of a lesson interrupting instruction) to ask you for more pencils? I'm trying to problem solve before I try this out/ also I really don't want to be responsible for sharpening pencils.

I am only 45 seconds into this video and I had to stop and comment. This list already looks great and practical. As teacher who's been teaching 10 years, I can already tell this is a good list. Thank you for this video. No time is wasted. One hundred percent practical and you can use it today. Thank you for taking the time to make this.

This is amazing! Ty so much. Centers have been such a mystery and something many teachers don't talk about very clearly. Amazing

I just found your channel and have been watching it all morning. It started with "No more piles with my PORTABLE GRADING STATION!" and "A Better File System for Teachers". You are awesome! You should have more subscribers. I've used the same One Stop Teacher Planner for years. I feel so cool and in the know now. Thank you for your great videos,

Did you over lap the electrical tape so that a bit was over the white board material on the table or just line it up to the edge?

Could you share your star student circles/poster template? Good idea for a quick pick each day!

Omg ladies thank you so much. I teach Chess, K-6, and have been reckoning my brain trying to figure out some things. After watching y’all I can clearly focus on my ideas now for my CIE classes.

I've never heard of Google keep. I just started using Google tasks for pretty much the same thing though. It has really been helpful with keeping organized.

I hate the popular teacher drawers, too smh 🙄 I was influenced to make such a flimsy purchase

Oh! Great to know that plastic tablecloths DO work for bulletin boards... JUST bought some from the Target party section today, & JUST now seeing your video 😅

Great video. I've had the same problem and wanted an alternative and wasn't finding anything on Amazon. Thanks for Frankensteining this for me. "It's Alive!"

Can you use this paper on a small blackboard? I would love more wwhiteboard room and this seems great!!! Thank you. Allicia from CT

Canva is free for teachers??? How can I sign up for that?

Love it!

Now, instead of kids needing a whiteboard to bring to the table they can just bring themselves because the table IS the whiteboard. Way to go.

I love this!

The activity of cutting the problems is just like Scoot. I never thought of making it myself. Cool idea.

This was very informative. Thank you. This coming year. I will be teaching Math for the first time in 3 years. The last time I did, I got an idea from a teacher on RUclips (I don't remember who it was.). She used the acronym M.A.T.H. M-Meet with the teacher A- At your seat T- Technology H-Hands on activities I just need to create the schedule for it. I don't know where my students are, so I found an end of the year assessment from their previous grade(1st) to see the strengths and weaknesses at a glance and work to fill those gaps as I teach them 2nd grade standards. My old district had a curriculum that had an assessment like that built in, except they used the end of the year of the current grade. Thanks again.
