I loved this so much! I got so many tingles in school without knowing what they were. If you do another classroom lesson roleplay like this, one of my biggest real life triggers is listening to the footsteps of teachers slowly pacing around the room looking over our shoulders. At the end of a roleplay where you say to work quietly, walking around a mic slowly in heels pausing occasionally would bring that back for me. Thanks for all you do and I’ll be coming back to this one a lot!
I can see why generally, schools these days don't bother teaching English grammar in this way. But understanding English grammar really helps when you learn other languages, because it's hard to understand how other languages work without knowing how your own language works.
This takes me back, schools in the UK were still using chalkboards into the 1990s when I was a student. You do not forget the smell of that chalk! Love the creativity you put into your videos, it's fun seeing what you'll post next. Thanks and take care :)
Here in Czechia we were using them into the 2000s. 😅 No idea if they're still there... the physics classroom had a special blackboard that was two blackboards on top of each other with a pulley system for extra blackboard space, it would be rather a shame if they got rid of that!
Oh my goodness, this takes me back!!! So nostalgic! ❤ Edit: Anyone else remember the chalk pens? For anyone that doesn't, they were short pen-shaped device (for lack of a better word atm) that the teacher would slide whole chalk pieces into. I'm not sure quite why, but I always felt like I was special or 'had made it' (made what, Idk) if I was chosen to write on the board and use the chalk holder... Lol
Yes! I had forgotten about those! They were great, and kept your fingers clean. Fancy! It's funny, the simple things that made us feel special in school... a special chair, or getting to hand out papers, or taking a message to the office! Being "the chosen one"! 😅❤
Yes!! I taught English in public schools 1987-1993 before I decided to become a college professor. And you bet I had one of those chalk holders. I LOVED writing on the board during my entire career teaching high school and college. The feel and the sound. 🫠
Dissecting sentences!!!! Oh my - the memories!! I was probably doing exactly this in 1966. And I remembered a lot of it. Thanks for bringing back childhood memories!
Thank you for sharing this!! I was in the sixth grade in 1986 and our English teacher taught us to diagram sentences. Chalk boards were still being used and thi brought back memories I forgot about. We had a very special teacher as well.💕💕
Such a wonderful chalkboard video!!! Your slow erasing, the way you write, your wonderful voice-thank you so much for this jewel!!! I’ve imagined this video in my head for so long-perfection! ❤👩🏫🙌🏻🎉🩷
Dear Sherri, this is so special to me. As a retired English teacher that used to be covered in chalk dust, I can relate! I truly miss those days (and had no idea my chalkboard was an ASMR experience)! I wish grammar was still taught that way, too. Thank you! ❤
First off …LOVE all your work /such a treat ! Especially for people “of a certain age” who ENJOY the memories…BUT as an avid reader & great student, diagramming sentences was always a “bugaboo “ just the word predicate , semicolon etc etc etc just give me shivers ! BUT I’m noticing sentences written today seem to go , on ,& on, written only with commas !
@kimrobinson6280 I LOVED teaching so much. I miss it. ☺️☺️☺️ @edwardrmeow3344 You wouldn't have been the first to fall asleep in one of my classes. 😂😂😂😂
I've lurked on this channel for so long but I finally feel brave enough to leave a comment lol you're by far my favorite ASMR artist, the tingles are great ofc but the vibes of your videos in particular are so relaxing. Thank you for all your hard work in contributing to this medium.
Also, I remember feeling particularly special if I was elected to wash the blackboard with water and a rag, take the erasers outside and clap them together and against the brick wall or when I'd get picked to spray the desktops with that cleanser that only people my age or older would recognize because it had a very distinct smell to it. But whatever it was, it removed pencil and pen marks on the desktops.
These chalk sounds are bringing me back! 😌💕 I also used to LOVE diagramming sentences in 8th grade. I don't think it was part of the standard curriculum, but we had a special elective each quarter based on each core subject and my English teacher chose to teach sentence diagramming. It was always so fun for me. 😆 Thank you for this lovely video! 💖
I teach English to students who speak another language at home (formerly called ESL). We were having a similar grammar lesson today! Except no chalkboards anymore. I actually wrote on paper and the camera projected it on the big screen 😁 but I sure do remember those chalkboard days! 26+ years now.
Our teachers had a wooden board eraser with sort of felt wadding on one side, they were heavy when an irritated teacher would throw it towards the head or body of whoever was being most disruptive. Someone would be chosen to take it outside and bang it with a ruler to remove the chalk dust. England 70's.
Seeing the thumbnail - I thought my grammar teacher was the only one who used the “anywhere a squirrel can go”. I can’t seem to explain grammar to my peers who didn’t properly learn it as children. I’ll send them this video 😎
Goodness. I loved dissecting sentences in Czech. But this diagram seems like such a complicated, non-intuitive way to do it! We had a more linear way. It took up more space, but it was way easier to make sense of! 😮 😅 P.S. The shape was more like a family tree - it took me a moment to think of a good explanation, but that's exactly it. - Not that you're not doing a good job explaining it, it just took me aback quite a bit because the basic diagram isn't what I'm used to, and the method seems so... crowded!
I am very curious!! I’m going to have to look up Czech diagramming. Mine may have looked crowded because i was writing in a small space and cramming everything in. Still, I’d love to see an entirely different logic.
@@MidModMeridianASMR Big part of the difference is definitely that we don't use the "prepositional clauses" logic! We do have them, of course, but a lot of what English does with prepositions, Czech does in some other manner (adverbs, adjectives...), so it's not the main focus of the analysis.
I just looked it up online. 😮😮😮 Not surprised, though, that Czech and English use an entirely different structural logic. I’ve been studying German for over ten years, and the fact that some things are just not translatable is fascinating to me.
i absolutely LOVE this. as someone raised in brazil, chalkboards were very much still in use back in the late 2000s (when i was a kid). very nostalgic! 🩷
Here's an assignment for all of you "older" people - the next time you interact with a clerk, waiter etc. that is under 40 years old, watch how they hold their pen. You'll be quite amused.
Sorry!!! Couple other peeps said the same thing. I can promise you, though, I would never ever do that to you. If it did happen, 1) I’d edit it out, but 2) only after I stopped writhing in the floor trying to get the sound out of my ears. 😂😬
Nope nope nope!! At the beginning I was stressed waiting for her nails to accidentally fall from the eraser to the chalkboard 😂 ugghhhh. After that trauma it is relaxing.
@@MidModMeridianASMR I know but it's my issue. Most people say " it's like nails on a chalkboard " but I don't think they actually know!??😉 it is such a trauma for me. Anyway I just had to fast forward a bit, sorry your videos are excellent but just the beginning of this one. I promise I watch all the way through..might take me a few days because I fall dead asleep, but I do watch all the way through. 😁
I don't think I got it until 7th or 8th as well, but I set the video in elementary school because I wanted to be able to tell Billy to get back in his seat. 😂
@@MidModMeridianASMR😊hi i’m happy okay, I’m not doing very well at the moment. I’m having problems with my head 😊 but I’m happy The 7th of October I am moving house 🏡 yay we are swapping with someone I will not be in London, no more yay 😊
Finally, a classroom where falling asleep is encouraged 🥰
Correct!! Your dream come true! 😂

Right! And if you don't understand English grammar, studying another language will suddenly force you to understand English grammar. 😂
Yes my Latin lecturer used to make sure we understood the English grammar before he taught us the Latin
Hopefully we all behave in this thread or we’ll get 200 lines each 😂 😇
Lines !
Admit who used to write I, next line I, next line I, must not, must not, and so on...
@lauren6889 I absolutely did that. Then you could do it without thinking. Hahahaaa😂
Your chalk box is just precious.
I love it. And the chalks rolling around inside. ☺️☺️
Gosh it can't be any more perfect than this!! Classroom roleplays with real chalkboards are the absolute best ♥
I agree!!

I bought chalk holders last week!

I remember those! One of my teachers forgot to advance the chalk once and the device scraped on the board 😬
Yes!! I taught English in public schools 1987-1993 before I decided to become a college professor. And you bet I had one of those chalk holders. I LOVED writing on the board during my entire career teaching high school and college. The feel and the sound. 🫠

I love this! The nostalgia is on overdrive! ❤
This is one of my all-time favorites. Love teacher asmr (and there isn’t nearly enough)!
You're right!! We need to start encouraging other ASMRtists to do it!!
Already know it’s going to be an amazing video.
Thank you for all you do Sherri! 😊❤️
You are so welcome! 💚💚💚
This brings up a lot of memories of good Ole school days. 😁📚✏️

Hey Kimi!! You are very welcome. It has been on my list for a long time. Next up . . . algebra? 😂
I used to be a champ at diagraming! Such nostalgia!
Good for you!! One of my favorite things to do. I was and still am such a word nerd. 😂
Diagramming sentences wasn’t taught in school when I was young, but it doesn’t matter for this super relaxing video! Well done 👏👏👏
Ha!! Thank you! I am a nerd when it comes to diagramming sentences. Always was.

I love hearing from teachers!! 👩🏫💚
I love the sound of chalk on the chalkboard. My very first experience of ASMR was in elementary school before i knew what it was.
Ahh yes!! And as a retired teacher and professor, I can also attest to how extremely satisfying it is to WRITE on the board. ☺️☺️☺️
Lovely, Thank you Sherri
How soothing as the eraser and the chalk, but especially handwriting video was so soothing learning
I'm super glad you enjoyed it! 💚💚💚
Oh my goodness your videos are so wonderful. I'm in love with the aesthetic. 💙
Thank you so much!!
You know the video is good when you have to keep watching it over again, because you keep falling asleep!❤
Of course!! Finally you have PERMISSION to fall asleep during a boring grammar lesson!!! 😂😂😂

You have the perfect gentle writing and soft talking for this class roleplays ♥ I hope you do many more in the future. So tingly 😴🤩
Thank you!! I will. 💚💚
you would have been the best teacher/ professor Sherri 😍😍
I think I saw that Sherri is actually a retired literature professor! I would have fallen asleep during every lecture 😂❤
@kimrobinson6280 I LOVED teaching so much. I miss it. ☺️☺️☺️
@edwardrmeow3344 You wouldn't have been the first to fall asleep in one of my classes. 😂😂😂😂
Reminds me of childhood at Catholic elementary school, learning the letters with the three little lines on the notebook.

I used to love diagramming sentences ❤
Me, too, girl-me, too.
I just got out of the hospital and this is a wonderful thing to come home to. Thank you ❤
Oh, I hope you are recovering well, my dear! 🥰🥰
@@MidModMeridianASMR I am, thank you! ❤
Ohh my does this bring back memories. 8th grad grammar was intense - Mrs Moritz did not mess around.

My aunts used to talk about diagramming sentences when they were in school, and now I know what they were talking about! 😅
😂
I just hope there's no homework.
😂
Your homework is to fall asleep!
Yesssssss! I love it..
as an aspiring teacher I love these types of vids!
That's great!!! Are you training yet? In what discipline?
*starts erasing the board*
*immediately starts smelling the chalk*
Of course!
I’m transported back to grade school. I had a teacher who presented her lessons in a similar manner.
I hope those are good memories!! 😂🌺
It was a special day if the teacher used the special colored chalk.
Oh yes!!!!
Please do another diagramming sentences video. I've actually used diagramming to battle my anxiety and panic since I was a kid.
I was taught… “The bedbug jumps ----- the bed”. 😂 Still use this trick today 😊
Ha!!! That’s funny. More memorable than a squirrel for sure. 😂
Great channel 👏 thanks 😊👍✨️💖✨️💋
This put me to sleep, just like English class did 20 years ago.
Except this time it was beneficial! Haha
So funny. English classes were MADE for ASMR, right!
Seeing the thumbnail - I thought my grammar teacher was the only one who used the “anywhere a squirrel can go”. I can’t seem to explain grammar to my peers who didn’t properly learn it as children. I’ll send them this video 😎
