    The First Day Jitters are real. Twenty-Three years into this career and I still can't sleep the night before the first day AND I am fast talking and walking in circles for the hour or so before kids and families show up the first day. You are in good company.

    you should have a table captain. in each of four desks, you should have someone whose in charge of the caddy, like putting the markers back in the box or making sure it’s stocked. if you decide to keep them at the front of the room, you could have that “captain” or “leader” grab it and return it every day. they can also collect the papers from the group and hand them in so you don’t have to keep constantly keep around collecting work. each week, the leader/caption changes.

      Yes. I love my table captains. They are everything.

      I loved being a captian of any kind in elementary it made me feel special. I think that's a great idea actually. I remember i used to be the table captian and collected all the papers and i thought i was SO cool lol it was an easy job for a kid like me who had anxiety while also teaching me responsibility and getting me up and out of my chair bc i was GLUED to that seat in school.

    I'm going to be a new 3rd grade teacher this fall, and I just want to scream THANK YOU for making this video. Honestly, it has been very helpful for me to see how a first day is structured by another teacher, some fun activities that you can do, and how to go about introducing those procedures kids desperately need. This has been awesome! Looking forward to checking out more of your videos to prep for the coming fall!

  • @smOVERCOMINGITALL
    @smOVERCOMINGITALL 6 лет назад +39

    Omg i remembered thay friend scavanger hunt game and i hated it as a kid lolol i had a ton of social anxiety and no friends so i would be like standing in one spot in the room having a internal panic attack hoping others would come up to me so i wouldn't have to walk up to anyone 😂😂 i know its supposed to get you up and around the room to get to know everyone, but let me tell you it caused me stress every year. Even in college i hate that the profs make you stand up and like say your name, your major and 1 interesting thing about yourself im like please no. 😂😂 im glad your first day went well! Cant wait for more vlogs!

  • @shelbyloryn9045
    @shelbyloryn9045 2 года назад +3

    Watching your videos put some great ideas in my head. This will be my 1st year teaching 3rd grade and I feel absolutely terrified but excited for this journey. As you said I feel like I have no idea what I'm going to do, or I might be awful!!!!! Everything I know will come together. Wish me luck.🤞 Instead of me going to school to be a teacher I'm going back to school and taking classes while teaching to do my teaching licensure, so I feel like I'm going in this with no teaching education but learning as I go, Which is why I feel less confident. With that being said I have had experience being an educational assistant and long term sub but never had the confidence of me being the head teacher. All my coworkers and boss saw potential and are 100% supportive, I know I can do this.

    Hello! :) I'm a new subscriber.. I love Teachers Pay Teachers -- I've been homeschooling my children for 5 years and we're getting ready to start the 6th year. :) I used TPT so much when I first got started and still love to look through the site. When I was growing up, I always wanted to become a teacher and then I thought I changed my mind when I had children of my own. However, after watching you vlogs -- it makes me want to be a teacher all over again. I realize I'm teaching my children but it's not the same as having a classroom full of children! :)

  • @patriciaburke2401
    @patriciaburke2401 6 лет назад

    So glad I found your channel! I’m a retired elementary school teacher. I don’t miss the meetings,etc. However, I do miss the children. I spent nine years in third grade and enjoyed every minute! I love your enthusiasm and, for the record, after 20 years, I always became a bit nervous on the first day of school! Best wishes for a great year!

  • @tracy_in_primary
    @tracy_in_primary 6 лет назад +1

    I have a double-lesson release on Thursday after lunch, so I don't dismiss my kids that day. They have Art so they art teacher (who also teaches my class on Wednesday's) dismisses. You know what? Double release is the best version of awesome! I do all my planning for the week and begin my copying and printing. On Friday morning I have a single release and I try to get my printing finished up. And then that's it - no release on Monday or Tuesday so I teach aaaaalllll day, plus yard duties. I'm dead by Tuesday night!
