Bailey, don’t be nervous about support staff being in there! You have to stay consistent with your students! Teach and interact with the students as you would if the support staff wasn’t there! You got this!!
bailey you should do that! But don’t do it all the time or at least make sure it’s still bright because some kids prefer lots of lights and some kids get headaches from being in that weird dark but bright setting at the same time.
Have a great first week! Just love them up. Everything else will fall into place. This will be my 19th year teaching. Every teacher is a first-year teacher this year. Also, if you use a pin and poke a hole in the bubble, it shouldn't come back. Hope that helps.
I have been teaching for 4 years and trust me it gets easier but there are always time of feeling overwhelmed! You have such a great attitude! My best advice is do what you can. Veteran teachers are always doing a lot, BUT do what you can do. Then add on when you are ready. I learned this half way through my first year and was a lot better.
I actually am support staff (working to become a teacher) and we get just as nervous being in a new teachers room just because we don’t know their classroom operations or procedures yet either. Don’t worry, we’re usually excited to learn and observe all teachers and their different strategies, so teach as you would if we weren’t there! Love your videos by the way and your classroom is ADORABLE 💕💕
Bailey, here's a trick I learned using my Cricut. When I get air bubbles with my vinyl, I take a needle/pin poke the bubbles then I use a squeegee to smooth the vinyl. Good luck and have fun with your 1st year.
A tip from my cooperating teacher back in the day, I teach middle school now, but using highlighter to write an ‘m’ on your master documents. The yellow highlighter will not copy through! So cool! I need to film a whole #FirstYearTeacherAdvice video series on my channel with these types of tips lol
Last year was my first year teaching and I was just as overwhelmed!!! Teachers in my district go back tomorrow and I’m fully planning to feel just as anxious and overwhelmed this year too. Take some time for yourself to relax this weekend 💕
For the attendance magnets I would have each student move their own... Just with COVID, you should try to limit as many students touching other things as you can! Your room is amazing.
I'm a 3rd year teacher, but I'm loving watching your vlogs. We can all still learn so much from each other! I love the "Save for Next Year" binder. My school uses Google Classroom and Drive, but there's SO many things that end up in the Drive, things can get lost. I definitely am going to make a binder to keep track of my most important stuff for next year. Thanks for sharing!
Super cute video! Stay calm, things are going to fall into place - it's not going to be easy but it WILL be worth it! PS. Coming from a 6-year Support Staff Student Assistant - don't be nervous about the assistants coming in, we are mostly worried that we're not living up to your standards. We focus on the kids - we LOVE when the teachers feels like they can be themselves around us! I've become such great friends with the teachers I supported!
Don’t worry about support staff judging you. I was the school librarian, as part of the support staff we are there to help. Besides we were are beginning teachers once upon a time ourselves
I love the colors you used in your room!! Do you have a video sharing where you purchased your decor? This would look adorable in our home school room!
Ur classroom looks soo beautiful wow 🤩 like a a modern classroom u snapped girl great job , also u should do get ready with me videos u look so cute in all ur outfits and a day in your life I totally think uld get a lot more content bc these videos of school it’s self are great 😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️more videos please loved them
My high school has classes and has certain assemblies about capturing kids hearts and i’m in the classes and it’s like a leadership class. And we get to go to different events and help others, and i’m a christian so like i eventually want to go to different conferences around the U.S and share the word & that’s like a life goal of mine honestly
I’m going to start teaching next fall and I am wanting to start saving up and getting things for my classroom. How much $$ would you say I need to save up when talking about decorations and school supplies with being a first year teacher and what are some things you suggest I should start to getting now?? Also I hope your first day went well❤️!
Definitely start collecting books now! You’ll never have enough of those! I can’t really pinpoint an exact number but I would say just get things here and there starting now so it’s not too much at once!
Bailey, don’t be nervous about support staff being in there! You have to stay consistent with your students! Teach and interact with the students as you would if the support staff wasn’t there! You got this!!
Thank you! It’s actually not as bad as I thought! I barely even remember they are there sometimes! 🥰❤️
I would be so nervous. You are handling everything so well, Bailey. You are an awesome teacher. Your students are so lucky to have you. 💕😊
Thank you
You should get string lights!! And then sometimes during work time you can turn off the main one for a more calm vibe
Yes! I want to get some more!
bailey you should do that! But don’t do it all the time or at least make sure it’s still bright because some kids prefer lots of lights and some kids get headaches from being in that weird dark but bright setting at the same time.

its so cool of you documenting this whole process. in later years you'll look back on this like "heck yeah i did that" ❤

I’m a first year teacher too and I completely feel your pain. I think overwhelmed is a understatement for me.
Hang in there, Cierra! It will get better!! Just remember your WHY!!!

girl....your room😍 literally can’t wait to decorate my classroom in 2 years! 💕
Thank you!! So exciting!

Maybe have a box of fidget toys for kids with anxiety or have trouble focusing.

I love how you set up the desks Bailey! You’re going to do well this school year! Good luck 🍀
Hey! Im a first year first grade teacher and we start on Monday! (In the north schools start later). I love the video!!
So exciting! Thank you!
You've got this, Bailey! I pray that everything goes well for you and your school this year!!
I really like what you did with the extra desks! Great idea to keep the separation!

You can poke a hole with a thumb tack in the sign that has your name on it to get rid of the bubbles!
Thank you!

What font do you use on google docs for your “ways to get home?”
32:08 is me when my mentor teacher asks me to make copies for her😅
Bailey were did you get your lanyard from its so pretty
Modern made company
This would be my dream classroom
I wore that dress today!!!!!!
Why couldn’t you be my teacher mine are all old😭.
That dress is a great color for you
Hey just curious, what is support staff? I’ve never heard of it where I’m from
We have instructional aides that will come in and just assist as needed with students! We also have esol teachers that come in help my ELL students!
bailey that totally makes sense 🙄 sometimes my brain likes to take the day off 😂
Where do you place your mini fridge?
On the counter by my desk!
I’m a teacher I would love if you did a classroom favorite video
aa remember when u were an unemployed college graduate lmaooo ♥️♥️♥️
Embrace the support staff! I’m losing both of my teaching assistants, they’re making them janitors while we’re teaching virtually :(((
It’s actually not as bad as I thought it would be!!!
Yes, I was given the option of cleaning to make up my no in person school day on Wednesdays.
Good stuff! Do you wear a mask while working out?
At my gym we only have to wear them if we aren’t using a piece of equipment!
How a Typical teacher would feel upon a new school year especially this year. Be like 1:40
girl where are your earrings from??? I am also a first year teacher in Florida!!!!!
I mostly get mine from boutiques, target, shein, and Etsy stores!
I fs can’t get through a day without having coke 😁
yay another #teachertuber here!
Yes I love your veidos
Your so pretty
I live in Florida
From where did you find the dotted boarders please? X
Target!
You are so pretty
Were in Florida??
hi Bailey! what's the dojo store?
The students get dojo dollars throughout the week for good behavior and on fridays they get to spend it in the dojo store!
What school do you work at
It’s so hard to hear you sometimes 😅
3rd grade life 17 students..... middle school life 40 students!!!!!
I could not even imagine 🤯
Class dojo :o
b aily do you have to wear a mask ????????????????
Ughhh why do all the nice teachers teach in Florida 😿
I really wanna be a teacher but I also wanna be a doctor lol
Ooooo good luck with whatever you choose!❤️
Like you new video today and look really beautiful today
