I taught for 32 years and loved everyday of my career. Being able to home school my granddaughter in grade 2 is a dream come true. I still volunteer in a school because the kids always teach me something new overtime I see them. Such a blessing to hear so many parents say that they now appreciate teachers so much more.
Genuinely so cute, this is one of the main reasons I like the Internet. I have one grandparent alive, and seeing other people’s stories about their grandparents or from the grandparents themselves makes me feel so weird. I can’t explain it, it’s like it’s filling a hole in myself.
@@michelledutcher3243 I'm not a mom, but my little sister will knock on the door and ask what I am doing, like "What do you think I'm doing. I'm on the damn toilet, do I need to explain?"
To all you mom’s having to do this quarantine schooling, you got this! God have you everything you need to accomplish teaching your babies! Have a great school year!
I'm realizing I'm crazy... Like more than I was before... I chose tech free.. All me, different grades. I respect the teachers even more than before, which was a ****ton!!!
Who else realized their laughter had turned into sobbing watching this?! Because its sooo true! Here we are mid-March 2021 and the kids have gone back 🙏🙏 GIVE THESE TEACHERS ANYTHING THEY WANT!!! THEY DESERVE IT!!! They truly are such an asset to raising our village!
Here's the thing parents need to remember about teaching their kids, you have to put in your mind that these kids are learning these concepts for the first time. There was a time you didn't know how to add or subtract, or spell long words. You messed up a lot. And you can't expect your kid to know what they are doing. You have to be patient and work with them, even know it's challenging.
Amen! You nailed it! And repetition, repetition, repetition! It may seem annoying or frustrating to some parents going over the same thing so often but that’s part of the learning process. And parents, don’t be scared to take breaks... get up and dance to a fun, educational song!
@@grayciekins Yeah. I've been experiencing this a lot lately. Not myself. I know what I'm doing with my work. But I have a little sister. She is still very young. She hasn't learned how to do a lot of things and my parents laugh at her and expect her to know this stuff. She is a very sensitive child. She cries every time. They really don't understand. It kinda makes me wonder sometimes if they laughed at me while I was learning stuff for the first time too.
Oh totally, the kids are doing great!! I, on the other hand, am not a qualified teacher. Before we bought some workbooks, my husband would come out to the Living room to find me face down on pages of handwritten work.. 3 a.m.... pen in hand... Pretty sure I drooled all over week three Math and week two English. This is just the beginning!!
Everyone isn't cut out to be a teacher. That's why teachers need to respected for the professional skills they have and be paid accordingly. Back in the day, when teachers were largely men, they got respect and paid. The feminization of teaching has been the excuse to lower both. Despicable.
As a teacher, I think that parents did a truly heroic thing here. Although they possess expertiese in their various fields of employment, they were suddenly required to become homeschoolers -- while simultaneously dealing with everything else they were tossed in the fallout from the virus. Somehow, they found within themselves their own ways to make things work during this unprecedented time in our lives. I was constantly amazed and inspired by my students and their families during the last two months of our school year>
@Faith Through Arrows Good question. People can split hairs over definitions all they want, but the way I see it, if you're helping your kids do school from home, you're homeschooling. Parents who were already -- and by choice -- homeschooling might take issue with being lumped in with everyone else, but for two months there, we were all in the same boat.
Trust me when I say that having us ...attempt...to teach makes our kids miss you guys sooooo much! It’s been major last year’s teacher appreciation around my house for a week now. 🤣😂👍 Edit: Seriously though, you can level with me. Won’t tell, promise... Common core math is really just to torture anybody who comes into contact with it isn’t it? Like an educational demonic pact...
@@waitwhat1029 Thanks! During "Teacher Appreciation Week" last spring, my writing lessons involved having my students find one way each day to show gratitude to their parents. Seriously? I think Common Core math is for the birds. Each year, the first time we do one of those lessons, I'll show my class how to do it "by the book," and wait until I start to see a couple of kids who look like they just drank sour milk. Then I'll go back to the way we know and tell them that this is how Warren Buffet learned how to do it when he was their age, and you should see the anxiety disappear. It's like magic! Invariably, someone will ask if they can do their assignment that way, because it's easier. "That depends," I say. "Do you want to be a billionaire someday, or not?" Before too long, they realize that although I will teach the Common Core method, I will also teach it the way I learned it, and will tell them that if their parents know a different way, it's OK, too -- there are lots of ways to the right answer to a math problem (and most of them make more sense than Common Core).
YES! I don't remember the last time we had Ruffles in the house. Yesterday I was digging out the crumbs from the bottom of the bag to use with chip dip. Yes, we have chip dip now too!
OMG. O.M.G. THE LIGHTSABER AS POINTER. Best. Moment. EVER. You guys are KEEPING ME ALIVE HERE! "I've got just two students, and they're really mean...and they're mine. And here you are, year after year, being great..." Thank you, thank you, thank you. ::off to find inhaler after laughing so hard I'm wheezing::
My most favorite video you do. I watch this EVERYDAY (seriously). My kids have tried to remove it from my phone...but I find it. It brings more JOY than you know, because it is reality!!! Thanks ladies!!
I'm homeschooling now without online learning and I kid you not....I dont drink....how am I doing it?!?!? JESUS AND CRYING ON THE FLOOR IN THE BATHROOM🤣🤣🤣!! Teachers are seriously the best people in the world lol
@@lisamarieclark6778 during this whole experience- I definately feel the reward. To know how my child can learn,but in a different way is special! The Lord is definately moving my heart and changing me for the better!
Truly, I am in the same boat. I think we make it in the end, we will definitely be zombies... Kids like zombies right?!?! I never thought I would be handwriting work pages in double. Heck, I never thought I would have such an organized corner in my home and I can be quite organized for certain things. Good luck mama, I am rooting for us!!
That's the way it always went without the pandemic! I taught for 39 years as a classroom teacher. The GYM teacher always had a great gig! No responsibility for the same pay !
Thank you for this. I have a 6 yr old boy and he used to be in 3 activities so full of energy. I had to set up imagine learning and math facts. I couldn't locate the code I had put away. So I had to use class dojo to reach either of his teachers (mega-class of 40 students with 2 teachers). Took a week to get the codes, they didn't work. Got my son a laptop with windows 10 and well setup was difficult, all the chromebooks were sold out. I was near tears hacking his imagine learning, and I have always worked tech support but it is hard with your 6 year old pushing your buttons. 😱 Then I had to screenshot 20 posts on class dojo and edit them and print them and teach them then take pictures of it done and post 10 pics one at a time. Topping it off is exhaustion from psoriatic arthritis and my mom I care for in my home wandering in to distract him. So yup this is accurate. Also there are rumblings that there may not be in person school in the fall so stock up on wine and chips.🤪🍾🍷🧉🍟🍫
Be grateful that you have a mom. It's difficult if you do not feel well, but your kid needs a "Come to Jesus" lecture if he is going to be successful when he is an adult. Go back to flash cards and phonics. Make him write for at least an hour a day. Practice addition and subtraction facts. Have him read books for an hour a day. Do site word flash cards. He can make them the flash cards himself.
Imagine it? I lived it! And often there were many more than 30 in the class. From my experience, 2nd and 4th graders are the toughest. Totally wild beasts. 3rd grade is the best! As an Art teacher, I finally quit after more than a decade of total insanity, most from administration and their complete lack of support. You could never pay me enough to go back into that madhouse.
@@MomOfSeven123 That isn't true. Just because you've had bad experiences and a bad opinion of schooling doesn't mean there aren't wonderful teachers out there.
EVERYONE should thank their teachers. We are home learning week 1 and it is hard. THANK YOU TEACHERS. you deserve hazard pay. Lol. Really you deserve a pay raise. Thank you for all you do.
I did actually elect to home educate my sons for 14 years and yep, some days were like this - love the P.E. one and the mom in the bathroom with chocolate and wine! 🤣🤣🤣
I home schooled for a few years and loved it. I would say what helped was that during school time I was teacher, after school, I was Mom. Do not allow those 2 dynamics to intertwine and minimize the other. This video was great!
Having Covid hit when my child was on her first year of school (3.5 and in her first year of Headstart with the school district). It helped me appreciate teachers from the start which I felt I did anyways and had a better view of what they do and for how little they get paid etc. 3 years later and I definitely didn’t fully understand it or what teachers put into their kids in their class not only time wise but financially too. I try to go abi e and beyond to help with things they truly need and can use. Or want for their selves for school etc. and mostly just show appreciation for them is so easy and goes a long ways.
We started homeschooling 2019-2020, even just starting out the public school at home seemed SO much harder than what we do! Plus most of those parents were both working full time! This is so how I imagined it was for you!
My sister is a second grade teacher, and I sent a text to her asking how many of her student's parents have called her to apologize for their kids, her reply was "*sister's name* laughed at this"... am I right to think that that means a lot of them did?
Ya because the kids can say and do as they please and the teacher's cant do anything with these smart alec kid's. So good thing the parents got a good taste of what goes on in school.
First, thank you. I know this was exaggerated for comedy but your point is so appreciated! Next, to the parents of my students, and all parents out there struggling with this...you, have, got, this!! We all are struggling with online classes and we probably won't get it figured out until about a week after the corona virus has completely disappeared! But we cannot let that make or break us. Teachers are working so hard to find the best way to help their students because we truly care about our students. You are working your tail off to find the best method to help your children because you love them. It won't be perfect but it was never going to be perfect. If we stick together, support each other, and keep communicating maybe in hind sight this will turn out to have been a great opportunity?? Ok, too far but I made my point.😉
2 years later and your comment was spot on. Although I still find virtual learning is terrible with the software used last year (my daughter isn’t in public school at the moment due to health issues but will go back soon) It has helped immensely with using virtual appointments for doctors appointments that we travel for. They never did it before Covid for most specialists and the ones that did only had limited visits theh approved. Now most are doing it as a alternative option for every other visit or for therapies even so kids can get therapies that are rural. From clinics that didn’t use virtual or have access to doing it before Covid. Lots of things came out of the year of confusion and frustration going virtual for Covid in school and elsewhere. And of course I hope all parents learned a new appreciation for teachers and staff at school and can better show it and give more understanding when things go wrong or a mistake is made by the teacher or aids or whenever. I see it on my fb groups all day and some are warranted to be angry and their reaction but most are simply hard for me to even understand their reasoning for why they reacted the way they did. Mostly why so many cannot it won’t just talk to the teacher before blasting a one sided story of what happened. Emailing principles before even talking to the teacher seems so insane and chain of command is my first thought from my years in retail management and any job I’ve worked. Quickest way to break communication down is by not giving someone the simple respect of asking them what happened and hearing their side because my 4yo maybe isn’t the best person to recite facts. Or what happened despite being a huge deal and not okay based on her IEP and 504 plan. Once I simply asked about it I understand and it made sense why it happened. Wasn’t something that would happen again and again never was what it seemed. The reaction from teachers and staff from me simply talking to them and being understanding told me how rarely that is done or even just asking if they need something for the classroom. Helping with snacks as I can. Nothing too expensive and I’m low income but we can all help in some way. Even if it’s just providing some extra supppies or wipes or things they buy OOP.
We, as Moms, can do this! We've been doing this for their most critical years, 0-5. Nothing has changed, they are a bit older but the learning still goes on... Enjoy this time they grow too fast and then they are moving on. Use this time you reconnect, teach them basics (citizenship), invest time in morals. Parents- You've got this! ❤
@@krystalrussell1783 Well, I'm driving in my books, diving in my books. Now you wild out

Many, many parents were enlightened, inspired, and challenged by the crisis learning experience last spring. That's why scores of families will be choosing REAL homeschooling in the fall.
Yes!!! I have 4 and I don’t drink...I should probably drink because this is crazy pants ...speaking of-trying to get my kindergartener to put on pants for the zoom😐
I’m so glad my son graduated. The homeschooling is one thing, the fact that they want these kids to do common core math would have made me insane. I’m surprised that parents are not rising up now that they have had some serious one on one time with their kids going through this.
Love the I Mom So Hard ladies and it's fun, but as a teacher who in the past home-schooled my kids,what is happening today isn't home-school which is much more fun.not to mention we could go outside! I feel for all the parents and hope they remember this and teacher health when we open school gain and have little funding, lack of supplies, large classes, etc. Parents please speak up at those times!
I am a grandmother who had to take on this job. The kids are used to coming over to have fun. Guess what they did every time my attention was turned to the other sibling? They absconded to find some fun! I spent most of my day wrangling kids back to the table. But, a great memory!
At Least you had help. I was up all hours handwriting my first three weeks of curriculum. I finally bought some workbooks to supplement. Sleep is a good thing to not skip... I need a printer.
So true!!!😂😂😂 I’m homeschooling 3 out of 4 of my sons starting in about a week. Please! Pray for me! I’ve done it before with my oldest son whom graduated early and got straight A’s on his GED...I can do this again, but with 3...
I have a friend who has 19 grandchildren. All homeschooled. One mom had 11 kids. They each have a strict schedule. Two boys are taking college classes in addition to their high school classes. You Tube videos help ans a lot Khan Academy. Most are on an online class curriculum with additional textbooks and workbooks. Flash cards at all levels. They believe in repetitive work and memorization.
Rather B Fishing Wow! What an inspiration! I had my oldest do the Abeka Academy with DVD’s. It was a great program but very extensive. We chose the ACE program this time and integrating some parts of Abeka into it. Thank you for the encouragement! God bless!
It is so funny, it looks like we have kids for teachers to teach them all in life and it makes our lives better when they are gone in school, if we can’t stand our own kids then now you understand what teachers deal everyday ....
Last thing I’m watching before going to bed. Laughing so hard! My son has taken over my granddaughters schooling at home. (DIL works from home and he’s doing the teacher thing) I’m imagining him doing all this 🤣🤣🤣❤️🇺🇸
I think this pandemic will make parents appreciate teachers so much more and how parents need to discipline and teach their kids to have grit and perseverance! Don't make things too easy for your children!
Toooo funnnny! I tried to help my granddaughter who's 8 one day when I was watching her, and we were doing virtual school, and she said "MiMi you don't know what you're doing, just stop, I can do it myself". Lol
Don't forget about waking them up for school and they sleep when you go back to check on em.or they in the kitchen ,they playing music on the phone am like lord I can't do this am to old for this .🤣🤣🤣
I'M HOWLING OVER HERE!!! 😆😂😂 My stomach hurts! 😭 I don't even have kids... and I feel ALL their pain 😩 I can't imagine having to "try" and remember f**kin' "FRACTIONS!"... the horror! 😫
We homeschooled our son (pre-covid). We chose to homeschool. Spent so much time researching, preparing, connecting with other homeschoolers. And I still so relate to this. Especially hiding in the bathroom. Only for me, it was a big bag of M&M's and Bailey's.
“I have got two students right now and they are so mean and they are mine” 😂

I needed this laugh OMG LMAO
This is ALL me!!!! Please send them back to school.. Code word HELP!!! Lol 😂
Beggin my child to watch tv... hilarious!
That’s what I tell my son 😂! To go watch a movie instead of playing video games! 😂 😂
LMAO! The "It's P.E. time" woman with the Wonder Woman cup is literally me! 🤣🤣
Tears in my eyes 🤣 every second soooo true!
I loved this video! Now moms love teachers haha!
Having Covid hit when my child was on her first year of school (3.5 and in her first year of Headstart with the school district). It helped me appreciate teachers from the start which I felt I did anyways and had a better view of what they do and for how little they get paid etc.
3 years later and I definitely didn’t fully understand it or what teachers put into their kids in their class not only time wise but financially too. I try to go abi e and beyond to help with things they truly need and can use. Or want for their selves for school etc. and mostly just show appreciation for them is so easy and goes a long ways.
And yes... screw the distributive property... just multiply it! LOL!!!
😂😂😂😂 Screaming...this too funny!
We started homeschooling 2019-2020, even just starting out the public school at home seemed SO much harder than what we do! Plus most of those parents were both working full time! This is so how I imagined it was for you!
Just hilarious! I’ll have to see over again 🤣
My sister is a second grade teacher, and I sent a text to her asking how many of her student's parents have called her to apologize for their kids, her reply was "*sister's name* laughed at this"... am I right to think that that means a lot of them did?
Ya because the kids can say and do as they please and the teacher's cant do anything with these smart alec kid's. So good thing the parents got a good taste of what goes on in school.
The way that simple math question was worded made me realize how much elementary school math has changed.
First, thank you. I know this was exaggerated for comedy but your point is so appreciated! Next, to the parents of my students, and all parents out there struggling with this...you, have, got, this!! We all are struggling with online classes and we probably won't get it figured out until about a week after the corona virus has completely disappeared! But we cannot let that make or break us. Teachers are working so hard to find the best way to help their students because we truly care about our students. You are working your tail off to find the best method to help your children because you love them. It won't be perfect but it was never going to be perfect. If we stick together, support each other, and keep communicating maybe in hind sight this will turn out to have been a great opportunity??
Ok, too far but I made my point.😉
2 years later and your comment was spot on. Although I still find virtual learning is terrible with the software used last year (my daughter isn’t in public school at the moment due to health issues but will go back soon)
It has helped immensely with using virtual appointments for doctors appointments that we travel for. They never did it before Covid for most specialists and the ones that did only had limited visits theh approved. Now most are doing it as a alternative option for every other visit or for therapies even so kids can get therapies that are rural. From clinics that didn’t use virtual or have access to doing it before Covid.
Lots of things came out of the year of confusion and frustration going virtual for Covid in school and elsewhere. And of course I hope all parents learned a new appreciation for teachers and staff at school and can better show it and give more understanding when things go wrong or a mistake is made by the teacher or aids or whenever. I see it on my fb groups all day and some are warranted to be angry and their reaction but most are simply hard for me to even understand their reasoning for why they reacted the way they did. Mostly why so many cannot it won’t just talk to the teacher before blasting a one sided story of what happened. Emailing principles before even talking to the teacher seems so insane and chain of command is my first thought from my years in retail management and any job I’ve worked. Quickest way to break communication down is by not giving someone the simple respect of asking them what happened and hearing their side because my 4yo maybe isn’t the best person to recite facts. Or what happened despite being a huge deal and not okay based on her IEP and 504 plan. Once I simply asked about it I understand and it made sense why it happened. Wasn’t something that would happen again and again never was what it seemed.
The reaction from teachers and staff from me simply talking to them and being understanding told me how rarely that is done or even just asking if they need something for the classroom. Helping with snacks as I can. Nothing too expensive and I’m low income but we can all help in some way. Even if it’s just providing some extra supppies or wipes or things they buy OOP.
We, as Moms, can do this! We've been doing this for their most critical years, 0-5. Nothing has changed, they are a bit older but the learning still goes on... Enjoy this time they grow too fast and then they are moving on. Use this time you reconnect, teach them basics (citizenship), invest time in morals. Parents- You've got this! ❤
I’m literally in tears over here. This was so funny! I thought I was the only one drinking lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I feel yalls pain! This is HILARIOUS!
Why does she has swimming goggles on her head 😂😂😂😂
I'm swimming into school! Lol
@@krystalrussell1783
Well, I'm driving in my books,
diving in my books.
Now you wild out
Many, many parents were enlightened, inspired, and challenged by the crisis learning experience last spring.
That's why scores of families will be choosing REAL homeschooling in the fall.
Amen!
Yes!!! I have 4 and I don’t drink...I should probably drink because this is crazy pants ...speaking of-trying to get my kindergartener to put on pants for the zoom😐
😂
I’m so glad my son graduated. The homeschooling is one thing, the fact that they want these kids to do common core math would have made me insane. I’m surprised that parents are not rising up now that they have had some serious one on one time with their kids going through this.
I love her pointer
It’s PE time
“Go go run put the ipad down”
Loving her half assed attempt
The Chopin Black Keys Etude in the background was perfect!
MOMS ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!💝
😆😂😅🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍. Look....we've gone back to the cave drawing days where we can communicate without words. 😊👍
Love the I Mom So Hard ladies and it's fun, but as a teacher who in the past home-schooled my kids,what is happening today isn't home-school which is much more fun.not to mention we could go outside! I feel for all the parents and hope they remember this and teacher health when we open school gain and have little funding, lack of supplies, large classes, etc. Parents please speak up at those times!
Awesome 👏! Loved the food eating in the bathroom... and sweating... Well done!
The mom with the goggles on her head sounds like she wants to cry. 😂😂
I sure needed that laugh! More please
I am a grandmother who had to take on this job. The kids are used to coming over to have fun. Guess what they did every time my attention was turned to the other sibling? They absconded to find some fun! I spent most of my day wrangling kids back to the table. But, a great memory!
My mom was like I'll help you print out stuff but good luck on the rest!!!!!
At Least you had help. I was up all hours handwriting my first three weeks of curriculum. I finally bought some workbooks to supplement. Sleep is a good thing to not skip... I need a printer.
So true!!!😂😂😂 I’m homeschooling 3 out of 4 of my sons starting in about a week. Please! Pray for me! I’ve done it before with my oldest son whom graduated early and got straight A’s on his GED...I can do this again, but with 3...
I have a friend who has 19 grandchildren. All homeschooled. One mom had 11 kids. They each have a strict schedule. Two boys are taking college classes in addition to their high school classes. You Tube videos help ans a lot Khan Academy. Most are on an online class curriculum with additional textbooks and workbooks. Flash cards at all levels. They believe in repetitive work and memorization.
Rather B Fishing Wow! What an inspiration! I had my oldest do the Abeka Academy with DVD’s. It was a great program but very extensive. We chose the ACE program this time and integrating some parts of Abeka into it. Thank you for the encouragement! God bless!
It is so funny, it looks like we have kids for teachers to teach them all in life and it makes our lives better when they are gone in school, if we can’t stand our own kids then now you understand what teachers deal everyday ....
Last thing I’m watching before going to bed. Laughing so hard! My son has taken over my granddaughters schooling at home. (DIL works from home and he’s doing the teacher thing) I’m imagining him doing all this 🤣🤣🤣❤️🇺🇸
Hahahahaha hahahahaha she wanted to put in her two weeks in day one. Hahahahaha hahahahaha hilarious
I think this pandemic will make parents appreciate teachers so much more and how parents need to discipline and teach their kids to have grit and perseverance! Don't make things too easy for your children!
The wine and the candy in the bathroom,😂😂😂😂, I can't...
I wish I had saved my candy from Halloween like the mom in the bathroom
Retired teacher, no kids, laughing hysterically and feeling very smug😂😂😂😷🇨🇦
"Why can't I just go twelve times nine?!
the mom who was unmuted- i cant - 😂
I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry! I am so that mom hiding in the bathroom with wine and candy!!!
It’s funny.......bc it’s true!! “Did you just toot?!?” 😭😂
Toooo funnnny! I tried to help my granddaughter who's 8 one day when I was watching her, and we were doing virtual school, and she said "MiMi you don't know what you're doing, just stop, I can do it myself". Lol
At the bottom our marriage counselor zooms are Monday Wednesday and Friday😂😂😂her face when she said it

To all the teachers thank you because of you I found my calling. Teaching. Because of you I have Teacher Fever

Don't forget about waking them up for school and they sleep when you go back to check on em.or they in the kitchen ,they playing music on the phone am like lord I can't do this am to old for this .🤣🤣🤣
The struggle is real. Trauma counseling is needed
I'M HOWLING OVER HERE!!! 😆😂😂 My stomach hurts! 😭
I don't even have kids... and I feel ALL their pain 😩
I can't imagine having to "try" and remember f**kin' "FRACTIONS!"... the horror! 😫
This was so hilarious!!!
That is the best thing ever! I don't even have kids yet and I feel the pain and frustration.
We homeschooled our son (pre-covid). We chose to homeschool. Spent so much time researching, preparing, connecting with other homeschoolers. And I still so relate to this. Especially hiding in the bathroom. Only for me, it was a big bag of M&M's and Bailey's.
