    I am so glad to see that I am not the only person intimidated by Starbucks. I never know how to order when I go in! Enjoy your Spring break. You need the rest. Congratulations on your 50th vlog. I have enjoyed all of them and have watched a few of the organizational ones several times! Feel better.

    I'm a first year teacher over in Australia and I am rewatching your old vlogs during our term break. I feel so validated and like I am not the only one facing all the frustrations and difficulties from being a teacher re student behaviours etc. I'm learning so many lesson ideas and organisational tips from your videos. Thank you Michelle!!

    You're so great Michelle. Don't feel intimidated by the Starbucks menu. I'm a Starbucks Barista/Math Teacher. It's not as complex as it looks. Most baristas will help you if you ask. I know you get a Iced Coffee with French Vanilla swirl from Dunkin Doughnuts and some things that are similar to that at Starbucks are Coconut Cold Brew, Vanilla Bean Creme Frapucinno, and an Iced Vanilla Latte . I stick with Americanos (Hot) but that's just me. It's strong and will keep you going all day but theres no sugar in it but it could be a good pre-cruise switch.

    I always order Starbucks from the app! Gives you time to choose what you want and then you don't have to talk to anyone when you go inside to grab it. Happy Spring Break :)

    Watching your videos has seriously inspired me! I am a third year teacher, and while I LOVE my job, I tend to get really tired around this time of year (as I'm sure you totally understand). I just found your channel and have been binge watching your videos. You have given me several ideas and have motivated me to get areas of my classroom reorganized! It feels so good. Usually, at this point in the school year, I start to think about all of the things I want to try with my next class. However, seeing everything you do has made me realize that there is no better time than the present, so I am implementing all of these new things with my current class to test them out for next year! Keep up the good work!

    I love these vlogs. They are a favourite of mine. I look forward to every weekend so I can chill out and watch the real life dramas of being a teacher. I am from Australia and studying to finally become a primary school teacher. (I'm 30 😀) thank you for sharing everything. It's just wonderful. I hope that you have a beautiful cruise.

    I love your lessons and how they flow into each other. As a high school teacher on semester scheduling, our pacing is a bit more rushed, and the work is different, but I still find so much inspiration in your plans.

    I used to be so intimidated by Starbucks but now I'm one of those people with THOSE orders - long and complicated! But if I make a joke about it or ask for their input they're always super nice! Starbucks isn't my favorite coffee in the world, but I love how much you can customize things. Also the new blonde espresso is really yummy in lattes!

    I'm sorry i have to comment again! I was feeling EXACTLY like you before spring break. I mean, my mouth almost dropped open when I heard you talking because you sounded exactly like me. I had a student that had to be physically escorted out of the class and he was brought back with a toy and no consequence a few moments later. I was SO DRAINED! At one point in the day I did not pull my last small group, and I sat at my desk and had to silently gather myself before dismissal ahhh! I am so glad that there are teachers like you. I just starting watching your videos and I am so glad that I found your channel. xoxox

    I love watching your videos. I live in the UK and I love seeing the differences between America schools and UK schools. I really loved how you spent time explaining what autism is to your students. You have really inspired me to become a teacher assistant in September and I hope that one day I can be a great teacher like you.

    I agree with you about the pros and cons of reading assessments. We administer the DRA for reading fluency and comprehension in a one-on-one format. It can be very time-consuming, but gives some valuable information. Thanks for such a realistic and fun video! 😊

    Michelle you give me hope! You are exactly the type of teacher I want to be. I don't know how you stay so positive but I watch your videos religiously in hopes your positivity will rub off on me! I graduated in January and somehow managed to get a permanent position as a first grade Sp Ed teacher in an ICT classroom. I am 7 weeks in. My class is out of control. (Mind you not all of the problems are the special ed student, most of them are the general education students.) They are 6 years old flipping tables, hitting me, biting me, pulling my hair, throwing all the papers off my desk, screaming. It's been tough. My co-teacher religiously tells me she "hates kids" and regrets becoming a teacher. I pour my heart and soul into teaching but she tells me that this class isn't worth it and that one day I won't be so excited about a teaching. "It's just a job" she tells me every day. Despite all my students behavior problems, I do love it. Watching your videos these past 7 weeks have really helped me just stay positive. I admire the way you handle a tough class with grace!

    Just for future reference: you can add all those cards to the Starbucks app and combine them and pay with your phone there. Then you could get that if you didn't have your wallet too :) Also, the other person's suggestion to use the app is a great idea!

    @PuffleFuzz 3 года назад

    I was such a bad kid in 2nd grade. Probably because I had undiagnosed ADHD and a huge attitude. I always got calls home. But yet I was never sent to the office for some reason. I don’t think the principal even knew who I was. So I feel bad that you have to deal with all the discipline issues.

    I looked back at all of your previous videos in the descriptions, and I cannot find where you got your state shirt with the word teacher on it. I thought I remembered you saying where you got it, but I can't remember. Would you mind sharing where you got that shirt again? I looked at Blue Envelope thinking that was it, but I did not see it there. Thanks!

    You should also download the Starbucks app. You can put all of your gift cards in there, and it has similar features as the Dunkin app. You can order from the app and pay with your phone, so if you forget your wallet, you can still get coffee. 😊
