❤️❤️❤️The LED lights❤️❤️❤️ I hear you about the energy level once school starts! So true! Once the year starts the to do list just explodes with so many things!
I will never judge a teacher for going in to set up their room early. I am extremely jealous of the teachers that get to go in early to set up. I am not allowed back into the building until contract days begin, though I am going to be begging and pleading to be able to go in during the 3 days that new staff report back because I am moving classrooms and the teacher before me left a lot of stuff behind and I need time to sort through stuff and get the new room set up.
No judgement here. As an experienced (aka "old") teacher, I know the value of setting up early. Teacher in service is full of meetings and paperwork. I love getting my classroom set up early. Less stress and puts me in the right mind set. Love your videos!!
This is my first year teaching after graduating college, and I spend this entire week to start my classroom set up. I still got a lot of things to do, but I can say for sure it came together!
Yay! I'm from the buckeye state too! I love your energy! I teach 3rd grade math, science, and social studies. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you. I just subscribed to your channel.
A male teacher!!!! Yay! No offense ladies, but there aren’t many of us in the elementary setting(I’m the only one in my school). I have taught all grades levels except 5th and will have an adventure this year with kindergarten. I love the younger kids except when I say turn to page 106 and we teach them to count to 50 by mid year. Lol. Anyway, keep the videos coming. Love your style and personality. Woot woot!!!
I moved my room last year. My favorite part (besides being DONE) was organizing cupboards. Right now all of my math materials are in one section of the room. That wasn’t the case in my old room, ha ha.
Command adhesive actually holds pretty well on cinder block; I used Command strips pretty much exclusively in my classroom, and I really didn't have much of an issue with things falling down!
I love the lights! I share your pain for cinder block walls. Decorating them has been a challenge for me over the years in a humid room! I think you have decorated it all very well so far. 👏🏼
Hey there!! I def recommend getting magnetic hooks for the glass lights :) I had those in my classroom last year. In the beginning, I hung them with command hooks...one fell....and then it was a chain reaction and SCARY!!!! Once I bought magnetic hooks, it was a game-changer. They are on amazon and, the lining between tiles is magnetic ;)
I love your job Mr. Cohen. I want to be a teacher someday. Also Mr. Cohen, have you made videos on how to relate with students especially, for lack of a better word, stubborn students?
Hello from Brazil! I’m studying to be a kids teacher (in Brazil the name of levels is different) and your channel is a motivation for me. Thanks a lot for this!!
I just have to say that you have me laughing through Out the video ! I can’t wait to see how you complete your room ! Love love and love the lights ! I’m am moving rooms as well any tips on how to do this the most efficient way ?
Wow I am now thinking about how my 4th grade year all I remember is dark rooms because my teachers in 4th grade always showed us videos with the projectors
Hey Kyle - Just a thought - but I would hang the bulb lights from the ceiling - looping them through the metal. You can be sure they won't fall that way.
Love the bold colors. Even though you have used many different colors, there is still cohesion. I'm jealous that you can have extra lights. We're not allowed to have any devices that use electricity in our classrooms.
Just found your channel and it's nice to have more upper elementary(grades 4-5) to watch. Where did you say you got your letters from again? I'm trying to find ways to make letters. Thank you. Alicia from CT
Can you make a video about what first-year teachers should be doing the summer before their first year? What did you do to bridge the gap between college and classroom?
"Definitely should not stand on a chair like this to hang these glass lights.... that would be a bad idea..."👀 Don't worry, I like to live dangerously as well...😜
The book Officer Buckle and Gloria has a part about not standing on a roller chair. Does the SmartBoard still work? Those are almost 20 years old. What do I like about setting up a classroom? I actually like putting pencils and crayons on the desks because that is the last thing that I do. I hope that your summer is treating you well. Thank you for your presentation.
In the past I have used painter's tape before using the glue gun on this type of wall. That way when you're cleaning up at the EOY the paint won't come off. 😬
Hello Kyle ! I would love to have that time to set up my classroom. Only 1 Day in French Guyana . 😭😭😭 No Target . No Dollar tree. 😓 Just love your channel 😍
My teachers had to set things up so they only got 2 weeks of rest thrn the rest if the summer they had to move all the things from our temporary building to our actual building
So I have been watching lots of classroom set up videos lately and I realize that they are all women doing it so I searched up if there were any men doing it and I’m so happy to see that you’re doing it because I haven’t seen a lot of men doing classroom set up
When you hot glue the posters/papers on the wall does it come off okay at the end of the year??? That is a concrete wall??? Thank you! Love the videos!
I feel like I RARELY see male elementary school teachers. Back then in elementary I think the health teacher, principal, and janitors were the only men. The rest were women.
Sooooo excited to be sharing my classroom setup journey!🥳What is your favorite part of setting up a classroom? Let me know down below!⬇️⬇️⬇️
Lighting
Setting the furniture up
Organising my math supplies! 😁
Filling and distributing my bins of supplies for each table! 😄
P.S. Great video! I can’t wait for the next classroom setup vid! 😃
Panicking about having to set up lol
If “Do as I say, not as I do” was a person 😂😂 I loved everything about this video!
Hahahahaha!! Thank you thank you
“One could say, it’s going to be LIT. *awkward laugh*” 😂❤️
“Unnecessary classroom lighting!” 😂🤣 You are brutally honest and binge worthy!!
❤️❤️❤️The LED lights❤️❤️❤️
I hear you about the energy level once school starts! So true! Once the year starts the to do list just explodes with so many things!
You are my spirit person ❤. My favorite part is the decorating.
I will never judge a teacher for going in to set up their room early. I am extremely jealous of the teachers that get to go in early to set up. I am not allowed back into the building until contract days begin, though I am going to be begging and pleading to be able to go in during the 3 days that new staff report back because I am moving classrooms and the teacher before me left a lot of stuff behind and I need time to sort through stuff and get the new room set up.
How on earth do you have time to do everything!?!?!
I agree! Lighting IS essential!! It makes a whole room. Also, yes, the overhead lighting is awful at times.
Essential!!!
No judgement here. As an experienced (aka "old") teacher, I know the value of setting up early. Teacher in service is full of meetings and paperwork. I love getting my classroom set up early. Less stress and puts me in the right mind set. Love your videos!!
Love how you got all excited about decorating and then advised against doing those things first.
This is my first year teaching after graduating college, and I spend this entire week to start my classroom set up. I still got a lot of things to do, but I can say for sure it came together!
The lights are AMAZING and really do set the mood. You better hide that remote, the kids are going to love it!
Haha!! Great call on that. Really excited about them!!
I loved this video. “I don’t recommend you do this..” continues to do it. 😂😂😂
Omg! This is my first time watching your channel. This is great! I’m a 4th grade teacher in Massachusetts. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I love all the math visuals, especially the math vocab board. It looks awesome!
Yay! I'm from the buckeye state too! I love your energy! I teach 3rd grade math, science, and social studies. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you.

I’m going into 4th grade. Honestly need to know everything I can scramble. Great vid! Thanks!
My sister is too!
You are such a great teacher Mr Cohen. I sense so much of passion and dedication in you. All the best.
I love lighting too!!!!!! It’s one of my favorite things to add!
I'm going in and working on my room a few times a week over summer as well. I get it.
I moved my room last year. My favorite part (besides being DONE) was organizing cupboards. Right now all of my math materials are in one section of the room. That wasn’t the case in my old room, ha ha.
My students said I was drip last year because I had lights like that. It sure made me feel good. I have to up my game this year.
I love your idea of having the kids sign their name on the numbers whenever they master a multiple!
No judgement at all! I’m already setting up too! You do you, boo.
Love the math talk board!!!!
I love your love of hot glue.
My just turned 15 year old daughter was born in Lakewood :) but we lived off 126 and Lorain Ave. Nice to see a teacher from Cleveland.
No way!! I love Lakewood!
Command adhesive actually holds pretty well on cinder block; I used Command strips pretty much exclusively in my classroom, and I really didn't have much of an issue with things falling down!
You are hilarious! Love your sense of humor! Have a great school year!
P.S.-Thanks for the hot glue tip! Never thought of that before!
I love the lights! I share your pain for cinder block walls. Decorating them has been a challenge for me over the years in a humid room! I think you have decorated it all very well so far. 👏🏼
LOVE the lights. And hot glue🤣
You are so right! This is the perfect time to do this. You are doing great! 👍
I just saw you on Tik Tok! Super excited to see you on You tube!!!
Have a great year kyle!!!!
Looking forward to it!
So awesome, I’m inspired.
Hey there!! I def recommend getting magnetic hooks for the glass lights :) I had those in my classroom last year.

Ahhhhh my biggest nightmare! Thanks for the suggestion☺️
So excited
🥳🥳🥳
Love the new classroom and the lights.
Looooove the lights💡💡💡
I love your job Mr. Cohen. I want to be a teacher someday. Also Mr. Cohen, have you made videos on how to relate with students especially, for lack of a better word, stubborn students?
Am I the only one who's been patiently waiting for these videos? 😅❤
Hello from Brazil!
I’m studying to be a kids teacher (in Brazil the name of levels is different) and your channel is a motivation for me. Thanks a lot for this!!
I love your math talk wall. Might have to copy that. Thank you so much for sharing.
I just have to say that you have me laughing through
Out the video ! I can’t wait to see how you complete your room ! Love love and love the lights ! I’m am moving rooms as well any tips on how to do this the most efficient way ?
Wow I am now thinking about how my 4th grade year all I remember is dark rooms because my teachers in 4th grade always showed us videos with the projectors
Hey Kyle - Just a thought - but I would hang the bulb lights from the ceiling - looping them through the metal. You can be sure they won't fall that way.
Love this idea, but it actually goes against our fire code! Can’t have anything hanging in or from the ceiling🙃
These Videos Are Entertaining
Love the bold colors. Even though you have used many different colors, there is still cohesion. I'm jealous that you can have extra lights. We're not allowed to have any devices that use electricity in our classrooms.
It’s very lit 😂😂😂
Just found your channel and it's nice to have more upper elementary(grades 4-5) to watch. Where did you say you got your letters from again? I'm trying to find ways to make letters. Thank you. Alicia from CT
Looks like you have a nice, large room!
Can you make a video about what first-year teachers should be doing the summer before their first year? What did you do to bridge the gap between college and classroom?
This is great!! I have a few videos geared towards newer teachers, but I'll for sure get right on this. Hope it's an awesome year!
"Definitely should not stand on a chair like this to hang these glass lights.... that would be a bad idea..."👀 Don't worry, I like to live dangerously as well...😜
Looking good!
Thanks so much!!
I think you and every teacher should be sponsor by command hooks. 😂

I was born in Cleveland ! GO Buckeys

I work for CMSD, what school do you work at? Love your personality! And I love your lighting tip!
Hello Kyle ! I would love to have that time to set up my classroom. Only 1 Day in French Guyana . 😭😭😭 No Target . No Dollar tree. 😓 Just love your channel 😍
Wow wow!! I can’t imagine. Thanks so much for watching!
i love your videos
It’s finally time
Yesssss🥳🥳
My teachers had to set things up so they only got 2 weeks of rest thrn the rest if the summer they had to move all the things from our temporary building to our actual building
No judgment at all, I’m jealous. We start August 16th and I can’t get into my class until August 9th.😩
Enjoying these final summer moments!
So I have been watching lots of classroom set up videos lately and I realize that they are all women doing it so I searched up if there were any men doing it and I’m so happy to see that you’re doing it because I haven’t seen a lot of men doing classroom set up
When you hot glue the posters/papers on the wall does it come off okay at the end of the year??? That is a concrete wall??? Thank you! Love the videos!
Yes!! Hot glue is a miracle!!!
I would love to be able to set up now. Our tile hasn't been laid yet, so I can't get in....
Ughhhhh -- hopefully soon!
OMG if you were my one of my highschool teachers I would've had SUCH a crush to reckonl with lol... :0
Great video
I don't wanna go to school. The kids are really mean.
What grade do you teach
I live in Cincinnati ohio
