It’s hard to believe that I’ve been back in school for only two weeks… winter break already feels like a distant memory 😂On our first day back, I wanted to keep things consistent and predictable so my students started class with a warm up in their notebooks. Then, we eased our way into the rest of the day by taking some time to work on our word of the year! I made my own along with my students and cheated a little by pulling in some of my favorite @kamiapp stickers.

Thank you to everyone who shared their word of the year walls. It is so special seeing the words and creativity of our students 💕What were some ways you started your year with your students? #iteachtoo #teacherlife #teacherootd

Recently my friend @jungyooness told me about a learning moment she had that just clicked. I immediately said, “That doesn’t happen to me” until I started to think of things I did as a new teacher that I don’t do now including the phrase, “I’ll be there in a second.”

First year, I threw this phrase to EVERY student who needed help. As my seconds turned to minutes then ten minutes, my students would get frustrated and in turn I’d get overwhelmed and frustrated. I couldn’t figure out what was happening until someone told me to use more realistic time frames when making this statement. I learned to replace ‘a second’ with ‘thirty seconds’, ‘one minute’, ‘three minutes’, or ‘ten minutes.’ I didn’t magically transform my classroom but it was a small change that helped my students feel more trust in my words and allowed me to give them the support that they needed in a timeframe that worked for me.

What are some shifts in your language that has helped you in your classroom? Let me know! 💕 #iteachtoo #teacherofinstagram #classroomcommunity #mathteacher

My calendar takes me about 20 minutes each month to update but is seriously my biggest life saver. As a teacher teaching on two campuses, I love that it’s a gigantic reminder for me of events, drills, and due dates so I don’t miss out. It’s also right in my line of sight so I can always check it to remind myself of any student birthdays coming up so we don’t forget to celebrate 🤗 What are some of your must haves in your classroom? #teacherlife #classroomdecor #iteachmath

To say that first year me struggled with classroom

To say that first year me struggled with classroom management would be an understatement. I still remember frantically walking down the hallway after yet another chaotic special drop off when I ran into our executive director who told me, “As they say, don’t smile until Christmas!” New teacher me immediately took that to heart and I very unsuccessfully tried to lay down the hammer.

Over time, I’ve learned to figure out who I was as a teacher and “not smiling until Christmas” did not make the cut 😂There’s no one liner I can share to say what worked or how I fixed it because that’s just not what teaching is. Every year, classroom and situation is different and that’s okay! However one thing that can stay constant is the trust your students have in your routines, consequences and your actions. Hope you all had a smooth transition back to school this new year 😍💕💕What are some things first year you did that you’d never do again? #teacherlife #iteachtoo #mathteacher #classroommanagement

First day back in 2023 and I’m so so thankful for a no student day! We started the day with school safety training and was given the rest of the time to do what we needed. I was able to finish a bulletin board I had planned, update our classroom calendar, plan for the week and also.. eat my lunch 😱! Shoutout to Alison @thecoffeelovinteacher for inspiring my OG heatless curls today! How was all of your first few days back? #teachersofinstagram #backtoschool #2023

Please tell me I’m not the only one 😂 When I first started teaching, I switched seats every month because it was my best classroom management strategy 😂 Now my seating charts happen more sporadically to keep my students on their toes. How often do you switch seats? #teachersofinstagram #iteachtoo

Kobe and Chloe spent the last two days running around with Cousin Gracie. Even before presents were opened this morning they all knocked out 😂 As I’m typing this caption at home, Kobe and Chloe are sleeping off their weekend excitement and Fred is starting his night shift at the hospital 😓Though it was a short few days, I’m so thankful we had a chance to celebrate with family and friends 💕 Hope everyone had a beautiful and warm last few days! #dogsofinstagram #goldenretriever
