I remember watching these while I was in college and dreaming of decorating my own classroom. Now I’m going into my fourth year of teaching and still love watching ❤️

Hi!!! I am a first year, 2nd grade teacher at a Title 1 in Texas!!! I left my 10 year career in the medical field when my youngest started kinder in order to have more time with my family!!! (My hubby is a HS teacher and coach) I started as a para and fell in love with education and felt God calling me into a classroom of my own, so I started my teaching journey through alternative certification. I am so excited for my first year and to see how God is going to use me in and through this new journey!!!! 🎉✏️💜

After taking a year off, I am going back into the classroom to teach 2nd grade. This will be my 21st year of teaching.

I retired after 34 years at the end of 2023, but I still love watching your videos! Great job as always!

First off I cannot believe it's been 7 years! I remember when you were getting married and now you've got 3 kids! Second - I am always surprised when teachers are able to set up their rooms right after 4th of July! We don't even get out until June 20 something and then our school has summer school in it, so I don't set up my room until the end of August and am crazy focused to get it all done in a full day (10 hours). Anyone else the same?

I took my three tier cart home this year too, it just took up room. I turned it into a cleaning cart for my house 😊

I started watching you when you first began. So nostalgic watching you again!

Jumped RIGHT on this 😂 I just finished my second year! I taught 2/3 both years and LOVED it!

Those big rolly TVs are great but finding a good space for them is such a challenge! Hearing you think through your organization is really helpful, thanks for sharing.

It's my first year teaching. I will be teaching kindergarten. I'm planning to head to my classroom tomorrow to start my setup. 😊 Really hoping it goes well.

I teach preschool, but I’m going into a new room and need a revamp. Thank you for the inspiration and helping keep me sane!

I started watching you while staying home with my now 6 yr old. I'm not a teacher but LOVE watching your videos ❤

My last year of teaching I got rid of my desk and used my small group table as my “teacher space”. It worked out beautifully because I had a lot more space and all of my stuff was in one place.

I am a middle school treasurer in North Carolina. I just moved offices last week/this week and I totally pre-planned my move. 🤣 I went into my AP's office because she came up to the front office with our new principal, so I took pictures & measurements of her office before the move and really planned out how to lay out the space. I still need to tackle my huge BB after a trip to HL to get backing & border then order a small chair & table since I have the space.

I also have a door now so I am excited to decorate that!

They need to take down some of the BB in the middle & mount the promethium on the wall. All of ours are mounted and it saves so much space.

I have missed you so much, beyond excited for this series...I am starting my 3rd year of Preschool at a new center, an hour away but I am loving it and I am salaried, and never had that before, paid more than my last two positions in preschool. Not super PreK fond but our center is planning to expand in an academy next fall 2025, where I can move age and grade levels...

I just completed a 3/4 combo this past year! It was tough but manageable & made it through! I only had 5 3rd graders so I relied on my small group table for them it was awesome! I had 23 4th graders though so pretty much could only do whole group which was not ideal. Wish you the best this school year! Love to see these set up videos🥰 looking forward to seeing your 3rd grade content as I chose to teach only 3rd this year 🎉

[Patience]

Hi Shelley I started watching you 5 years ago when I first started teaching and preparing for classroom setup. Classroom setup videos are my favorite. ❤

[michellemp]

Loved this!! Your daughter is beautiful!! How nice for you to have this video to look back on. ❤ Mommy/daughter classroom set-up!

Congrats on the new little one! I am back this year after taking a year off. Taught for 9 years and now I am in a new state and learning all the standards for a 4th grade Dual Language position.

[nataliebueckert]

I will be teaching 2/3 as well here in Alberta, Canada!!
This is my second time around for me in my 25 years of teaching.
Thanks for such great inspiration!!
