I have taught PreK and kindergarten for over 20 years and was a paraprofessional in a PPCD classroom decades ago. This year will be my first year teaching PreK-Sped and your video was extremely beneficial. I will be rewatching and subscribing to your channel. I am nervous, but excited. Thank you for this look into your classroom. I would like to see more on how your paraprofessional helpers assist you in the classroom. Thank you again.

Excellent video and your classroom is so bright and inviting. I see that it's elementary. What about classroom setup for middle school?

[ms.reyessuniqueclassroom]

How do you teach the students how to use the independent centers? What are the other students doing when you're explicitly teaching independent centers? Great space!

I am a special education teacher in Turkey, I am grateful if I can find a chair where I can sit in the classroom and a chair and table for my students to sit at.

Where can I find a the schedule you have that they carry around? I love it!!!

[anaventura]

Where can I get access to the schedules you use?
Love, love your ideas.

I'm exhausted by managing schedule pieces! I LOVE the schedules for your kids. Are they available on TPT? Thank you!!

I love the mobile partition, where did your school get this specific one?

[LaurenDarr]

What elements do you think are important to include in the play center? Also what do you do at your teacher table? I noticed in this tour there's not a specific math center- how do you incorporate math? Thank you so much. :)

Hello, Can You please show us how you conduct the classes.

[videosforclass]

Thank you for the video. I have a question regarding centers. Do you time rotating each center? some finish earlier than others and some take longer than others. How do you keep them rotated? I have tried centers and that was my struggle.
