CLASSROOM SETUP DAY ONE: Moving to my new school!

hello friends i'm not gonna even lie i am stressed i am at my old school if you didn't see my new news i got a new job yay so i'm gonna be teaching fourth grade at a school down in orange county where i live now which means i need to empty out my classroom an hour and a half away which is where i'm at now i got a u-haul i just got a 10-footer i don't know if it's gonna be enough but i can always come back tomorrow if i need to so i have this classroom to clean out which was my old classroom the portable that's the only stuff i have in there plus my little mini fridge and then some of the flexible seating that's in there some of it is from the school so i have to leave it here but i have so much stuff i just went and looked in the other room that i was gonna move in if i was staying at the school next year and i have all of the cabinets are full and then i've just got like a bunch of stuff i don't know if the u-haul is even big enough it is 100 degrees out here i'm already sweating and i'm just a little bit freaking out and stressed it's fine it's fine it's fine so let's see what we have to take today all of this is coming all of this is coming except for that one that's from the school and then all of this is coming my principal said i could leave the stage in here if the next teacher wanted it and i haven't heard anything yet so i'm just going gonna leave it and then if she wants me to come get it i can but it's awesome storage for this room and the kids can sit on it too so i feel like that would be like a cool gift to get in a new classroom i don't know and then all of this stuff is coming too except for the basketball stuff honestly now that i'm looking at it i feel like i messed up and didn't get a big enough u-haul that's fine i'll put as much as i can in today pack everything up if i need to come back tomorrow tomorrow's the last day i can be here so we'll see i'm not going to be doing like a time lapse of me putting everything in because one i don't have time to be like setting up the camera here and there you know just for like the time lapse shot for the video and i also don't want to drain my battery so i'm just gonna pick you guys back up and show you next time i take a break oh my gosh i'm like still out of breath right now because i'm not even gonna take a break i just gotta keep going but i just wanted to show you oh my gosh i'm so sweaty um i finished this room i'm leaving some stuff i ended up breaking down those white cabinets they just weren't very sturdy i've been using them for the last three years and it just they're done so those are gone the rug i'm not bringing that those little rainbow flexible seating spot stools are dirty they were like a dollar from the dollar tree that's all chipped and painted or the paint is chipped i'm i'm so tired definitely think the truck is gonna be too small we'll see i'll keep you posted i'm already so sweaty and exhausted like the back of my shirt right now is just like wet all right let's keep going all right so this is the situation right now i've only so far emptied out my old room but there's still lots of space i just haven't like pushed anything back and i'm gonna need to rearrange the show i don't really know i was thinking maybe you're putting like the stools long ways across so i have more room for boxes down here but also if i need to come back tomorrow i can it's only 20 bucks a day so whatever and i'm gonna have to drive it back here anyways so not stressing that much it'll be fine okay now i'm in my old new room so the room i was supposed to be in that i was moving into if i stayed here oh that looks like a lot of stuff so this is all the stuff i have to take plus i need to pack up this little area over here that was going to be like my behind my desk area so nothing's in there but just a little bit of stuff back there oh my gosh okay and this all of this all of this all of that i think some of the stuff is curriculum stuff um nope that's all mine um this is curriculum curriculum curriculum mine awesome nothing mine curriculum nothing awesome and mine so i've definitely got my work cut out for me one thing that i'm thinking too is that i do have the u-haul here but i have my car like not that far away so i could go park the u-haul over there bring my car back fill up my car that way i might not need to make a second trip at the u-haul i don't know we'll see i'm definitely going to start with all the books that's the heaviest biggest thing that i have over there so i hate this i just want it to be two weeks from now already okay back to work okay pausing for a second to take a break because i am tired and burnt out and ready to go home even though i'm not at all close to being home um i'm actually pretty close to being done here although now that i'm looking at all this stuff it doesn't feel like it let me show you so what you're looking at is the only stuff i have left to take so this stuff is all going to come to the u-haul right now but then those two everything over here can be consolidated because all of these are my books from my library and they're still in their boxes so i was thinking i could save myself space if i need to i'm gonna put the other stuff away first but if i need to i'll just take all the books out of their boxes and then put them in the box without like the the colorful boxes i mean if i have space in the u-haul to just throw them in there like this i will because i would rather not have to do that right now but we'll see so i emptied these all out yay and then all of my old curriculum stuff is over here i'm gonna organize it a little better for the librarian but that's all of our manipulatives supplementals little readers um actual curriculum everything so that was a nice big chunk that i could take away that i didn't have to take with me but i am exhausted okay it's 1 59 right now i want to be out of here no later than three o'clock which i think is doable let's let's get this going girl now i'm gonna go get some food i have an hour and a half ish drive to my school i may or may not be taking stuff to my school today i don't know i i want to just knock it all out today oh my god i thought there was an earthquake goes to the ac turning on what i really want to do is finish this go eat go to my school just take everything into my classroom like not touch anything unpack anything take the u-haul back here tonight because it's not a one-way u-haul and my car's out here so drop off the u-haul and then go home but that's gonna be like i don't even know how long of a day that would be i can't even process what i got i don't know i'll see let's just let's keep going let's keep going i need food all right so this is how much room we've got right now i restocked everything up there as crazy as it looks it's all like snug in there so it's not gonna fall out hopefully if the bulbs break i just don't even really care anymore i've got like stuff tucked into nooks and crannies everywhere i can do this all right we did it good thing i liked playing tetris as a kid didn't think it was all gonna fit but it did all right let's go also look at the time 2 46 very proud of myself all right i finally got some food an upside down drizzy bag sandwich and we are ready to hit the road my friends got an hour and a half drive let's go okay people we made it i'm just waiting for the janitor to come unlock the gate for me i did not crash the u-haul yet i mean i still have to drive back to go get my car so still hope just kidding what trying to muster up some energy right now is five o'clock gotta unpack this beast and then mob back the hour and a half and then an hour and a half back so it's gonna be a long night it's been a long day i'm feeling good though i'm excited i get to get all my stuff my new classroom and then tomorrow gets working live oh yeah okay let's go what should i be doing got some help all right people we made it to the new room i've got all my stuff in here thank you to our night custodian for literally helping me unload the entire thing in less than 45 minutes and it took me like four hours to load everything by myself and i was like oh my gosh i have such a long night out of me and it's done so it is 5 58. here's what i'm thinking i've got all these boxes over here and most of them are books and then the majority of the rest of them are those boxes from my cabinets of like all the supplies and stuff so what i was thinking is i could just take like 30 minutes really quick and just unpack the supplies into those cabinets that way tomorrow when i get here i don't have such a big old mess i already have all that stuff over there so i feel like it'd be too overwhelming if i was trying to do anything with everything in here like this and mind you it's tuesday i have to have all this done by sunday at the latest we come back on monday and i'd rather not spend my entire rest of the week here so i think that's what i'm gonna do [Music] oh [Music] uh [Music] bye [Music] all right friends this is what we've got so far none of it is organized or put where it should be but i just got a couple things unboxed put the paper over here too so i'm i'm gonna obviously need to move like the copy paper and all that stuff over here but that was actually five whole boxes of stuff made a little dent just gonna leave the rest of this for tomorrow so just kind of thinking out loud right now it's about six what time is it it's 6 40. so i need to leave right now so i can make it home before like 10. tomorrow my top priority is getting everything put away hopefully if these are the desks and chairs that i'm gonna be using or the tables and chairs i hope they're really nice i like them and these seats they go up and down and they swivel yeah i love those i know a lot of teachers probably wouldn't like the swivel aspect but i do actually we'll talk about that later but how to make like the swiveling and stuff not an issue but so tomorrow top priority getting everything put away figuring out a layout and then kind of mapping out what i want to do with the walls but i kind of feel like too i want to make sure that i have everything for the first week mapped out that way that scared me i don't know whatever i'm too tired to care if anyone comes and gets me right now i kind of want to plan for the first week instead of spending a lot of time on like figuring out what the room is going to look like but i do feel like that is like an important part too obviously not the most important part but i want to make sure my room is like ready to go when the kids get here does every board need to be full and everything need to look perfect no obviously that's not the most important part but it is important to me to make sure that when my kids come in on the first day their first impression is like oh my gosh i'm so excited that this is my classroom i do have new teacher orientation tomorrow from 8 00 to 11 30 so i'll come over here after that i'm not gonna have a full day but that's okay i have all day thursday until 2 30 which is when i have another new teacher benefits orientation um all day friday all day saturday all day sunday and then monday tuesday wednesday are teacher work days i don't know what that means for my new district i don't know if that's like work day like we have trainings and meetings and stuff or if that means like time to work in our classroom it was kind of a mix of both in my last district so we'll see i'll keep you posted but either way i'm just feeling so happy i know that this vlog i was kind of probably like most of the time like i'm stressed it's hot i'm tired but i'm excited i'm very happy to be here i just know that i'm in the right place and i can't believe this is my classroom like this is my beautiful classroom look at these windows like are you kidding me are you kidding me everyone here is so freaking nice too like every person i've come in contact with principal custodian secretary teachers like everybody has been just like overwhelmingly kind and supportive and welcoming and just nothing but good vibes i'm just so excited yay i am gonna get out of here i will see you guys very soon i am so excited to take you guys along on this journey of a new grade level a new school a new district
