[Music] so [Music] so [Music] so far today i have this done i got my lights hung and then i have these boards up still trying to figure out what to put here and on this one and i'm so sad because that's literally all i have left like that's it so i don't think i'm gonna go by i think i might just put something there and then i have all of this still to go through so let me just talk to you real quick about my calendar this is the one i got for five dollars at michael's and all of these are from freckles and kendra's teachers pay teacher store and this basically up with thumbtacks and just switched it so i can take it off and flip to the next day whoops i'll fix that here in a second and then in this thing i have all of my like extra [Music] when i left i basically threw all my supplies in here so i'm going to go through and organize them into these tubs and then put them back up into my cabinet [Music] just a little update so far i have all of this done and i have some of my stuff over here hooked up and now i'm getting ready to hang these signs [Music] it's not a game [Music] it has been a while since i have updated y'all i actually got a lot done i hung my books up here a couple of things around the room and now i'm getting ready to go through my read-alouds and organize those and get them like nice and organizing bins for like holidays and seasons and then i'm gonna get my kids books together which i know they're probably not gonna be checking them out but i wanna go ahead and get that together and i think it is about noon so i've got three more hours so hopefully i can get a lot more done today and get it cleaned up and i'll show you it here in a little bit i got all my books up here this is all i have for kindergarten-ish all of these are going to put their picture in here this is going to be their own individual book bin that they will have so they're just stuff's not touching others and they can take it to their seat and put it back up i have my lights hung around my board my colors up there and i'm still working on and just cleaning up basically what i'm going to disappoint in the room i'm just throwing stuff trash away that i have made throughout the day and once the trash is picked up i'm going to kind of get a good get it out of the room and get a good clear picture of what the room is looking like at this point so we're getting there i'm so tired i need caffeine in the worst way right now but i'm going to get the room cleaned up and then i don't know what i'm going to do [Music] next [Music] i got so much done today i literally have worked eight two three really before eight to three um my room is done for today i'm gonna come back tomorrow all the books that were on the table are organized and let me show you for all those books what i did is i put them by like level so that took like an hour and then i got my guided reading center or small group table done there's like my area my teacher station and then i got some more to tomorrow and then i'm going to do a full room tour to show you everything but right here what i'm going to do is i'm going to buy little bins and each kid's going to have their own bin with their manipulatives and everything in it so i'll show you that whenever i get that and i'm supposed to be getting a whiteboard right here for my learning targets and that's a wrap for today welcome back we are on day two of getting my classroom together i don't have a whole lot to do today but i'm just gonna kind of wrap you around and show you basically what i'm getting done today i do have a lot of training to say like five hours worth almost out of me being here from eight to three so i don't get a lot done today but i got a lot done yesterday and that's fine and i'm going to continue to work throughout the week but here is day [Music] two [Music] [Music] [Music] hands off i'm going to put these little bins in here for each of their own supplies so in here i'm going to have like manipu math manipulatives anything they'll need for learning we have like a new phonics thing and there you have the paraphonics i'm gonna put those in there as well and i'm gonna put little labels on here as well [Music] [Music] [Music] and i went ahead and started making their little mouth tool kit so far i have 3d shapes two sets of um the unifix cubes a excel marker base 10 which worth 20 and then i have a thing of play-doh and i also have some more stuff i'm going to put in here i'm just kind of getting the layout to see what i need to buy and what i need more of so basically i'm going to make each student their own and it's going to go in here their little cubby and put their name on it it's gonna be their little tool kit so there is that i'm still working on that i got all the names off so i got all my i got these cute little signs somewhere off of teachers my teachers i don't know where but if i can find i will link them in my bathroom i just put this cute little banner a little sign about washing hands and bulletin board up so i'm gonna go ahead and close this basically today i didn't have a whole lot to do because i did a whole lot of it yesterday i will be doing a room tour soon but and about 12 o'clock i have a training from 12 to 3 and that's basically gonna wrap up my day today so [Music] [Music] [Music] i got these cute little signs somewhere off of teachers my teachers i don't know where but if i can find i will link them in my bathroom i just put this cute little banner and a little sign about washing hands and bulletin board up so i'm gonna go ahead and close this basically today i didn't have a whole lot to do because i did a whole lot of it yesterday i will be doing a room tour soon but so with the setup i have tables in my room and i have three chairs per table now this is what the custodian set up as six feet apart or like the mandates were spacing out in the classroom so i have and then these little tables back here i have a set of two and over here i have a set of two that sets four and the rest are all three so right now i'm set up for a class of 21 and i can use my um back table if it's necessary but for just the tables alone in that little desk i have 21 and i think that'll be okay i don't think we'll have any more than that and i'm trying to figure out how to forgotten stations what i'm going to use these for they might be like mailboxes like i said that earlier i can't remember my brain is buzz this is just some leftover activities that's a lot teacher left that i'm going to try to um use this year i don't know how but i'm trying to figure out what i'm going to do with these and besides that i think i'm good i have curtains to put up let me show you the curtains real quick curtains to put up down here my friend made i'm not going to put any on the mirror down the window but here are my curtains that's not the car that's extra fabric here are my curtains that she made me someone said to use scotchgard on them before i do that and they are beautiful so i'm gonna put velcro right here and the other piece of velcro and they're going to cover up each one of these little cubbies down here so that's on my to-do list and i did put that border up earlier and i think i'm going to put a schedule there in the midst of all of this like getting my room together i do want to say that i think this is one of my favorite rooms i've ever gotten together it's just so cute and colorful and everything's just so like little like i'm sitting in the smallest chair ever and i'm five like almost ten so it's so weird seeing everything like super short my counters are super short but i'm really excited and i'm trying to leave some blank space around the room because i know i'm gonna fill it up later and uh i really hope that we get to stay in school we're doing a lot of virtual trainings right now to where they are showing us uh like how to teach virtually because even if we are in school they're wanting us to use their computers more and less papers but they cut the copies back is what they've told me and um basically every kid's going to have a computer they're going to bring to and from school every day so i'm trying to think of like how i'm going to have them store those and making sure they're charged we only have so many outlets in here i don't have like a cart for the computers it's like a laptop and they get a charger so trying to figure that out as well just the logistics of how everything's going to work and i feel okay right now about it i do not know i need to look into more of the curriculum side of the kindergarten standards but room wise i think i'm good i do need to purchase a couple of things i need to get some more bins for my math tool kits and you get that velcro and i think that's it my brain's like fogged i just had a three hour training i'm about to go home as soon as i get done filming this but i do just want to thank y'all and i want to let you know that videos might be once a week or twice a week i know i said before it's probably going to go back to once but we will see i really want to have a really good videos for y'all have quality over quantity of videos if there's anything specific that you want to see please let me know in the comments below and i'm going to go ahead and end this vlog here make sure you give this video a thumbs up
