Summer Series Introduction

Image
By
Hello blogging world. It's been a little while since I've posted here on my blogspot. I made the switch over to my own hosted website on wordpress, but after much consideration, decided to come back to blogger. My reasons for coming back are the fact that I was spending a little over $200 a year on a blog that I wasn't updating as much as I'd like. I do plan on coming back to blog more frequently, but most of my content is over on YouTube now. This blog will serve as an additional resource to go along with my YouTube videos.

With that said I would love to introduce my Summer Series to you. I know that as teachers we are drained and tired from the school year we just finished. Something strange happens on the first day of summer vacation though. After you finish binge watching Netflix in your pajamas most of the day, you realize that you have a bit of motivation for the next school year starting to sneak up on you. You may not be quite ready to see the back to school sales start or even want to think about lesson planning, but you wouldn't mind starting to brainstorm about next year. That's where my Summer Series comes in!

I have the whole month of June planned and ready to go. I will be releasing a new video Monday-Thursday with Friday being reserved for a live chat. Each week there will be a theme and the videos, as well as the live chat for that week will revolve around the theme. The schedule for those videos is as follows...

 Prepping for the Upcoming School Year
  • June 5th- What to Do Before the Current School Year Ends
  • June 6th- Summer Prep
  • June 7th- Summer Professional Development
  • June 8th- Back to School Prep
  • June 9th- Live Chat on YouTube at 5:00 MST
Classroom Management
  • June 12th- Classroom Management Basics
  • June 13th- Behavior Problems
  • June 14th- Engagement Strategies
  • June 15th- Building Classroom Community
  • June 16th- Live Chat on YouTube at 5:00 MST
Classroom Setup
  • June 19th- Physical Space
  • June 20th- Flexible Seating
  • June 21st- Classroom Theme
  • June 22nd- Substitute Plans
  • June 23rd- Live Chat on YouTube at 5:00 MST
Teacher Wellness
  • June 26th- Daily Schedule and Routines
  • June 27th- Teacher Stress
  • June 28th- Home Away From Home
  • June 29th- Comparisons
  • June 30th- Live Chat on YouTube at 5:00 MST
As you can see, June is going to be a busy month over on my YouTube channel. I go back to work at the beginning of August and since I will be teaching summer school all June, I plan on taking a break in July to rest and rejuvenate to prepare for the upcoming school year. I know some of you are already on summer break and these videos will be released over your first month of summer. Other teachers may not get out until the end of June, making July the perfect time to catch up and maybe even start planning for your school year.

Now of course, it wouldn't be a Jennuine Teaching blog post without a video introducing you to my Summer Series. So for those of you who prefer videos, this one's for you!!

Plan With Me Sunday Blog Hop

By
Welcome to Plan With Me Sundays Blog Hop! This is my first time participating and I am so excited! I have been a planner all of my life and I absolutely love writing things down and organizing my life. This week I wanted to link up with Keeping up with Mrs. Harris and Kreative in Kindergarten because I love looking at other people's planners. Before I share with you my planner(s) I just want to let you know that I have THREE, yes three. One is my personal planner with my every day to do lists, chores, appointments, etc. My second is my business planner. I use this to organize things for work, my TpT store and blog, as well as my Etsy. The third planner is my Erin Condren teaching planner. I will not be sharing that planner this week, but you can learn all about it HERE . I will be sharing two of my planners here with you today. The first is my business planner. It is an Erin Condren planner in the vertical layout. I love this layout because it is broken down into thre...

Team Member Gifts

By
Happy Monday! Today is my last day of summer vacation. I have meetings this week, but I am going in today to have a team meeting with my wonderful kindergarten team. This year I am team lead and I wanted to share my appreciation with some beginning of the year gifts. Teaching all day can be tiring and at the end of the day it's not unusual for some of us to forget to drink water. I have two HUGE water cups that I bring to work every day, but it never hurts to have more. I added vinyl to these mason jar cups for my team mates. Hopefully we will all stay hydrated this school year. The next part of their gift are some goodies from my favorite place... Target!! I just packaged up some of my favorite dollar spot finds and closed it up with some washi tape. This past week I went into my classroom and set everything up. I wanted to be able to relax this week and focus on lesson planning this week. I have been creating custom stickers for my Erin Condren lesson planner and I ha...

3-2-1 Teacher Bio {Weekend Warriors}

By
I am linking up with Weekend Warriors to let you know a little bit about myself. I love getting to know other teachers and thought this would be a fun way to do it.   1. I love being a teacher and I have wanted to be one every since I was a little girl. I even turned my closet into a classroom and taught my sister and gave her homework to do. Even when she was done playing with me I would continue to play teacher by myself and my Barbies. If you peak into my classroom I am always with my students. I am either sitting on the floor with them reading a story, sitting at their tables during math time, and even dancing during Go Noodle with them. I love my job and being able to be a kid at heart 7 hours a day is pretty awesome!! 2.  I absolutely love center time. I love making and creating fun and engaging centers for my students and this year I am even going to add an additional math center time. This is a time where my students get to unwind a little, have some fun, ...
