- Hey guys! I decided to do a day in the life of a teacher video. I am going to take you guys with me and give you a small play by play of what happens within a typical day of a kindergarten teacher. You will get an idea of my schedule and what I do on my down time while students are away.

Wow Kindergarten has really changed a lot in 20 years. This looks more like a 1st or 2nd grade classroom to me. When I was in Kindergarten we had play corners (dolls, blocks, dress-up, etc) and it just seems like so much more is expected of 5 year olds academically nowadays.
ConcreteAngelx3 same my classroom had a play kitchen
I'm a preschool teacher and I can attest to this. Preschool is now more like kindergarten and kindergarten jumps right into core subjects.
I like it
I have been in a public kindergarten class as a preservice teacher and the students do not have the fun this video shows
This is a public classroom. 🤗 We learned a lot and had a lot of fun 🥰
This was the best "Day in the life of a teacher" video that I've seen! I'm 21 and just recently decided that teaching is what I want to do in life and your videos make me so excited to teach!!
+Vi Conley That is great. I wish you all the best!
+The Lettered Classroom you sound like a very nice teacher
SAME
teacher day kab hota hy sirf comments date hoo
teacher day kab hota hy sirf comments date hoo
i like when you get the kids together and talk about any problems that are going on. its a good way for them to be open and know they are in a safe space.
I want to thank you for not only putting up this video but all your other videos. Currently I'm a senior in High School and will be entering into a Bachelor of Arts in September. In the past few months or so I've been thinking about the future and suddenly my being an Elementary School teacher really just clicked into place and I suddenly realized what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. Seeing these types of videos is just solidifying this plan and helps me see just what I could be doing after University, which is extremely helpful.
That's great to hear! Good luck in school and I wish you the best!!
The Lettered Classroom I love ya
Imogen Lee same with me! I'm currently in my first year of college for pre-nursing, but I feel like it isn't for me. Being an elementary teacher is what I feel in my heart is what I want to do! 😊
I love you I'm in middle school but you help me from playing school😘😘😘😘
Hey girl! I'm actually in nursing school right now, getting my bachelor's degree, and I'm a junior. It took me this long to realize that nursing really isn't for me, and so in the fall I'll be pursuing a degree in elementary education. My advice is to pursue what feels right to you. I actually decided to take the leap after reading an article written by a nurse that was documenting advice from patients that were on there death bed, and one of them said that you don't want to be 92 and wondering 'what if'. That was it for me, I knew I was making the right choice. I want to be a teacher until the day they tell me I'm too old to keep up! Good luck to you!
this video really makes me miss elementary school❤️
Rianna Smith same
I'm in grade 4
Rianna Smith I liked your vidoes
Yeah
Alyssa Wolhar I am too😺🙀👍🏾
I just stared my freshman year of college as an elementary education major. This makes me excited!
+Vivian Jones - :) You will love it!
Same!! I wish I could just snap my fingers and be done with college so I can be a teacher right now lol.
Cadence Captures Girl me too!!! I'm so excited lol
Erenee sohool and my wife is the Christmas card 💳
Vivian Jones You're gonna love it once you start doing field observations and student teaching I'm in my junior year right now and just started field observations :)
I'm in the 7th grade about to go in the 8th grade and I literally started laughing when you talked about the diet coke because every single teacher I have had always drinks diet coke lol
Niya Simmer Same
Niya Simmer ikr my teacher is OBSESSED with Diet Coke he has this huge thing and he drinks like all of it in one day
Am I going to be the only teacher who will be obsessed with dr pepper
Niya Simmer I had one teacher that loved Diet Coke/Coke and another that liked Pepsi and one that loved Dr Pepper.
Gene C. is that an American thing or something? all my teachers drank water😂
I will be a preschool teacher assistant this year and I have to say it's just a blessing bring around children 💓
+Sandra Hernandez -Yes! It can be a very rewarding career. I LOVE it! I hope you continue to follow your passion.
Sandra Hernandez I teach preschool and it is so much fun!
Dont forget the key step...
...Tying shoes!😂
If i had a child , i'd choose you to be his/her teacher .. you are great & organized . How many hours per day do you work / teach ?
MOZN same
I am so glad that I found your channel. I have been teaching adult learners, but I am really passionate about teaching children. This channel has been affirmation of how much I would enjoy teaching elementary. Thanks for inspiring me to pursue my dreams.
What is a counting jar?
I wish I was in kindergarten again ._.
same, thats when life was good.
Same i hate 5th grade
right? It was so simple then :(
and i thought teaching Kindergarten would be a walk in the park ! It must be so exhausting
:) Teaching is not 'easy' , but if you have the passion it is extremely rewarding! :) I can't see myself doing anything else anymore!
Thank you for making this! I loved getting to see a day in the life of a teacher. I'm currently student teaching right now!
+raquelrocksful I was hoping this would be beneficial to watch. I remember being a student teacher and you are never fully prepared for the teaching life. Glad you liked it!
This woman is making teaching into a science.
I've been following your videos for about a year now I love them! I just found out I'm moving from 2nd grade to Kinder next year and I couldn't be more excited! Thank you for making all of these videos! You're such an inspiration to me!!!
Another great video! I would love to see a video discussing teaching routines at the beginning of the year. You can really tell that your children know what to expect.
I have it on my Summer List!
The Lettered Classroom economic
I absolutely loved this video! It was so interesting to see how you lay out your day and it seems like it really works for you! I love how much small group time you plan in your day. I would love to see a video of how you differentiate in your classroom as well as your classroom management philosophy!
+Julia Salvador Julia! You are always commenting and I totally love and appreciate you! Yes, small groups play a huge role in my room and I feel like my kids behave better when I am meeting with small groups. I have written that down and will get it in. Thank you.
I'm 27 and have been teaching English abroad for 3 years. I graduated with my BA in 2016 (unrelated to teaching) and now I've been considered becoming a kindy teacher for the past 2 years. Thanks for this vid.
I am a week away from finishing my teacher education program and this video gets me super excited to work! :) I love how organized you are with everything
I can only hope my daughter will have a teacher like you....you're awesome...
I'm a trainee teacher from the UK, your videos are so valuable to me, I'm collating them along with other ideas I have magpied from all my placement schools over the years, in a big folder that I can go to when I finally get my own class next year!! Thank you so much for these videos they're invaluable!! But you start so so early in your school, I take my hat off to you!
You are so sweet. Thank you!
I love this video, being a teacher for the young souls needs people like you. very patient and smart. keep it up.
I loved seeing how enriching your program was for your students! I work as a teacher in Canada, and they have recently introduced a play-based approach to learning in kindergarten. Some teachers unfortunately take this as having students just play all day with very little direction or vague centers. This leads to a lot of behavior issues and low reading and writing skills going into grade 1. Watching your video made me nostalgic for the time when kindergarten was about learning and not glorified day care! Please keep up your amazing work :)
I love your way of teaching. You are very caring!
Thank you so much!
I know!!!!
I have had my dream of caring for children at my own daycare since I was little, and in a couple days, I will be starting training for the profession.
I really love you and your channel :) You are a great teacher and an inspiration to me
Congrats!❤️
Tashirah Lucas Thank you!! :)
Mariah Richardson wish you the best of luck reach for the stars
Taskmina Sung Aww, thank you! I will try my very best^^
Mariah Richardson your very welcome good luck and do your best
This was so different to watch! I loved this. Love how organized you are and how bright your room is!
Thank you so much for posting this video (as well as other videos). You have no idea how helpful they are!
I wish my sons teacher was this hands on!
Great video, looking to going into primary school
I know im late to this but I just wanted to say I love this video. Growing up I always wanted to be a teacher and one day looked up day in the life of a teacher. This was by far the best video I found and still come back and watch this video a ton. I also watch pocket full of primary and when y’all collaborated I lost my mind😂
I love this! I think it's awesome that you're kids work a lot in small groups and are so independent during those times. I'm also amazed at how you squeeze in so many things throughout the day, especially assessments. You are a super teacher! You're like my virtual mentor. Thank you for always posting quality content and videos!
+Wileen Hiinani You are so very sweet. I love sharing everything that I have learned and am learning right now! I feel like it makes me a better teacher to connect with you all and be able to collaborate.
Loved this! Thank you for sharing
This video was so satisfying!
Georgia Skittles ?
As a 2nd grade teacher it is really insightful to see what kids are capable of in kindergarten. I thoroughly enjoyed this video and learned a lot!
I am deeply amazed by how you could continue assessing your pupils despite of the busy day. I'd like to know more of your teaching strategies, techniques, behavior modification methods, and classroom management. I look forward to your new videos. Thank you and have a nice day!
Great video, I teach high school and your students would scare me. Love your organization. Thumbs up and a share
Omg yess I really wanna be a teacher for elementary when I grow up! Next year I will be entering highschool
love the routine and structure of your classroom, it makes it so much better for the students and the teacher!
It's amazing seeing how many resources and extra space some schools have. You could fit 3 of our classrooms into her classroom with 30 kids (pre covid) in them. This classroom is wonderful
You are amazing!
Teaching is HARD WORK. I have taught many different age ranges but I have to say, kindergarten ('nursery' here in the UK) is a wonderful age to teach (but very challenging). Good luck to all new teachers.
Kindergarten is the equivalent of year one in the uk
fantastic teacher, such a well-prepared teacher
Thanks for the video. I have taught secondary for over a decade, but I've recently accepted a 5th grade elementary school position. This video (and my experience) has made me have a new level of appreciation for K teachers.
I have always wanted to be a elementary school teacher!💗especially either preschool kinder or first grade✨
OMG it seems like a long day! Great video btw! I really enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for showing these videos, it has inspired me to become a teacher. Keep it up! I'm so excited!
Great Stuff! I love the "Fluffing Pillows". I did the same thing. I'm retired, taught 1-5th grades and spend 8 years in admin. LOVE LOVE the routine!
I am a Senior in college and I am an Elementary Education major. I start student teaching next month in January! I am very much looking forward to it, but I am nervous as well. I really enjoyed this video!
Christian Blankenship how did it go?
I just found your channel and I love it! It is so inspiring! I look forward to see more videos :)
Love from Sweden :)
The way you teach the children is great. The organization of your class is awesome. I love it
Thank you so much, Jasmine! It really helps make everything move along smoothly!
Appreciatable your hard work devoted
What time do you work to? How many hours do you sleep a day?
I'm a teacher myself and I once asked you on twitter a question using the hashtag but didn't get your answer to my question haha. I still have loads of questions to ask you because I love your videos and I love and enjoy watching them. They have inspired me and motivated me and made me think that teaching is one of the fantastic and rewarding jobs.
I am in college i wanna work as an Teacher i live in Connectict and my school i work at is awesome the teachers are fanstastic
Wow I'm impressed with how organized you are and your classroom management from what all I could see. You seemed so prepared and confident. Really enjoyed watching this and hoping I can take some things I saw in this video with me and use it in my classroom.
I love your video! I watched it with my 6 year old daughter who wants to be a kindergarten teacher. She enjoyed it immensely. Keep up the good work!!!
I love your videos! Very insightful on what to expect! Im actually in college right now and work with pre-schoolers! My goal is to be a kindergarten teacher as well! It's scary to think about it though....having the classroom and having to teach the children myself, did you ever feel this way when you started as a teacher?
ok
That is totally normal! I am in my first year of teaching kindergarten right now, and I still get nervous sometimes!
How do you prepare all these materials?? This is so amazing!
Excellent so much great Information on organizing, lesson ideas, etc. You're classroom looks so colorful and you have so much heart.
me encantó el video gracias por tu tiempo para compartir
most satisfying job ever......😘😍
huge respect to the people who shape the future........
+Melvin s joseph - 👏👏 Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for saying this, I work in a Montessori and people mostly take it as "just minding kids", but we are doing so much work with kids and we deserve respect.
So right now I am in 7th grade. I love this video so much. It has made really and I mean REALLY want to be a teacher! So thank you for that. Have an amazing 😉 day.
+Emma Keys - Yayy!! I hope you love it as much as I do!
Good teacher
Emma Keys i do too
You are an amazing teacher, God bless you for all of your hard work. 👍👍👍👍👍
U r doing a great video on helping people who want learn what a primary school teacher's work looks like, well done!!!
I love that your teaching and assessment go hand in hand
Yes! Very important! Thank you for watching!
When i was in kindergarten all we did was play, eat, nap, and sing ABCs XD
This is amazing! Definitely beneficial for me as a student teacher getting ready to finally be on my own. You're a true inspiration, those kids are lucky to have you. Would love more videos just like this one :)
You’re a great teacher!
7:55 Doesn’t that look like the room of the vine when the teacher trips over the whiteboard and lands face first on the floor, or is it just me again?!🤨🤔
Parneet Kaur it does
I wish I could hit the thumbs up button more than once👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
+lisa Loucee you are so sweet!!! I honestly didn't think this video would come that great. I am so happy you enjoyed it.
This is such a good video! Its so interesting to see the difference between your school day and the school days here in the UK!
Thank you! This was very helpful to watch as a beginning teacher!
You should smile more 😃
You seem very serious.
Your classroom looks awesome. I taught k for 30 years.
Concert mom 180 Betsy Persiano she’s teaching future nobel prize winners and you’re worried about her smiling 🤔
what is the 31 folder system?
Fantastic video it's so interesting to see the similarities & differences between how you approach teaching young children in America to how we do in the UK. I can see you are very caring and thoughful about each child, Very inspiring!
Ohmygosh! This video is inspiring! Im currently in the final year of my early childhood degree and this video just puts everything in perspective in terms of applying our knowledge and how it looks like! your 31 day system looks fascinating! I cant wait to check that out! thanks for the video
As a teacher from the UK I find your videos so fascinating! I love seeing how different it is across the pond! Keep up the great work!
You are so professional! I'm thinking of going back to get a teaching degree to teach young learners.
Yay! I hope you enjoy my other videos as well! Thanks for the kind words.
beautifulwhitecat xh CDN if
I m so excited to see the video. thank you.
you are so organized I love it!
Hi there! I'm about to be a junior in high school, but I'm thinking about majoring in elementary education in college. I've gotten a lot of negative feedback about being a teacher, especially from teachers themselves, and it's very discouraging. Do you have any feedback or tips?
Don't let anyone discourage you. Teaching is a calling, and if you have that calling you should absolutely become a teacher. The career choice will have its challenges, many of which you will have no control over (politicians deciding what's best for kids when they have never stepped foot in a classroom, curriculums, pacing guides, etc.), but the rewards HIGHLY outweigh those challenges. Teaching is an amazing profession. The feeling you get when a student "gets it" for the first time, or you see that light bulb go off can't be beat. If it's your dream...go for it, or at least explore it. Good luck! I have taught 2nd grade for 3 years. It is the BEST.
Hey girl! I definitely understand where you're coming from. I've wanted to be a kindergarten teacher since my sophomore year in high school. I would always get told that I should set my goals higher and that it doesn't pay well. The comment that really upset me was when people would say "you really want to take care of screaming kids all day?" It made me so mad. But seriously girlie, don't let it discourage you. I'm now an elementary education major at Chapman University and I am so excited to finally be following my dreams. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't accomplish your goals. I believe in you. ❤️ Much love!
Hi sorry I don't have any advice but I just wanted to say I'm about to be a junior too and I'm considering being an elementary teacher too :)
Caitlin Rose yes! I just graduated in May & got my very first classroom in August! It's a lot of work but has always been a dream of mine & that outweighs all the "negativity" from ppl in a heartbeat. I love teaching
erikagirl552 That is so comforting to hear. Congrats on all you've accomplished and are continuing to accomplish! I can't wait to get to that point, but for now I'm enjoying every second of the time I get to spend here studying what I love to do. I wish you all the best!
Where is your tan bag from in this video? With the brown leather straps? Amazing video :) I watched this a few months ago but i was just watching again lol
that's a longchamp bag
I'm a teacher in the UK (Upper/secondary school so 11-18 year olds) and you definitely have it a lot more difficult than us, certainly as a secondary teacher! We aren't expected to buy our own resources, clean our own rooms (although if it is VERY messy then we usually will because we don't want to leave it all for the cleaners), and our school day is from 8.50 to 3.30 so not as long as you either. This was a very insightful video, great work!
I'm in AL, too!!! I will be a senior in college in the fall. I also want to teach kindergarten. I've been having thoughts like, "What if I am a bad teacher? What if..." I always love to watch these videos to gain my confidence back up!
I love this video!! I've always wanted to be a teacher, but I'm currently in high school for law. lately I've been noticing that law isn't for me, and this video really gave me a feel of how teachers work. i will probably be going to college for teaching now, it just seems to be a better fit for me personally :)
The into had me like " Logan u r my hero , u make me laugh..."
You are amazingly organized!
This is a wonderful video. I'm in high school 10th grade and wanting to be a 2nd grade teacher. Even though the grade is different it's nice to see what goes on in a classroom and how to be a good teacher. Thank you for the video
announcments at 7:50?what time do they have these kids up???
And how long is the school day!?
DrumStick IKR I'm in high school and our announcements don't start until 7:30.
COLLIN R 7:15 was when our late bell and announcements began.
In the school I teach at in the UK, the children don't get in to school until 8:55am!
i'm in high school and my school day doesn't start till 7:50 😂
So do you ask parents to allow kids to be filmed? Thanks for the videos I love it!
I know this was uploaded a while ago, but I want to thank you for uploading this. I am currently a student teacher and I was placed in all virtual classrooms, so I was not able to get hands on experience in the classroom before graduating. This helped so much to learn what to expect!
Thank you for sharing!
My class does Go Noddle and we're in 3rd Grade so everyone is standing and looking at people who are dancing and giggling
+My life as Katie - I hope you are one of the ones dancing. I know I would be!
My life as Katie same I'm in 2nd grade do u go to westview school cuz I do
The Lettered Classroom I dance and are class do JustDance2017 in gym I LOVE THAT
Yea 5th is worst
Claire Patterson Yep I hate 5th
Hey just out of curiosity, are you allowed to film your kids and put them on CZcams?
A lot of schools have the parents sign social medics release forms that allow photos or videos
Just wanted to say: I'm working on getting my Teaching Certification in Texas and my course had me watch this video and part of my training. I've watching about 17 hours worth of classroom observations at this point and this was probably the most useful. I've now subscribed, and plan to watch more of videos to figure out your organization magic.
I homeschool my 5 year old and I admire your love and patience with so many little ones ❤ 🖍 📚
I see how your class has like 10-15 children. I wish I had something like that. Classes here have a minimum of 20 and most likely you have 25 to 30 or even more. Looks like you're doing a great job by the way!
+MrSarcism - I had 24 student that year 😉
The Lettered Classroom oh my bad! I only saw 10/15 children at a time. My bad to jumping to conclusions too quickly. I'm going to older children, but I have hugh respect for teachers like you. The creativity you need is incredible. Great to upload a video like this.
At 12:07 this little kid walks up and starts touching stuff and shes like "go sit down" 😭😭😭
I am writing far from where you teach and I literally love your teaching style, students and class order. I've been teaching teenagers for 10 years and now I admire your class.
+Dincer Aydic Thank you so much. This was such a great comment!
