These videos are literally the best out there! You know how to make a 15 minute setup video seem so short and an effective use of everyones time! I literally take so much inspiration from your videos and my classroom is looking soooo nice these last couple of years. Creating piles is literally the best thing - you dont know how good it is until you try it. I make piles and my organisation abilities have multiplied!

I am not a teacher. Nor am I learning to be a teacher. I just enjoy watching as people design spaces. I particularly love watching teacher decorating their classrooms lol. I love your energy

I am not a teacher but I run a group home and some of your tips I have used daily

We need a week just to clean the dirt, dust and droppings everywhere!!!! It's crazy 🤪

Hi there! I love watching your videos. I’m a 2nd-year music teacher. I’ve learned so much from your videos on how to organize. Specifically, I admire how everything is labeled. It simplifies life by 1,000 fold. 😍

I have been teaching since 2006 but I did different type of teaching like k-2 reading tutor, avid tutor grade 7-12, preschool teacher, sped teacher k-5 & grade 7-8, and elementary school counselor. For the past 2 yours I have been the resource teacher for grade k-5 at my favorite elementary school. What inspire me to watch your videos are how you set up your classroom and how you do ELA and math stations because I am doing station rotations this school year. I watch your ELA and math stations at least 10x. 😬

This will be my 37th year teaching. I teach Kindergarten, not all 37 years were in Kindergarten.

I have been teaching 25 years. I currently teach Y6 (10 and 11 year olds) but I’ve taught every primary year group from YR to Y6 - which is 4 to 11 year olds. I’m from England. You are my favourite KZreadr!

I’ve been teaching 23 years (15 in first grade and 7 in second grade)! In my last few years, I’m finally organizing with storage bins, black library bins, etc. Last year, I did a massive purge of my hoard. I didn’t know I accumulated so many centers, books, handouts, etc I simply stopped using. So now I’m storing my essentials in storage bins.

I missed that music! Thanks for bringing it back! I'm starting my 4th year teaching and I watch (and rewatch) your videos every year for inspiration! Thanks for bringing us along!

I'm Andy Walker and I live and teach in the ATL. This is my 22nd year and I teach EIP (Early Intervention Program) to students in grades K thru 3rd. I love it!! I also love following you on all your platforms!! Your creativity and realness is so refreshing!! Keep being awesome!!

Love your organization! I’m a second grade teacher and in my 13th year, Gen ed., ESE, and Interventionist, all this year sompray for me! With this teacher shortage we are all going to work harder than ever! Ok, you’ve inspired me to get back to my classroom to get ready for Open house Monday!

I love your classroom setup series. I started watching when you were teaching 3rd grade. I have been teaching for 6 years and Ive done 1st grade, 3rd grade and now Preschool. So looking forward to the next video!

This is my 30th year as an elementary school teacher. I will be teaching fourth grade this year. Most school school cleaning crews will clean the carpets and wax the floors and rarely dust or clean shelves.

I am a first year teacher and I will be teaching 4th grade!! I have been watching you since I started university and I can't wait to get in my classroom to start organizing my stuff!

This will be my fifth year teaching. I taught first grade for four years and this will be my first year in kinder!

Love your organizing. I work in library. 42 years Pre-K-12th grades small school. I hold on to things too. I am trying to learn to let it go. I may try your pile style. Thanks

I have been teaching 16 years. Started off as a 6th grade math/science teacher to 4th grade and now a S.T.E.M. teacher. Love your your videos! Nice balance between talking and non-talking sequences. Thank you for sharing your energy and wonderful tips of the pile! I use it every year.

I am a 2nd grade teacher, this school year will be my 12th year teaching AND I’m a soon to be FTM pregnant with twins! Your set up vlogs are seriously inspiring me to plan my space very intentionally for when I go out on maternity leave AND for when I return…!

I teach 4th right now ELA only we block. But u have taught every grade k-6 for 27 years!!! I'm entering my 28th this coming year! Still love it!

That hoard of storage containers was way too relatable lol

Nice: the POWER OF THE PILE! This is exactly what my day is going to be today, including construction. I feel ya! 14th year now. 2/3 combo this time. Thanks for getting my head into the “office” this morning because my body has a lot of work to do!

Yeah for organizing, purging, cleaning, and tackling THE PILE! You Rock! 🥰

Retired after 37 years, pretty evenly split between 1st and 2nd grades. I had 28 students my last year and when there wasn't a sub (often) we would end up with 36 kids-- insane! I would do "the pile", too. For me, it was better to look at one pile than to see stuff spread all over the room. I hope it's a wonderful year for you!

I have been teaching 19 years. This school year I will be teaching 1st but I have taught all grades K-5.

This is my first year in 2nd, but I’ve been teaching for 20 years. I love your set up videos!

I taught preschool for 16 years at a non-profit and this year will be my 2nd year in TK (Transitional Kindergarten) at a public school. Love your room and organization!

👌 Awesome job! I'm a homeschool teacher. I taught my twins for 13 years. I started in 1990. They graduated and I switched to being a curriculum director for a private daycare and Preschool/ Kindergarten. Now I'm on my 5th year of teaching my grandkids. Whew, that's a lot of my life...

Hi Shelley, this is my 17th year and I teach Kindergarten. I totally relate on the purge thing this year. I usually get sucked into the cute stuff at Target or want to get everything I see other teachers post on IG or YT. However, this year, I was strong and only bought 1 caddy from Target and some letter puzzles, 2 pocket charts, magnets and magnetic borders!!!

I am a Kindergarten teacher from rural IL thus is year 29! Love your videos! I am going into my classroom this week and try your pile method. This is my last week of Summer. Official my report back on the 16th.

Hello from Virginia! This is my 9th year and I just moved up from 3rd to 5th grade. I love how organized your room is!

I have to tell you this… I used to make fun of my mom for watching card making videos on KZread. One day she turned it around on me and said that she bet I would watch teachers on KZread as much as she watched her videos. Then she searched for one and found your channel. We watched a bunch of them together and she was right, I was hooked! My mom passed away (Covid and heart issues) a little over a year ago and every time I watch your videos it makes me think of her. I have since introduced your videos to my coworkers and they are hooked as well! Thank you for taking the time to make and post your videos! I teach second grade and am getting ready to start year 23!!! 😊

Wow this is incredible ❤️ I’m so glad my videos can bring you joy!!

Kindergarten starting my 17th year in kindergarten 21st with my district. Wow! times goes fast. Love watching your videos!

First year teacher here!! I'll be starting in 2nd grade this year, and watching your videos has made me feel a lot better about how overwhelmed I have felt about classroom set up, what I need and don't need, etc. I love the pile idea and will definitely be using that!! 😂

I am a high school Chem teacher from Ohio, and am going into my 28th year of teaching!. I like to get ideas that I can translate to HS, and have upped my organization game from watching you. I am laminating and cutting labels right now LOL

You are one of my absolute FAV teachers to watch!!! We do things and think very similar 😂 I teacher 4th grade math and science and this will be my 7th year

Not a teacher, yet (going into my junior year of college)! Hopefully going into kindergarten though.. these videos give me so much inspiration for the future :)

I do piles too and didn't know it was a thing! lol It always made more sense to me... I also do the same at home when I organize! I'm starting my 25th year teaching! Currently teaching kinder but have taught every grade except 5th. My favorite is 2nd grade!

This is my 2nd year teaching, but 4th year at my school. I teach 9th grade computer technology and I am one our our Yearbook advisors along with being our IT Director, Social Media Manager, Varsity Volleyball coach, and basketball and baseball stats men. Your logic on making piles has been a lifesaver for me this week and as we went back to work today.

I’m not in the classroom anymore (I stay home with my littles, similar in age to your boys!) and I am sooo living vicariously through you :) missing classroom setup!

This will be my 5th year teaching! 2 years in 1st, 2 years in 4th, now moving to 2nd!! Love watching your videos and following along 🤍

Getting ready to start my 14th year teaching high school. It always surprises me the number of ideas I pick up from elementary teachers on KZread.

MD . This will be year 23 teaching PreK. It makes me happy when others have as much as me because I get ragged on for having so much, but if you need something I probably have it, including a cordless glue gun now.

I love how organized you are!!! I need to be more like that. I used to be. But then I got lazy. Time to get back to where I was.

This will be my fifth year of teaching & my first year to teach 2nd grade! I noticed your cubby labeled Rooted in Reading texts. I will be using Rooted in Reading this year! I’m excited to use it because it involves read alouds!!

I’m going into year 4 of teaching. I’ve taught 5th and 3rd. This upcoming year will be my first time in 2nd! My district starts September 1st, so I still have 2 weeks of summer before I tackle moving classrooms :)

I have a rule that if it's something I've bought and haven't touched in two years - it's leaving my classroom. I learned that by watching my Mama move classrooms eight times (her school grew a LOT throughout her career).

This will be my 13th year teaching (unless you count the 4yrs I did homeschooling). I’m switching from self-contained special education to general education in a combined K-2 classroom in a private school

Hello from WA! Love your videos. This will be my 3rd year teaching.. First year teaching 4th grade- so exciting, previously taught 6th. Can't wait to get into my classroom on the 15th!

9th year total, second year in third grade. I miss 2nd grade though, that was my favorite. Thank you for your vlogs. I have such beautiful schedule cards, bin labels, student numbers, and a birthday chart because of you and your creativity!!

Year 26 for me just stared. 20 of those are in 2nd grade. Love your videos! Short and to the point…piles are my organization jam too! Have a great year.

Love how you put everything in a big pile! That’s how I clean and organize my house. I sweep all the kids mess into a big pile and pluck it away with them one toy at a time. ❤ love your videos

30+ years teaching mostly 3rd; some 2nd. I love watching your videos because you have great ideas and you’re so relatable too!

Love your videos 💜 This is year 19 for me but my first year in Kindergarten. I was in 1st grade for 9 years, also taught Pre K, 2 and 3. Have a great school 🏫 year ☺️

I absolutely love your vlogs! I teach language and literature in 5th and 6th grade. I watched your video on how you do ELA rotations and got great ideas! I twitched it a bit and it’s been great. Thanks for all that you share !

I just love your videos! I am a 2nd year 3rd-5th grade self contained special education teacher in New York!

I used the pile method to clean my living room and it worked so well! I never once felt overwhelmed

I’m starting my second year of teaching in kindergarten! Been watching your videos since my undergrad and student teaching days. So cool to see how your classroom has evolved from when you taught 3rd, 6th, and now 2nd!! You will always be one of my favorite teachers, wishing you the best school year!!

You make this look so easy! 🥴 I’m going into year 20 and moved to a different school after 17 years at my old school in 1 & 2…I feel like I’ve been setting up all summer! Grade 3 this year!

27 is insane!!! We teacher need to speak up about this.

I teach French (4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th.) I am starting my 18th year :)

I love the power of the pile... this year I will not have a class so I need to sort out a lot of things from my classroom... and the power of the pile made an overwhelming task somehow bearable! Thank you for your inspiration :) Greetings from Germany! Oh and I am in my 15th year of teaching... mainly grade 3 and 4 :)

Love your set up vlogs so much! So inspirational! I teach kindergarten and have taught for 5 years.

I love watching your videos! I have taught third grade for 8 years, and I still love new fresh ideas.

Hello! Thank you for your wonderful videos! I am going into my 13th year of teaching. I teach 3rd grade in AZ, and our first day of school is on Wednesday, August 10. Side note, I also have two boys (the second one is currently on the way).

Love your videos!! "The pile" is making an appearance in my classroom next week when we can FINALLY get into our rooms! It looks scary and overwhelming but I feel the same way you do-I know where everything goes-but its easier taking it from one big pile then it laying about all around the room!! Also I teach 2nd grade and this is year 9.5 for me! I taught Kindergarten for 8 years before I moved to 2nd!

Love your classroom set up videos! I am going into my 5th year of teaching in 4th grade! 💕

Not a teacher just enjoy watching your videos. You give me inspiration for organizing in my house.

100% agree. Piles are the Best. Hahahaha. Great video. I enjoy all your videos and all the experience you share with us. Thanks

I spent 90% of my day today cleaning my room AFTER I was told we couldn't get in until this past Monday due to the custodians still DEEP CLEANING. CLEANING WHAT?! My room was FILTHY other than the floors!

Another great job Shelly! " power of the pile"! Love it!

I do the whole pile thing too!!! Lol. This will be my 23rd school year but 22nd year in 1st grade.

Hi Shelly, 33 years teaching this year and I teach 4th grade! I love your videos and I get the now I have ___ students and I need to add a table! 🤦🏼‍♀️

This will be my 19th year teaching 2nd grade. Love your videos, you are so organized and you inspired me to clean up my classroom. Have a great first day of school!

I love your videos so much! It is my second year of teaching, but first year in third grade! Last year I was a first grade teacher but I’m excited to move up to third. I live by the piles as well! That’s how I organized everything for my room move this year and it helped SO much! Thanks for your videos, they are awesome!!

Thank you so much for these wonderful videos. I’m going into my 8th year teaching in NYC.

I just turned 30 this year. (so I feel you on the whole "body-falling-apart" thing!) This year is year 7 and I teach elementary general music. (K-6 in my district) II enjoy your videos a lot! Honestly I completely credit you with teaching me how to get my classroom more organized/together and with teaching me how to make letters for my bulletin boards. So thanks! lol

I love your videos! I'm in Kentucky and this will be my 11th year of teaching.

I'm in year 10 and moving to 2nd from 1st. And I love to pile!

I'm also a huge fan of piles when cleaning and reorganizing. I did it when I packed up my room in June, and I'm doing it now in August when I can get back in. (High school teacher going into my 9th year)

Great video! I teach Kindergarten and this is the start of my 30th year, mostly in K!

I teach in Canada and it’s my 5th year. I’m teaching 5 and 6 graders in the same Classroom:) i love your videos 💛

Starting my 6th year and teaching Kindergarten.

This is my second year teaching second grade! I live near Sacramento too! I Drive to Sacramento often! Would love to meet you!☺️

Made a huge pile on the carpet of my classroom today! I’ve been watching your channel since I was in college and so exciting to be using your methods during my second year of teaching!💕

I know this should of been said sooner but I love your set up vlogs because you talk less and do what you need to do.😁😁

I have gotten so many great ideas from you as I get ready to set up my first full-year longterm contract! I cannot wait to apply some of these ideas in my classroom!

Your classroom setup videos are my absolute fave and inspired me to do my own! I love your classroom style and overall attitude.

It is my 2nd year of teaching and 2nd year in 3rd grade! I love 3rd grade! I had the same color table groups last year and loved it. This year I’m going to try table caddies like you have to hopefully have to pass out/ lose less supplies! Thanks for sharing!

Love your videos even though I teach 6th grade. I’ve been teaching for +20 years!!

I love it!!! You will have the best school year!! You make it look so fun and so easy!

Love the colors! Going into my 22nd year in KINDERGARTEN!! Love the littles!

This is my first year teaching and I’m teaching 3rd grade. I literally have never seen my classroom and I have no materials or books or anything yet but I hope it goes well!

Inspirational, as always. I teach a 1st-2nd combo class. I have taught for 16 years and am gearing up to start year 17. 😳 I have always taught in a combo class of anywhere from 2-4 grades at a time. Last year I only had 10 kids, which was a dream, but this year I currently have 16 kids and no aide. 😬 I know 16 doesn’t sound like a lot, but when it’s a combo class with the younger ones, it’s a lot! I’m excited to keep seeing your videos. We start school next Wednesday, August 10 and I feel like your room is more ready than mine. 😂 I hope you have a fantastic year!

6 years teaching, mainly 1st and 3rd grade!

I am a senior in highschool and I’m looking to teach either 1st or 2nd grade! I’ve watched you since your first year of teaching. Love your videos!!!

This will be my second year teaching fifth grade!

Love your videos! This will be my 5th year teaching!! I can't believe it. I teach 7th grade English Language Arts :)

We are using phonics to reading this year!

Love these videos! I teach in Ontario Canada. Been at it 14 years this year! I teach grade 2 this year as well. Love all the organizational tips. Even though I’ve been at it for what feels like forever already, I’m ALWAYS looking for new, different, fun ways to organize/teach new concepts, so thank you!

You inspire me when I watch your videos.
