 happy December 1st, an official first day of Vlogmas. So I'm getting a little bit tired of not vlogging and it's December 1st so I thought what a perfect way to jump back in to filming by doing Vlogmas. But I'm gonna do it a little bit different than most people do because I do, I am limited for time and I am living in a hotel so editing every day just doesn't sound great to me. So I'm gonna do Vlogmas in weekly Vlogmas video style which just means I will film every day but I will post the video once a week. So it is December 1st, we just walked through the door, Cash and Millie are here playing. And I just unloaded some food into the fridge. I was pounding down this rainbow roll from Trader Joe's this morning and I need to put my coffee in my cup. My desk is kind of a hot mess right now, as you can see. I've got like snacks that I need to put away. I have a sub sheet that's going up for Friday because we're going to the Polar Express. So you guys will get to see that in this week's vlog but I'm just trying to put stuff away. So I'm just gonna fill up my coffee here and get things rolling. Okay, let's go to our room and get your jacket and stuff. Okay, wait. Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, come back over here. No. Guess what Mandy is showing me? Her dibbles report, which is her students reading fluency and every single student. Every single one made growth. Like every, well, minus the five that were absent. We're absent. Every single one. Every single one out of 76. So I'm doing stuff right. I'm so proud of you, you're such an amazing teacher. I'm so proud of you, you're such an amazing teacher. Squeeze more. So that's a win. It is a win. Doesn't that just fill your heart? You can smile, you're allowed. Yes, baby. We have the two little ones in today. We're gonna head down and take these two to preschool in a minute. Say good morning. Can you guys tell me a big good morning? Say good morning. Say it. It's a wallet? We're gonna take these kids down to preschool. Good morning, everyone. Happy Thursday and Vlogmas day two. So this morning, I just dropped cash off at school and I'm having a little snack and I am getting things set up for the day. I'm actually taking tomorrow off. I think I mentioned this yesterday. So I have to really finalize all of my sub stuff. And something I like to do when I'm gonna have a substitute is send my kids on a virtual field trip. And you can find them all over teachers, pay teachers. The one I'm gonna be sending them on this week is Christmas Around the World. So I found this really cool Christmas Around the World field trip on TPT. And what I'm doing is I'm actually just going through each slide and I'm recording a moat. If you don't know what a moat is, basically it is an audio recording of your voice that you can put and embed right into your Google slideshows. So when the kids click on it, it's your voice reading whatever it is that they need to read or that's what I use it for. So because I do have quite a few IEPs with accommodations, I like to record everything on each slide so that the kids can click and listen to everything as an accommodation or modification. So I do that for pretty much everything that they would have to do independently most of my tests have them on them. It's basically just an audio embedded into whatever it is that you're using. So little tip of the day, something I like to do. So I have, let's see, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven slides left to record on. And I'm gonna do that during my prep today but I just finished doing my Secret Santa opening of all of the gifts that I got from my Secret Santa and I'm just gonna say I am very excited to reveal my Secret Santa to you guys. Somebody that I've never really met or talked to before but I have watched for a while and so that's kind of exciting. So anyway, okay, snack today is buffalo chicken dip from Trader Joe's and some multi-grain pita chips. I haven't been doing bright, bright line eating in a couple of months. I haven't been like super strict on it just because of living in a hotel, it is really difficult but as much as possible, I've been not eating flour or sugar, so I feel like I'm still doing pretty good other than the fact that I'm not like weighing out my food and like not eating that stuff all the time. Like I'm just kind of eating it when I need to. Does that even make sense? I don't know. Anyway, I'm gonna get all of my slides pulled up for the day and then I might see you during prep time.
