 back to my channel, Eples and Fiaras. Today, Jennifer and I are doing the teacher BFF tag. Yes, which was originally done by the Spanish. The Spanglish Maestra. Spanglish Maestra. So we're really excited. Yeah! And with Wien's today. Well, we're twins at least once a week. At least. At least five times a week. Five times a week. All right, so I'm gonna ask Charlotte the questions on her channel and we're in her classroom and then we're gonna go to my classroom and then I'm gonna ask her the questions. So some of it might be redundant and some of it will be fresh. So you need to watch both of us. Yes, so first question. What do you teach and how long have you been teaching? I've been teaching fourth grade for three and a half years. This is my fourth year teaching fourth grade. So I'm gonna pick four. Oh, that's true. It's my golden year! You can't see the yay, but it says yay in gold. Oh, it does. Okay. Number two, how did we meet? Okay, I have to tell you. Your version. Your version. My version. I'll tell my version. Okay, so I received a welcome box from the school that we currently work at. I had a t-shirt in it with some like pencil and some other fun things. And I posted a picture of it on my Instagram. And I put, oh my gosh, I'm so excited to be teaching at my new school and I forget what else. So then a couple of days later, I opened my Instagram up and there's a message from this creepy person. It sounds really creepy. It actually wasn't creepy at all. Okay, good. And it was from Jennifer. I should go back and find it. It's in your messages. I sent her a message and she's like one of the first people I ever messaged on Instagram. Now I'll like respond to people's stories even if I don't know them because it's totally cool. All the way up. And then all the way up, the first one. Okay, so anyway, she messaged me and said something along the lines of oh my gosh, I'm teaching at that school too. I got the same one. And I was like, what? And then it talked about I see that you do YouTube. I do YouTube too. Yeah. And then I forget what else happened. I'll tell you the rest of the story on my page because I was a little, I wanna find it. I was a little creeped out. So it was creepy on my end, not so much on your end. It was fate. It was fate. Fate that brought us together before. So it says, hello, my name is Jennifer. I stumbled across your YouTube channel today. I too make teaching YouTube videos. In your description I saw your Instagram link so I added you as a friend. Well, this is a super small world because I saw that you're going to be working at next year. I just moved up from Phoenix and I'm going to be teaching third grade at next year. I got the same welcome package. And I said, oh my gosh, what a small world. How awesome. I'd love to see your channel too. I don't do much on YouTube. It's just a hobby. One year later, lies. This was a year later. It was June 14th. It's almost two years. 2016. So that's how we met. And you'll hear the same exact story on Jennifer's channel. But my side of it. So what's up with your phone? What's up? And then we met at the new teacher training. Yeah, we're going to get into that. Number three, what was your first impression of each other? Well, I saw you on YouTube and you saw me on YouTube before we actually met, right? Yeah. So what was your impression of me on YouTube and then in person? I thought that you like had a lot of really good ideas. I think the first video I ever watched was your pencil sharpener one. I was like, yes. So I went and bought them. The first time you influenced me to buy something. Before you even started them. Okay. And then when I met you in person. You came up to me. I came up to you. I was nervous. And I was like, oh my gosh, there's Jennifer there. And I was like, oh, she looks so cute. She had her hair all up with a little bun. And I was a side pony with a little bow. Oh yeah, I would do that. And you had on your little leopard print shoes. Dang, you remember all that? What's your planner shirt on? Dang. And your coffee. And I was like, I knew we were gonna be friends. And the next day she sat by me. It was me. All right, I keep wanting to like say my side, but you guys have to go to my channel for that. All right, what is something you have learned from me? What is something I haven't learned from you? I've learned a lot of things from Jennifer. Just like teaching hacks on top of teaching ideas on top of behavior management ideas on top of, I mean, the list goes on and on. What do you not learn from this person? She's been teaching long enough to know all the things that work, all the things that don't work. And when she finds new stuff, she's so willing to share them. And so- That's my favorite thing. I feel like a lot of things that I'm doing this year in my classroom, I learned from you. Yay! I wonder if like I said, I won't say everything about you now, but I can. All right, what is your favorite memory from last school year or this school year? I guess we could say this year because we've been friends now for a year. So just over this year. My favorite memory. I guess it could be school related or we could do one school one and one non-school one. My favorite school related memory has to be every first Tuesday. Every first Tuesday of the month we celebrate Karnita's Day. Oh, yes! We need to make shirts. Yes. We need to make shirts. And every, because she has lunch before me every day that it would be Karnita's Day if I don't come here in my head though. It's Karnita's Day! Except for now I can go, Oh, Karnita's Day! So I just think that like all of our fun, like, we have, I guess what it, we have like, not rituals. We have not routines. We have, what is it called? What's up world we're looking for? Traditions! Traditions! Yeah, and we match all the time and we plan it, obviously. Oh. And I think that that's always fun and everyone always notices. Yes. And then my favorite memory, not in school. I know our future, our new future favorite memory. We're gonna go to Disneyland. Yes! I don't know, I have so many fun ones. I know. I feel like cleaning my backyard will be one escape. She's like, I don't like that. I'm just kidding. No! What was the fun thing we've done? There's a lot. There's a lot. Okay, I guess our Ikea trip, I was gonna say that. We left so hard like the whole time and my favorite part of that trip was when you told me we were getting an Aaron Condon planner and I gave you the stink eye, so bad! That's true. Except for I'm using it. Yes. You better use it. Every time I see it I'm gonna be like, I had it out. Wait, your poem? I had it out. All right. If you hang out outside of school, what do you do? If. I never hang out with your other friends. My husband's gone on the weekends. So I just hang out with her. Exactly. Saturday, Saturday, Sunday. After school, before school. Yeah. So we're gonna start sleepovers Friday night. Yep. And we usually go to Starbucks. Target, Target. TJ Maxx. We do a lot of shopping, which we really need to stop doing. But we go shopping even without buying stuff. We need to start seeing movies and like bowling and doing other things. Yeah, we're gonna go bowling this Friday, right? Yes. We have seen movies together. We have. We need to go to a picture show. I haven't been there yet. Yes. And we intend to. I'm afraid someone's gonna knock on the door and I'm gonna jump. I'm a little bit worried. I mean, nervous about filming corona people. I know. My dad's walking around and he's. Oh, I don't, I'm not even nervous now. He's just chilling. So next one. What is something you always ask them for help with? I always ask Jennifer for help with like when I'm planning something, I like it for her to listen to my plan and tell me like what, like, oh yeah, that's a good idea. Or maybe try this. Like, I guess in a teaching, cause we're teacher friends and I mean. So most of the time that's what I ask your help for. Or if it's not school related, I ask her to go to my mailbox and get all the packages that have been dropped off. Oh, they're in, I parked next to you because there's two packages in my car for you. Cause when I'm gone, if I do go to visit Scott while he's at work, she'll get all the packages that are left at my house. She lives like, if I don't get stuck at any lights, like eight minutes away. And if I get stuck at a light, maybe 10 minutes. Yeah, which is so nice. Yes. What do you admire most about them? Oh, gosh. Oh. Are you okay? No, I'm getting it. Shoo! I'm complimenting her. That's good. I swear. Um, I really admire how genuinely So, didn't she? kind she is. And just giving and positive. And I've never met somebody so giving. Like she will give anything. You know, if you ask for something, she'll give it. And not even if you, I feel like I'm too nice sometimes. So not to me, could never be too nice to me, but you are too nice to other people sometimes. Sometimes I just feel like I'm too nice. I'll be in the mouth and the muscle. And you'll be the, I'll be like, sure. So that made me mad. How dare they walk down the hallway with you? What's wrong with you? And so I think I just admire that. Like there's certain things that have happened like in personal lives that I'm like, girl, I don't know how you did that in such a positive way. Like, I would have been like, oh, oh heck no, oh heck no. So I just admire her positivity and kindness. All right, number nine. I don't think I'm gonna like these answers. It makes me so really lazy. Who gets to school first? Me! She's never here. I get here like at eight and leave at four. But sometimes I get here at seven thirty and I leave at four thirty. But like, let's get real. I get here at seven. I probably won't as much this year, just because I already have a lot of things done and planned. And it's my 10th year or so. Do you know what's going on? Why don't you get far enough in your grade level that you know what to teach? I really need to come like at six a.m. and leave at like nine p.m. Well, I would say I'm with my friend. Oh, well that could happen too. Yeah. I plan on coming down this hallway cause all my friends. All my friends are there. Yeah, all my friends are in this hallway. So I plan on just bringing like all my projects down here. And then we can bring projects to my room. Yeah. All right. Who has better lunches? I just get creative. I don't like eating the same thing. Just tell me what you're making for lunch. I just make you lunch. Why don't we go shopping together on the weekends and plan our meals? Yes. New tradition, duh. Who is more organized? For sure. I try to be, but my organization is ugly compared to yours. Like your organization is pretty and gone and mine is like, well, I do have cabinets. She doesn't have cabinets. So like when there's stuff that you can see, you can't help that. And we cannot have like fabric to cover it, which is really annoying. But I have like a Monica's closet of fashions. She's very organized. I'm pretty organized, but she is way more. I feel like later on in the year I get piles and that's better. What is something that you can't be without? Because you're answering the questions. So should I answer this about you? Yes. Okay, so I think, and we kind of talked about this. I don't think you can be without your phone, but it's not because she's like checking her Instagram or text messages. It's because I use class dojo, I use timers, I use random children's selector and children's selector. Just randomly start something on my phone. I use the calculator if I need it. Sometimes when we're talking about a topic and the kids ask me a question that I don't know the answer to, well, Siri, yeah, or we'll Google it. And I also let the kids give themselves points like in the mornings, I'll just let my kids pass the phone around and give a point or I'll just hand it to them and say here, give yourself whatever. So I always have it. Plus in the event, if our intercom goes out again, we had to have our phones on us because of an emergency. So. And you can't be without your water. You always have your water. I'm really bad at drinking my water. I might carry my water around, but that don't mean I drink it at all, yeah. I have a kid that has the, that's their job. I need to start doing that. A water monitor. Yeah, I used to do water competitions. All right, what is an insight? I can't even talk. What is an inside joke you have? We have a lot. Some of them we can't talk about because then they won't be secrets. No, then we'd have to kill you. Literally. One of them has to do with the song and that's all we're gonna say. Yep. And I want mean girls. Oh yeah, we like to quote mean girls. And we quote other stuff, I feel. I feel like some of our inside jokes are like the faces we make at each other. Yes, I can just. I feel like inside jokes of us, not jokes, but like we match all the time. Yes. And we walk in like today, we like walked. Seriously guys, same glasses, same shirt, same shoes. And everyone noticed, always noticed. Always. People asked. They said they wanted to be our friends. Yeah, they said they wanted to hang out with a cool group. And I was like, I'm not. That's all I know. Me too. Okay, good. I feel like we're gonna have way more inside jokes because not only that, but you have some of my old kids. And so, you're gonna be in on the slap one. I'm gonna slap you. Crankin' Stein, yeah. Race, race. I'm literally gonna come in all the time cause she has all my old kids. And I don't know. We have a lot that we just don't. Like I can't think of them. They're inappropriate. They're inappropriate. I was just like. I was slob-like. I was busy smiling. Wait, we're supposed to redo that. Oh, too much. That's my favorite one. But you growl. You growl. I can't even do that. How do you growl? Growl, growl, growl, growl. I can't even growl. Yeah, that's about it. We send each other snapchats of our inside jokes, randomly. And we get other people on them. Oh, I can do one really quick. I woke up like this. Blow-less, blow-less. That's quite a genuine apple. That's all the questions? Yeah. What's the inside joke you have? Should we add our own question at the end for a bonus or no? I do. I have a question. Okay. What is something I look forward to this school year? Something that you look forward to. Yes. Other than getting my kids. I should answer that one, huh? Yeah. Well, I can ask what I think you're excited for. I think you're excited for getting my kids and that I can come and eat lunch with you. Is there more? Personal or teaching? I'm excited to just have another year to spend with Jennifer and really expand our friendship. Yeah, because I feel like we did a lot over summer. We got really close over summer. Yeah, I feel like that's when we started becoming friends. I mean, we're friends before real friends. Like for real friends, not big friends. Sorry if I used to teach anyone apples. So, thank you guys so much for watching. We tag you. Ready, tag? You're it. Jinx. Yeah. Go to Jennifer's channel and I'm gonna interview her. Yes. And if you have a friend that's not on YouTube, just interview them. Interview them anyway. They can be off camera too. Don't matter. Yeah. So yeah, if you wanna watch my answers, we'll be in my room. I will link Jennifer's video down in the description below. Yay. Well, you know, with cloth too, it's gonna bite you a little bit. That's good. I don't even know how you're gonna do that. What a cry. Yeah. You can see your shirt down there. Okay. That's good. That was cute.
