3 Teacher-Bloggers That Will Inspire Aspiring Teachers Everywhere

@rawpixel

Our world nowadays revolves around social media. While some of the things we see every day on social media are far from good, there are several ways that social media can help people. One of those ways is through blogging and vlogging (making videos for others to watch on YouTube). This allows people to learn from others and get a peek into what their lives are like. There are many teachers out there who share their lives with the world. They give awesome ideas, resources, and allow us to see what it can really be like as a teacher. There are a few teacher-bloggers that really stand out to me.

1. Pocketful of Primary

Michelle Ferre is a 4th grade teacher from Maryland. She is currently teaching math and science. I would highly recommend checking out her YouTube channel and Instagram. Her personality is bubbly and slightly quirky. Her videos can be kind of long because of all the information she packs into each video. I think this is a good thing because it shows that she wants to provide her followers with everything they need to know. One of my favorite videos from her is called "How to Digital Lesson Plan With an iPad." This video was eye-opening and interesting for someone like me who loves to plan with paper. She also just recently got engaged, so maybe she'll include some tips about wedding planning while being a teacher!

2. Mrs. Richardson's Class

I came across Amanda Richardson's blog very recently. She has taught kindergarten and first grade but has now taken on her blog full time. Her blog is super helpful because it can be a huge help to teachers. Her blog is neatly organized which allows readers to easily navigate through each section. She provides her audience with lesson ideas, curriculum, professional development videos, and more! One article that I have come across is titled "3 Favorite Lesson Hooks." An important part of a lesson is getting students interested in the topic. This article is short and sweet, but includes her personal input because she had experience using the tactics! With all that Mrs. Richardson's blog has to offer, I am excited to continue to explore it!

3. One FAB Teacher

Miss May was one of the first teachers I came across on social media. Sadly, she recently decided to focus on being in the classroom and will no longer be uploading videos on YouTube. However, I believe she will keep her videos up so that her followers can reference them! Miss May is an awesome first grade teacher. She definitely exudes a teacher spirit, but she keeps it real. My favorite videos from her were her behavior management and classroom tour videos. Behavior management can be hard for many aspiring teachers to grasp, so I appreciate that she took the time to give useful tips! What I loved most about this channel was that she was a teacher and vlogger who also happened to be a person of color--this is almost unheard of! I hope in her YouTube absence, the diversity in this area will grow.

I love looking to these ladies for inspiration! It is super fun to scroll through their social media platforms in my free time.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
