A Day in the Life of a Fourth Grade Teacher | Dealing With Overwhelm

Just when I thought my schedule was going to open up, it’s time to kick off yet another crazy busy week! We actually had another long weekend (Monday was a YOU Day… I explain what that is in the vlog) which means it’s only a 4 day week but we have a TON going on! Students are taking their “interim assessment” for both math and reading which is basically a practice STAAR test so I have to prepare my room for testing… AKA, I have to separate student desks and take down all of my anchor charts and posters. But, my big glimmer from the day was receiving an INCREDIBLY special belated birthday gift… you have to watch to see how amazing it is! __________________________________________________________________ 🎥 SUBSCRIBE TO POCKETFUL OF PRIMARY: https://www.youtube.com/pocketfulofprimary?sub_confirmation=1 VLOG PLAYLIST: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzMt-laLU9XwfKSOykTpRq2IGVustA-U8 🍎🛒 CLASSROOM 2025-2026 AMAZON LIST: https://amzn.to/3H8VQEw CHAPTERS: 0:00 Intro 0:40 Underground spirit days 1:24 Birthday and weekend recap 4:46 “YOU” day 6:19 Feeling overwhelmed 9:52 Science investigation prep 12:40 New prizes & supplies 15:04 End of the day check in 16:58 Interim testing prep 20:30 Big glimmer 21:44 Outro BLACK AND WHITE SHACKET: https://amzn.to/4qqMIwW GLOW IN THE DARK SQUISHY TOYS: https://amzn.to/4qrb5dT ANIMAL SQUISHY TOYS: https://amzn.to/477jFab FIDGET RINGS: https://amzn.to/478Cwlf BULLET TIP DRY ERASE MARKERS: https://amzn.to/4ngJtWd SCENTED STICKERS: https://amzn.to/4hw69k2 LINED STICKY NOTES: https://amzn.to/48KugJm CUBICLE CLIPS: https://amzn.to/3WT9hN7 __________________________________________________________________ 🍏 TEACHERSPAYTEACHERS STORE: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Pocketful-Of-Primary 📖🥇🍎 FIRST CLASS TEACHING BOOK: Amazon - https://amzn.to/4b8C3hp Audible - https://www.audible.com/pd/First-Class-Teaching-Audiobook/B0C3FQVJN2 Audiobooks - https://www.audiobooks.com/audiobook/first-class-teaching-10-lessons-you-dont-learn-in-college/673960 🛒 AMAZON FAVORITES: http://bit.ly/pocketfulofprimarystore 🍎🛒🖤 CLASSROOM AMAZON WISHLIST: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1JLJUE48YFDLO?ref_=wl_share 🍎 POCKETFUL OF PRIMARY MERCHANDISE: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PocketfulofPrimary?ref=search_shop_redirect __________________________________________________________________ Find me on my other social media platforms: INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/pocketfulofprimary FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/PocketfulofPrimary/ PINTEREST: https://www.pinterest.com/pocketfulofprim/ PODCAST: https://teachingonthedouble.com/podcasts/ WEBSITE: www.pocketfulofprimary.com For business inquiries, please contact: pocketfulofprimary@gmail.com __________________________________________________________________ *My description includes referral codes/links that allow me to earn points or credit that can be redeemed for products and/or subscriptions.
