Classroom Setup | Teacher Impact - Episode 1 | MsRazz ChemClass
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! I am thrilled to be back with you again this year, and in my usual fashion, I'll kick off the new school year with a classroom setup vlog! As you watch this vlog, please keep in mind that my classroom has taken me YEARS to get it to the place you are seeing in the video.

Using Google Keep to Prep for Back to School | Teacher Summer Vlog - Episode 3 | MsRazz ChemClass
In my last video, I talked a lot about my paper-based teacher planner. But then it occurred to me that my planner isn't the only thing I use to help KEEP (get it?) me on track. If you are not familiar with Google Keep, this is a fantastic digital option for those that prefer to have reminders and to do lists with them on the go. In this video, I'll provide a brief tutorial on how to use its major features and share how I am using Google Keep to help me with my back to scho

My First Week + Classroom Update | Teacher Transformation - Episode 3 | MsRazz ChemClass
Hi there! I hope you had a great week with your students! Nothing like a 4-day week to ease us into the new school year. I'm really liking the way my classes are divided up in the hybrid schedule.
