Although this video looks quite lengthy, I promise it takes me only a few minutes to create each video once you get a feel for what you are doing.
I try to follow this routine to keep me on track and prepared from week to week.
Monday: Lesson plans and video slides created for the upcoming week
Tuesday: Create videos during prep time
Wednesday: Use videos from prior day to schedule classroom blog posts
Thursday: NOTHING!
Friday: NOTHING!
*Since I usually create all videos on Tuesday, I try to make sure that I have videos from one Tuesday to the next covered. Then, by the time I'm out of videos, I'll already have the plans and such in place to go through this rotation again.
I try to "schedule" time for doing each of these tasks to make it less of a headache. As you know, there are kinks in any well laid plan, however, this really helps to keep me on track most of the time. :) Since I have Thursday and Friday free from math plans, I can really dedicate time to working on science or social studies plans.
Thank you so much for your post! I am going to purchase the place value slides today. Do you plan on putting more flipped lesson units in your store?
ReplyDeleteYes! I have several that I am hoping to get loaded this week! :)

ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, thank you!! Your tutorial was extremely helpful. I can't wait to create my first video. I appreciate your help!!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I'm so glad I can inspire you to take the plunge into flipping your classroom!!! :)
DeleteThanks for sharing. I have set a goal for one flipped lesson per week for my classroom. I haven't had a model, so I was trying to figure everything out on my own. I have tried different apps- My first video took me 6 hours and 45 mins from start to finish. I wish I would of found this first before I tried going out on my own. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteCan I just say that you are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteOkay so my question is what do you do in class?
