In this episode, Leslie, Bri, and Miss L break down the strategies that actually work when your students are loud, chaotic, unpredictable, and endlessly loveable. From resetting expectations to building routines that stick, they share real examples from their own classrooms — including PTO systems, class economies, workplace models, and the small changes that make a big difference.

The conversation gets honest about the challenges teachers are facing right now: inconsistency, shifting behaviors, emotional exhaustion, and how hard it is to teach when your tried-and-true methods suddenly stop working. They unpack what it means to remove emotion, stay consistent, and set clear boundaries, all while laugh-crying through stories about messy desks, hallway chaos, and one truly iconic water-spill wardrobe change.

Whether you teach kindergarten or high school, this episode gives you practical tools, new ideas, and the reassurance that you are not the only one feeling the shift this year. Drop your best classroom management strategies in the comments.
