New Chapters

WE are a week and a half out from the beginning of school! I signed my teaching contract on Monday and now have until Sunday to have my classroom ready. Sunday is the day we meet the parents!


This is where we are today:

It is a process...

Biggest accomplishment of the day?? The calendar bulletin board, which was left undone...

Lots of pretty cabinets...lots of storage space!!!!

A bit more chaos to deal with in the morning...

You can't see it from this angle, but that white board is WAAAAYYYYY crooked...

Nothing else much to say...

A to Z bookends: and wall art which reads "Every child is a story yet to be told."

There is so much to be done. And I have a ton of great ideas!!! I can't wait to get this year started!!!!! The theme in my classroom this year is FROGs (Fully Rely On God). And we send home with each of the students the stuffed 'class pet.' This year I am going to make several of them, each a little bigger than the previous, and the more the kids read the more he will GROW!!!!! I think this is one of my favorite ideas! What a unique way to motivate those developing readers!!!!!!!!
