This first picture shows the new desk arrangement!! The initial setup of the desks made the room look so small and did not encourage group discussion and interaction.
This is just a different view of the classroom. As you will notice, the cork boards are still bare but after setting up the desks, I cleaned through my desk and threw out a bunch of junk from the previous teacher, and I completely emptied a book shelf and moved it back by my desk as I needed that extra storage. I also cleaned out the closet to make space for those books that I didnt want to give away, but I also didnt have room for them on the current book shelves.
These last two pictures are some signs I made this evening. I will take them to get laminated tomorrow and then hang them up! The first picture of signs represents the school theme for the year and the second picture contains the signs I have made for homework...so the students always know where to look when they have a question about homework.
My friend Angie came up to school today to help me put up bulletin boards. We got ALL of the cork covered and got some trimmers up. I really hope to finish all of this decorating by tomorrow...or at least the end of this week. It is NOT my thing!
More pictures to come!
