It still hasn't really hit me that I'm a real teacher. It's been an absolute blast so far. A LOT of work, but so fun. They are energetic, funny little 7 year olds, but I love them. We are learning and growing and it's great. I decided to do an adventure/travel theme. It took literally forever and a day to set up my classroom, but I had a lot of help. I started with 20 students but I had one move so now I have 19. 10 girls and 9 boys.
I'm so excited about this! There are so many options when it comes to writing! The mailbox is for little notes to be delivered to our class. The composition notebooks are for class journals. The pads of paper are for lists. The buses and globes have prompts on them. There are letter papers,opinion papers, and just plain lined paper. How fun!
I'm so excited about this bulletin board. Each month I am having a visitor come teach the class about a country that they've visited or served in. My kids will have little passports that they get a stamp in and do a little writing about the country.
This clip chart is for classroom management. A little bit better than the traditional card flipping method because in this one you can move up!
This is for student spotlight! They will have "patches" to put on the suitcase to help us get to know them.

This is one of my favorite projects. I took a map of Utah and mod podged it to some cardboard letters. It was so fun!
There's so many little things that go in to making a classroom! And for someone who HATES making decisions, sometimes it was quite a challenge, but it's finally done and all ready for these little students. I'm really looking forward to the year!
