Well...it's finally time to show off our space! I have been having such a great time putting all the finishing touches together in our classroom this week. Here are a few photos of our happy room. :) Although I am enjoying how super clean it is at the moment, (Take a good look, it surely won't look this clean again till Open House! Ha!) I really just can't wait for it to come to life with student work.
With no further ado, come on in! Welcome to our sweet home away from home. <3

| Our front door. |

Drop station as you enter the room. This important table is where papers that are ready to be returned
are filed, Wednesday folders are stashed, homework folders get filled and checked, school library
books are stored, and students turn in their best effort work! |
 |
| The view as you enter. So very thankful for the awesome parent who donated our comfy colorful rug! Love it! |
 |
| Cute little Table 1 |
 |
| Our Reading CAFE board. So excited to get this baby up and running! |
 |
| Many hands make light work. :) |
 |
Along the back wall we store math manipulatives, and lots of supplies. I love our journeys map.
My students created it years ago and it has become such a valuable resource to our curriculum.
(Gotta get some work up quick to cover that jagged seam, eek!) |

This is our school mascot that I use in my bald eagle lesson to show the eagle's awesome wingspan.
I decided to hang him up this year so the kiddos can add a feather with their name on it each time they earn the HEART of an Eagle. I expect "Matey" will be soaring high with wings full of feathers very soon! |
 |
| Ta-Da! Just might be my favorite spot in the room, our library. It's still a work in progress, but little by little, it's getting very organized. Wouldn't you like to curl up with a good book here!? |
 |
I made a huge dent organizing books this summer. Some day in the near future, each and every book will have a
label and a corresponding tub. Any fellow organizers out there want to help me finish up? :) |

| Clip chart and "In This Class" poster. |
 |
One more poster I just had to make. I love the things that take place in our class everyday. <3

Hope you enjoyed the tour! In the coming days it will really come to life.
Thanks so much for linking up, Jessica! I love the huge map in your room. That's amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting Courtney! Yes the map is such a great resource for us. If you wan to make one, I just drew it by projecting the image on the paper, then the students painted it. Although it was great fun for the kids to make it, I decided to laminate it so I can use it year after year because it was a bit time consuming to create. Have a great long weekend!
