Classroom 2013-2014!

I really though (and I mean REALLY thought) that setting up my classroom would be easier the second time around. Move a table here, put a bookcase there, bulletin borders up, school supplies away? Right?

WRONG! It took my forever to get my room just right. I think I spent four full work days slaving away - pushing furniture around, putting books away, stapling (and restapling) bulletin boards. However, I do love the layout a lot more than last year so that's a win right?

Anyways, here are some pictures!!
View from the front door - the listening center is off to the left and the whole group area is off to the right.


My classroom library. Right behind the library are the student computers - to avoid curious eyes from watching other students on the computers.


My small group area. I like being by the windows =)

Whole group area and Activboard (which is now working! Yay!)


School started on Wednesday and I love my kiddos already! I have a really great group of darlings, although I had forgotten how kindergarten-ish they still are! I'm used to my well-trained first grade-almost second graders and now I have to start all over again. But they really are sweet and pretty cute! And one of them is even from Milwaukee! I got pretty excited when I saw that on her paperwork! I currently have 26 kids on my roster but one hasn't shown. Even with a first grade position cut, I still started off with the same amount of little first grade friends as last year.

Here's to a happy and successful year!

  2. I like your room! I have trapezoid tables too.
    I always forget how little they are when they come in the room. The first few weeks are exhausting!

    1. Trapezoid tables are always a bit awkward to place for me, but I like it! And you're so right about the first few weeks being exhausting! I was tired by Thursday - and we started school on Wednesday! Ha!
