My classroom is officially ready to go for tomorrow! Pictures posted on our class blog: http://roomb1.edublogs.org/ I am soooooo EXCITED!! http://picasaweb.google.com/pahobson/ClassroomDay0
cute reading corner; i love reading corners!!! Also..i love how it's so neat and organized! Last week was our first week back and even though kids had jobs to complete at the end of the day..i'd still take about 20 mins cleaning every day..those books get out of order fast! Good LUCK!
Where did you get the letters for your boards? A colleague of mine has them outside of her door and I absolutely adore them!
Looks great! I like your opening message and the idea of having the kids mark how they feel. What's going on your "Pay it Forward" board?
Its from the movie: Pay It Forward (2000) [Kevin Spacey, Haley Joel Osment, Helen Hunt] http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0223897/ Its like the "Kid Spotlight" each week. But, instead of them bringing in things to share, each week there will be one kid that has to "Pay It Forward" 3 times: Help someone in the class, Help someone at the school, and help someone at home. On Friday they will share/post on the wall the actions that they did. The person that they helped in the class will "Pay It Forward" for the next week. The idea is that one person can help 3 people and those people will help 3 people and those people will help 3... and so on.
I love the Pay It Forward idea! Your room looks so organized and friendly. The kiddos will love it! I really like the letters you have for your BBs. How exciting, I'm jealous (I still have a year before I can have my own classroom). Good job!
