Classroom!



Here are some pictures from my classroom. I added the kids names next to the brown sheets of paper on the bulletin board under "knowledge is power". It looks a lot better with the names next to each sheet. I got to meet most of my kids tonight and their parents because it was "Meet the teacher" night where they get to come in, unload their supplies, and meet me! Out of the 22 in my class, only 3 did not show up! It sounds like I have some great kids along with some equally great parents! I'm so excited and a little less terrified than I have been! We will see how this week goes! I still have to plan everything I am doing my first week because I have so many ideas! If anyone has a suggestion or idea for what I should read aloud to the kids on the first day or just general ideas for the classroom, please feel free to post!

P.S. - I owe a belated thank you to my cuz, Andre! I loved the birthday thing and I miss you!

HI!!! Ok, just saw your post and thought I would say hi! :) Im going to school to be a teacher right now, and understand that fear your talking about!!! Even to the point of considering changing majors! LOL But now I'm back on track, and although I'm just as nervous, I am definitely looking forward to it! :) Your classroom looks awesome, but here's a idea that I saw last year in a classroom....The teacher cut out the letters to each students names...stapled them down vertically and then hung them from the ceiling above the desk...idk, but I thought it was cute! :) Good luck :)

Love the finishing touches in your room. It looks like you are ready to go. As for Dad's comment, you already got your first apple (computer).
Love you!
