Classroom Reveal... Finally!

Kindergarten has started!  And, on this beautiful Saturday morning I slept in a little longer than normal. (Well, actually a LOT longer.  9:00 AM.  Oops!) Now, with coffee in hand, I am bound and determined to catch up in the blogging world!  I am absolutely loved my first week as a Kinder teacher.  There are a few challenges I am figuring out in my transition from 3rd grade.  But, I cannot wait to do so!

I promised classroom pictures a few weeks ago.  And, that never happened.  But, better late than never!

My classroom library is my favorite place in our room.  I still need a wider selection of books, but for now we will be ok!  In my third grade room, I had a huge window that overlooked the playground.  My new room no longer has this luxury.  :(  Not wanting to let my curtains go to waste I created a makeshift window.  As the year progresses, I intend to change up the seasons.  Fall is coming up quick, I better get started on making leaves!

I mentioned in an earlier post that creating felt board pieces became a stress reliever in college.  This past summer, I decided that my classroom needed a felt board, too! 

Throughout the year, my students and I create the posters that go on our bulletin boards together.  That is why, so many of my boards are blank.  They will be filled in no time!

I am so thankful that my classroom has a bathroom.  This little turtle helps my students know when it is ok to enter the bathroom.  They just flip the sign to Stop or Go.  

Because I am positive that you see it, ignore the crookedness of my schedule.  I define myself as being a perfectionist, but by the time I got to posting the schedule I needed to let something go.  When I realized it was crooked, I had to force myself to be ok with it.

I have many more pictures to share, but I am going to save a few for later as they could have a whole post to themselves.  Check back soon!
