Room Reveal


WOW. I have dreamed of typing these words for a while now and I'm thrilled that I can actually do it: It's finally done. I have been busting my ass butt for four grueling weeks and I couldn't be happier with the result. I have created a classroom that I am so proud to call my own. It is warm, comfortable, and feels like home (that was the goal, because I officially spend more time here than my own home). I was just explaining to my mother last night how essential it is that the classroom feel safe and comforting for my students because in a Title I school many of them come in with a low self-esteem or an aversion towards school. My ultimate goal is that they will feel comfortable enough in our classroom to put fourth a positive attitude so that we can make learning a fun and lasting experience. Enough of my blabbing...here it is!



Of course I had to spruce up those boring clear drawers!


















Shout out to my family for my lovely first  week of school roses!

My home depot toolbox turned teacher-toolbox

Shout out to my grandmother for sewing this beautiful table skirt!

    Congratulations on your first year as a teacher! Your passion shows in the care you put into setting up your classroom. Your students will feel very comfortable there. I still remember my first class like it was yesterday. I'm starting my 30th year tomorrow and the years have flown by. Enjoy it and good luck!
