Welcome To Our Classroom

Another year has begun... we are 8 days in! I wanted to share the "current status" of our room.  I am LOVING it, but I am not finished.  I want this room to feel like home. My focus this year has been collaboration areas. We have our U table, a round table, a coffee table, pub table, and made the switch from desks to student tables this year. The biggest struggle has been finding storage areas. For now the students use their mailboxes for all notebooks, folders, and workbooks. They are using bins on the floor for all pencil cases, so they are close. We have pencil holders for the middle table, and finally some square bins for their reading books. It will be a continuous work in progress but we are getting there. Our next change, some lamps for a more soothing feeling. I am beyond excited to see how the year will work out.
