All Systems Go for the First Day

After nearly two weeks of preparation in my classroom, I'm finally ready for the first day of school.  My classroom is organized and inviting (at least I think so), though by no means "finished".  I need my new friends for that.  Their creativity and critical thinking will fill in all of the blank spaces in the room, and that is the really exciting part.

I spent a couple of hours on Saturday doing the final clean up and preparation of plans and materials for the week.  Here's how my room looked when I was finally ready to leave:







There you have it!  All set for my new little friends to walk in the door.  I'm sure it'll never be this clean again, but that's ok.  A lot of work will be happening in the room over the next 180 school days.  Wish me luck as I attempt to get my new students to think and grow more than they think possible.

  1. I like the way your room looks with the tables. I think it opened things up a ton! Have fun today. I'll be thinking of you.
