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.
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.
