Back to School: Classroom Tour

Sunday, August 25, 2019


 Love my classroom library! It's such a cozy spot with reading buddies/ stuffed animals, pillows, and camping chairs! I have two shelves of leveled books & one shelf with miscellaneous books. Along the tops of two of the shelves I also have books my genre/author- biographies, non-fiction animal books, Franklin the Turtle books, social/emotional books, math books, etc. 



My students love their book baggies! They hold their readers workshop folders, lots of books, post-its, etc. They've all got name tags and a specific hook to return them to! I love this little tidbit of organization!


 

My kiddos may be second graders, but we all still love the listening center! I think it's a nice alternative to independent reading for them. It's great for them to hear fluent readers & be exposed to new vocab. Not to mention, they love hanging out under our tree & using stability cushions. Also, recently painted three crates to use for storage. I'm still debating what to use them for.... ideas?

 

My classroom's filled with flexible seating! On the left, we've got some new (refurbished) black stools at our raised computer table. I've never had a specific classroom theme... just colorful, I guess. So at our math table in the back I've got these rainbow stools from Amazon. There are similar stools for cheaper. I got mine about 4 years ago and they're still going strong! Also, inherited a new book shelf where I finally organized, sorted, and labeled all my math games & manipulatives.


I got myself a little back to school treat- a new planner from SHPplanners on Etsy. Be sure to add extra grade book pages if you order one! Every student got a little BTS treat too on the first day of school! :)


I don't know about y'all but this is how I survived the first week of school! HAHA

Best wishes to all for a wonderful school year!
