Sigh{s} of Relief!

Oh.dear.goodness. I haven’t updated in forever! I seriously don’t know where the time went – but May had so many activities that overtook my life that it wasn’t even funny! Field trips, parent luncheons, graduation, last day, etc.

My nephew’s 1st birthday party was also this weekend – so we did some major prep work for that! I would love to be a graphic designer in my next life – there are so many different items that can be created to spruce up a party. :)

Such a cutie patootie. Love him!

I am in summer mode – but before I get there, I have to pack up my entire room. Yes. The.Entire.Room. We have to put everything away, uncover every bulletin board and stack all of our furniture in one corner. Major ugh.

I took some final pictures of my room – hopefully I can remember this post come August and it will help me with the layout.

I’m super lucky to have an amazingly large classroom. I’m also somewhat of an obsessive classroom buyer – so I continue to buy and buy so I can fill it all up!

My library. I’m not lying when I say I’m slightly obsessed with books!

Left board is what we are focusing on in reading and right side is calendar.

Our circle/rug area. Such a central part of the classroom.

My desk area and Working with Words station…don’t judge that it’s slightly messy!

I still haven’t found a perfect way to organize my skill specific activities, but these drawers have helped. Writing center is in the back of the room.

Small group area with word wall and binders for student assessments. Math corner houses all of my math manipulatives – easy for on the go access.

Free choice and recess area. Blocks, legos, etc. You know, the items that kids should be able to use in Kindergarten?!?

The picture on the right is the backside of my shelving units – it’s amazing what some butcher paper and border can add to the overall look of a classroom!

Are you finished? Almost there? Hopefully so and then we all can relax, spend time on Pinterest and get those projects going that we all have on our to-do list!

Don't Fall Over...But I'm Writing a Post...

Shut the front door. Is it bad that I haven't written a post in for.ever.? I almost didn't remember how to get to Blogger. Okay, it ...
