Classroom Pictures

The last few days I have been working on my classroom. I love having a room to decorate.



Here is our reading tent. It is made with curtains, ribbons and a hula hoop. The kids love it.



The Dollar Tree had some nice and easy bulletin board pieces. It was a lot simpler than my boards I did last year.

This bulletin board is not finished. I am going to add pictures of the kids and their families. The kids love seeing family pictures in the room.


Simple shapes cut from construction paper.




I am so excited about this year, I know it is going to be great fun.

I love your room. I am getting my teaching license and already run a daycare/preschool. Your post just makes me excited for being in an elementary school setting and putting together my classroom! Thanks for the inspiration!

Everything looks so bright and cheerful! I love the reading tent - we're getting one of those (except not as cool as yours) for our book nook. Here's to another great preschool year!

I love that you're decorating with music, but please consider turning the notes and treble clef on the left side of your board to face the correct way. I know you did it to be symmetrical, but notes just do not ever face that way in music. It would be the same as putting up the alphabet backwards on one side. I hope I do not sound rude here, just a slightly neurotic music teacher.

Your room does look excellent, though!

Thank you for sharing your ideas. I am about to start teaching 3 year old preschool at our church and was in the middle of setting up my room when I saw your post. I love the reading tent idea. I made one for my room and I think it will work perfectly.

Super Easy Volcanos

Image
I love this project it is so easy and only takes a short amount of prep time. Cheyanne loves making the volcano erupt. We used: plastic plate, plastic cup, aluminium foil, tape, vinegar, baking soda and red food coloring. Tape the bottom of the cup to the center of the plate. Cover with aluminium foil. Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

Fall Toilet Paper Roll Tree

Image
This is a great craft for even young children. I think it turned out so cute. You will need: Red, yellow and orange paint, scissors, toilet paper roll, and green construction paper (or card stock). Cut the green paper into the shape of the tree top. Use fingerprints dipped in the paint as Fall leaves. Cut 2 slits down, across from each other on the toilet paper roll. Slide tree top into those slits.

Book Chain

Image
Scribbit's Winter Bazaar Rocks in My Dryers , Works For Me Wednesday When my daughter was learning to read, we started a book chain. Every time she read a book we added a link. She was so excited to see her chain grow. It eventually went around her room. She was always so proud. Colton is starting to read books, so we started his book chain today. He too was excited to add his links. I thought I would share this, maybe it will encourage you little ones to read. I am always looking for ways to encourage my kids to read, do you have any tips that you use? If so please let me know.
