But today, I'm excited to finally show off my classroom!!!! Now, it's not perfect and there are definitely some things that still need to be worked on, but overall I am very happy with how it turned out!
This is standing at my door looking into the classroom. You can see I'm missing a ceiling tile by the windows. I have a wonderful little leak that continues to be an issue for me since we've had pretty regular rain for the past two weeks. I love my windows!!!!
Right inside my door to the left is my lunch count. I used little owl stickers on circle punches and wrote the students numbers on them. They have magnets on the back to stick to the filing cabinet. The lunch calendar for the month is hanging up. I didn't exactly think about the size of the lunch menu when designing this, but I think it looks cute and it's easy to take a lunch count in the morning.
This is my supply shelf. I love this utility shelf! I'd really like to cover it with some of that cute teal chevron contact paper, but that will have to come later. I'd also like to get some cute bins that all match, but I didn't want to spend the money on that this year... maybe next year!
This is my desk area. I really love this part of my classroom! I've made it my mission this year to leave every day with a clean desk. So far I've been able to do it! You can also see my little owl labels in the kids' cubbies. Aren't they cute? I kinda did a boo boo with my keep calm and hoot on on the front of my desk, but it works.
This is same area but from the side. You can see some of my MMI projects in this area. I love my multiplication numbers hanging on the wall. They have the multiples of each number up to 10 on the big number. I'll post more about those later.
This is my library. It's not exactly the prettiest, but since I don't teach literacy, I don't worry about it that much. The bulletin board on the back is going to be my math word wall, for all the vocabulary we learn. You can buy the labels here.
Above the library is our birthday owl wall. I've taken pictures of my kids and added them to the owls. they look so cute now! I need to take a picture and add it.
This is looking at the whole back wall from the front. My cubbies are split between two walls; you can see the other half here.
This is the far window wall. My windows look out to the playground and I love to watch all the kids play at recess. The drawers on the counter are my math manipulatives. I love having the drawers covered and labeled. I've never had them quite this organized. You can also see my team tubs on the desks. I got those at TJ Maxx for $3 each! They are the perfect size to hold some markers, glue, pens and erasers for each group!
This is the front wall/board of my room. This is my second favorite part of my room. There is so much room and I have a Smartboard!
This is a closeup of the left side of the board. I list our objectives and the days activities on this side. You can also see my rules here! I love how they turned out!
Even closer! I used my Cricut for just about all of this. It's the Mickey Mouse font. I love having my date displayed like this, makes changing the date super easy!
This is the right side of the board - the time/schedule section. I really want to make our schedule cute, but that hasn't happened yet. Maybe by October break... we'll see. You can buy the clock labels at my TpT store here.
Well, that's my classroom! There will always be projects in progress, but I think it's a great place to spend the year!
I'm also linking up with a Class*y Collaboration for their Cruise Around the Classroom. Go check out everyone's rooms!
I'm adding this post to Teacher Week '13!

Your room is lovely! I really like the turquoise & orange! I also love your multiplication numbers. What a great idea!
