Whole Brain Teaching Posters and a Peek in my Room!

So I finally finished my Whole Brain Teaching Starter Set and it is available to download free in both of my shops! The links are included at the end of the post. You MUST check out what I've been up to in my classroom!


You will see some of the items from the set in my classroom previews in the next part of this post! 

Sooo....I am still not ready to reveal my WHOLE room because I MIGHT be anal about what certain things still look like so here are a ton of pictures of things that I have hanging up or just projects I have done.

 And by Kristen, I mean Ladybugs Teacher Files! You can get her labels HERE! And if you love Amy's number words as much as me, you can get those HERE!



 I'm still debating about leaving the black on the inside of some of the letters. My colleague said she likes it, but I'm still not sure how I feel about it. I know...I am OCD.
 I saw someone post recently about their very posh READ sign with ribbon and I decided to do a spin off of that! I cut out my letters and then I cut out giant circles with my Cameo of course! I glued the letters down and then outlined the circle and the outside of the letters with a white paint pen. I think they came out cute! You can see the finished product in the preview below!


As I am looking at the picture of my Super Improvers Wall, I'm thinking it's totally getting crooked as it goes down! Ahhh!! And it's upside down! Geez... Something I'll have to fix this week...lol

I am not quite finished with those pencil baskets yet. I will share more about those later! 

If you wish to download the WBT Starter Set, you can click either of my shop links below!


My first OFFICIAL day back is tomorrow! The day will be filled with staff meetings for back to school! YAY! ;) 

Hopefully I will have some time after meetings to work some more in my room so I can do the final reveal soon! Meet the teacher is Monday so it will DEFINITELY have to be ready by then! 

Happy HUMP Day everyone!!

  10. Your room looks great! I am doing a zebra theme too :)
    I really like the cirle genre labels with the zebra pattern on it. Were they from Ladybug's Teacher Files? I looked on her TPT and TN and couldn't find them.

  21. Thank you for sharing your WBT posters! I was introduced to WBT last year and the students really LOVE it. I can't wait to hang your posters in my classroom next week. :)

  22. I use velcro tape and attach those little baskets to their desks. It really cuts down on pencils falling on the floor and kids digging in their desks for supplies. I have used them for years. They are great.
