Classroom Reveal 2014-2015

I finally tried to tidy up my room a bit this afternoon so I can have a little photo sesh with my classroom! I went with bold and bright colors as the insipiration for my theme. Looking at several of these pictures, I think it could use even more color! My last classroom had one colored wall which I think really added to the room. This new room still feels a little unfinished because there is so much white. I'm still working on little projects and posters for the walls, but here is my little home away from home that I have been working in for the past three weeks!

 The top panoramic photograph is from the door looking into the room. The one on the bottom is from the back corner where the library is facing the front.

DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THESE PICTURES! THIS ROOM IS ACTUALLY NOT BIG AT ALL. THE PANORAMIC FEATURE ON MY IPHONE JUST MAKES IT SEEM HUGE! I still love the room though despite it's smallness! haha
 This panoramic is from the other corner where the cubbies are facing the front of the room.
 I absolutely love all of the cubby and storage space in this classroom! 

 I have almost one whole wall of my classroom that is covered by a whitebaord. I love having all the space to have posters, charts, and to display my schedule and homework!
 I saw this little idea with the clothespins somewhere and I just had to recreate my own! They turned out super cute!
 You may notice that some of my crate seats got a little fabric makeover to match my new theme. I still have to cover the two under my circle table. I have some beautiful bright yellow chevron fabric that I plan on covering them with, buuuut I just haven't found the time to cover them yet.


My sweet blogger friend Katie King from Queen of the First Grade Jungle used ribbon to decorate her desk caddies and so I stole her cute idea! These caddies came from Walmart!
You can see the huge transformation the room has undergone. It was a lot of work, but I am happy with the way that it has turned out. 

I am sorry it took me so long to share this with you! 

And this week has been all about rounding! Here are some pictures of my classes playing Rounding Cover Up, which I snagged from a guest blogger on the Teaching In High Heels blog!




Next week, we will be moving on to properties of addition so I'll be back to share more on that later!

Have a great weekend!

  1. I love your room! I get jealous when I hear the amount of time teachers were able to complete their rooms. I only had 3 full days and a few hours spread out over two days during staff development. So I'm still working on my room even though school began on Tuesday.

    We're departmentalized this year as well, and I love the idea of Velcro name tags. If I don't do it this year, I'm going to store this idea for next year.

    1. My room really doesn't have as much space as it seems!! I wish! The panoramic camera feature just made it look that way. It's actually one of the smallest in my school! =( But I still love it!

    1. I used the font KG Summer Sunshine Blackout in Powerpoint. I typed one letter per page and just changed the color of each letter. Then laminated and cut them out! =)
