I read the email and noticed the first box was mine! :) I was super excited! :) Gosh- I sure will try again- I sure can put that gift card to good use!
I stopped in my new room today and took a few pictures. I still have quite a bit to do. I have almost nothing on the walls yet and am waiting to bring in my super cute zebra reading center.
I LOVE all of the storage in my room!
I don't know what to do with the binders on the top (this is a new room and district so I don't know if I need them!)
Here is a peak at how I'm utilizing my sweet storage!
This is where I will store my math manipulatives. (I am an add on class and my materials haven't arrived yet!)
Here is where I keep my reading, science and social studies files.
Here are random items like party materials, publishing items, bags etc. I even have a bottom drawer left that I cannot choose what to store in there! :)
This is my technology cabinet. I have my scholastic movies, CDs, and will add my Lakeshore Interactive Whiteboard discs, headphones etc.
This has teacher items like post it notes and other supplies. The bottom will be used to store all of the Ziplock bags that the students will be bringing.
These are my lovely cubbies! I have 6 table groups so each table has a tub for math tool kits, table materials (after Open House it will be on the tables.), math materials (I heard EDM has workbooks) and writing materials. The bottom two rows hold writing materials for all students and word work materials for all students.
I cannot make up my mind of how to use this bulletin board! So it is blank for now! I also will probably move my teacher computer to this area as well and use my laptop for teacher use instead.
I LOVE this bookself! It has so many uses and tons of storage. I put my monthly theme books in the front. I store (I have to organize it a bit more) the other monthly these books in the back. Finally it has 3 slots of the the top where I keep clipboards, dry erase boards, dry erase markers and socks (erasers.)
This is my reflection center. In each labeled bag there are character education books and matching worksheets.
This is behind my desk. I keep my teaching manuals for math and writing (really only for substitutes since I have been making my lessons on Smartboard software) in the black organizer. The white drawers hold daily weekly materials. The two binders to the right are my Emergency First Grade Plans and my Substitute Binder.
This is my future word wall! I have made it pretty far if you can't tell. :)
These are my new popcorn number line strips. They still need to make their way on the wall.
These will go on the wall and I will add my Phonics Dance icons to go with it. :)
This needs to go on the wall too! As I introduce non-fiction features through my weekend news, I add a photo of it on one of the blue stars.
My Open House bins are ready to go! The top of each bin is labeled with the supplies that the students will be bringing. My desk has the large tubs for tissues, wipes and Ziplock bags. I didn't include my desk photo because you can't see right now what I normally keep on it. :)I also have two letters for open house with instructions for putting away supplies etc. I'll share that, my student and parent gifts and parent folders soon! :)
I am leaving for Las Vegas this weekend! :) Since no one guessed it- and so few guessed- I'm going to send my Grandparents Day item to all of you that attempted! :)
WATCH OUT FOR MY BLOG POST TOMORROW! I HAVE A HUGE GIVEAWAY STARTING! :)
Thanks! I look forward to receiving your packet and will be checking back in tomorrow to check out your giveaway. Have fun in Las Vegas!
