Getting Ready for School...

I love this time of year when a new school session begins.  The excitement, the anticipation, the preparation, and the energy.  So this is what my classroom looked like when I returned. 

I love how clean everything is, but it is a lot of work to get it ready and organized before August 11!  Yikes it is in 12 days!  So far I have my entrance wall finished, my calendar started, and my ceiling decorated.  I want it to be a happy place to learn and work.

I painted my old mailbox so now it looks beautiful.

I put colored masking tape on the edges to help the children find the right box.  I will also attach their pictures with Velcro. 
I made new calendar pieces and attached them to my magnetic calendar board that I purchased from Wal-mart.

 

 

I will post more as soon as I get more completed.  I hope you like it.  I can't wait to meet my new class!
