Ready or Not...

School is back in full swing on Tuesday. There is a lot left to do and some things won't get done by Tuesday, but I'm feeling okay with that right now. My room isn't perfect, but it's good enough for now. I've definitely made some progress in there.

Before:
After:

Pictures are a bit dark, I was getting ready to leave & had already turned the lights off!

Little classroom library area in progress
Blurry, but paper & borders are finally up.
Math materials organized & labeled
Calendar , easel, and Polyvision board area. I'm excited because I'm going to be using calendar notebooks with my kids this year and using the Smart board for Calendar time. I was able to embed days of the week, ABC songs, etc. into the calendar program. Fun!

The first day is always so stressful- having new kids enroll & get added to the class list throughout the morning, making sure I know how kids are getting home, making sure no one pees their pants...

I will be glad when the first month of school is over and we're into a good routine! As of now, I'm excited to meet all my kinders!

  4. I'm pretty sure I would love having carpet! Whenever the kids move in their chairs (which is ALL the time in kinder) it makes so much noise on the floor! Drives me crazy!

    Have a great first day!!
