Classroom Done.

I've been a busy little bee this week. I got to the point this evening that I felt like I was just walking in circles and getting NOTHING done...so I made sure my room looked good for Monday and I had everything I needed...FOR MONDAY.  I figure I can worry about Tuesday and the rest of the week on....Monday??? It just seems like everything else in the world came up today and I got nothing done. Oh well...

Here is my room...ta da!

 View from the door
 Nametags. I decided to let them pick their seat this year. 
 Lockers. 
 My version of Math Workshops taken from Clutter Free Classroom. 
I loved this idea so I am trying it out with my 5th graders this year. 

 Computer Area.
 Reading Area.
 Back corner of the room, looking at the door.
My cosy little nest. '

That's it. I'm...whatever is worse than exhausted. I'm too tired to think of the word. Peace. I'm out. :)

    I love your room!! I do the black background as well. It really pops!! Where did you get the sassy ball thingys that are hanging?? They are very cute. I want to know more about the math workshop you have going on. Maybe you've already posted so I'll take a look around!

    @Julie...the post before this shows how I made the Tissue Paper Pom Pom things hanging. I've never done this Math Workshop so I'm really hoping it will work...I think it will. Click the link I gave and it will take you to where I got the idea from. I'll post more when I figure it all out myself. :)

    Your room looks perfect. I was right there with you last evening...walking in circles, working hard but spinning my wheels. My wish for you is that you'll have your very best year ever. Love you!!

    It looks great - I have the tissue paper "poofs" too! Love 'em :) I'm jealous of your accent walls. I wish I had something other than white, white, white!
