Two days into first grade and I am loving it!
Thanks to my new teaching partner, Kelley, I was introduced to the world of TEACHER blogs back in June.  Needless to say, I spent the bulk of my summer blog hopping, preparing for my move from 4th grade to 1st. I was able to gather so many creative ideas from educators all over the Internet. Wow... the resources are incredible.!!! Unfortunately, I spent way too much money purchasing lessons, units, fonts, and digital clip art in the process. Oh well... what are you going to do???

Clip chart behavior board, Mr. Munch the shark, and book boxes
Anyway... two weeks ago, after months of becoming emmersed in all things first grade, I finally got the keys to my new classroom -  AKA (PIER 3). Below are a few pictures of what I did have the chance to set up before school started as I prepared to meet my new "CREW". This is the 3rd nautical-themed classroom I have had - Once in 5th, once in 4th, and now... finally in first. I just love how it lends itself to all grade levels and there is just something so fun, yet relaxing about this "boat" inspired theme.

  6. Great decor and ideas! Hope this message reaches you...I was wondering where you purchased or found the anchor on the "anchor words" bulletin board.
