This time of year is busy, exciting, and exhausting. Did I say exhausting? There are so many little details that go into getting the classroom ready. Although I am not "officially" back at work, I am going in this week because I won't have all the time I need to get ready next week. I am excited with the way my room is coming together. It's the first year that many of my things (border, paper, bulletin boards, bins, etc.) coordinate. My room has a mix of white, blues and greens (LIME! Love it!) and it feels calming. As for a theme, I have cats and dogs. You may be wondering how that goes with the color scheme, but let me tell you... it works! I don't know how, but it does. I didn't want to go the primary color route that would have worked well with cats and dogs too. I am also realizing just how OCD I really am. I actually took down part of a bulletin board because the border wasn't straight enough. I also spent an hour tripling the border around my math wall! Ugh! I drive myself crazy. Pictures will come soon.
Do you have a theme or color scheme, or both?
