Glitz, Glam, and Maybe Some Glitter! : October 2014

Well... 40 days into our school year & I'm just getting around to showing off my hard work! Better late than never, right!?

Our district theme this year is super heroes. (Right up my alley & my fiance's alley!) So, I went full force with it... Put in a lot of hours & I am THRILLED with how it turned out!

My classroom becomes my home for 10 months out of the year & I put a lot of effort into making it a place I enjoy being since I am there more than I am my own house that I pay a mortgage on! Oh, the life of a teacher! ;)

So, please enjoy this photo walk! I am super excited to share it! :)

This is my bulletin board outside of my classroom.

So proud of this! Took an idea I saw on Pintrest & developed on it!

Love my teal backpack buckets!

The superhero kid silhouettes I found on a Google search. The artist is Andy Fairhurst. I highly recommend you Google his work. It is so, so awesome! So, I took those silhouettes and drew the outlines the best I could & then painted inside the outlines to make the silhouettes pop. I am over the moon with how they came out. My kids love them too! Which is an added bonus!! I've always wanted a superhero theme in my room but hadn't quite figured out how to do it. So, with this having executed so spectacularly, I'm probably going to reuse this for a couple years!

Batman in the bathroom!

My reading table.

Handmade banners! (Have to take them down this week for the fire inspection! Boooooo!!) Any of my other teacher friends in other states/districts have to do the same??

My Olaf fridge!

Handmade name banner for my desk.

View from my classroom door.

My classroom door, color chart, and Baby Wonder Woman.

Paper drawers for each child & my quick attendance.

View from the front corner of my room. You can see my calendar area, my fantastic word wall that I saw on Kinder Kraze & made my own version of it. In fact, Maria at Kinder Kraze really inspired me with her classroom decor/theme. :)
