Classroom Reveal!

Teachers always seem to do these cute blog posts about their classroom after they have it all decorated, so here I am. Honestly, I just want to remember what my first ever classroom looked like 20 years down the road. If you're not up for it- don't look any farther!


Table Numbers under the lanterns


First shot of the classroom


My Hi-Five Board was something that came to me in my sleep. This is where my kids put the poster of our classroom rules we came up with together. Then, to have them have some accountability for the rules they each stamped their handprint and they are now hung on this board. I LOVE IT!!



Calendar and this is where I recently put our class job rotations. 


My aunts out did themselves on my rug. I am so lucky to have it! It really adds a lot to the classroom. 


Student Cubbies


Sink Area


Book Nook. I made the pillows myself with help from my aunt. I think total all four pillows cost around $25. My kids love them. It's been really fun to see them use this area. 


Another viewpoint. 


I wanted a unique way to label things so I decided to use Washi tape. You can't see the detail in this photo but it makes me happy in real life. 


Half of my classroom library. Organized by authors last name. 


Reading word wall.


This bulletin board turned out to be one of my favorites. I have each of the common core "I can" statements under each subject area. 


This is what it looked like before school started. Now where the table is has my rug and rocking chair. 


Science and Social Studies word wall


A closer look at the labels for my class library. I used my aunts Cricut to cut out the majority of the things in my classroom. 


Content Board. 


My behavior clip chart. It has worked wonders so far. I only go down because for the positive I use a different system. 

Well, folks! There she is! I am overall very happy and in love with my classroom space.

A Letter to Asher Rae.

Baby Asher, Your momma is currently in labor and in a few hours you'll make your grand debut into this world. From the moment I knew you were coming I was in shock and how much my heart could grow. I work with sweet children all day and I love them so much. The love I already have for you is so different. You'll be the first grandchild of my parents, and you'll be my first ever niece. You're coming into a world that is incredibly hard and difficult. With your amazing parents in your life you'll be taught how to be strong and to be valiant in all circumstances. Your dad, my brother, is an excellent human being. He is dedicated, he is a dreamer, he is a hard worker, and he will be the most amazing father. Your mom is so beautiful. She is loving, she is patient, and she loves your dad so much. Your grandma, my mom, is SO excited for you. She will love you and spoil you, but she will also help you when things get hard. Your Grandma Forsyth is a tough woman. The toughes...

COVID

The world of COVID-19 has been a world I never imagined possible. While this time has taken away so many things I am grateful for the things it has given me. I've found my new normal and for someone who loves structure that has been a huge relief. I don't feel the need to do as much. I don't feel as rushed. I dropped my ipad on the tile today and cracked the screen pretty badly and I didn't even cry. Things have become things and my trips to Target don't seem as crucial anymore. I've been sewing. I thank my grandmas and my aunts for their love of sewing that is now ingrained on my heart. I watch a lot of TV. I do a lot of cooking. Who knew?
