This week, we had the agreement to put everything back in our classroom after the walls and ceilings were painted, and floors have been waxed.
It was overwhelming for a while, thinking where everything was and where they should be placed.
Chairs stacked pictures down, cans and batteries piles.
Where at begin?
I started on one side of the room and my co-teacher began on the other side. We moved furniture to their destination, sometimes rearranging several times until he felt "right".
Our Weather Map. You can read how we use here.
Pocket graphics and pictures were hung.
The beginning of our colored cloth collection.
Little Lamps and details have been established up.

Block Shelf
And he started coming together!
With added curtains to add a little sweetness, but still let in light through.
There's still more to do, like putting name cards of children in various parts of the room, adding a few more labels, tweaking things here and there. But it will be ready for the open house Wednesday!
