2015-2016 Classroom Photos!

Okay so technically I don't actually go back to work for preplanning until Monday.. but I've spent a good amount of time already in my classroom this summer.
I was really fortunate in getting my new position as the art teacher at a brand new elementary school in my county. That means new building, new furniture, new students, new adventures, and....starting from scratch. :)
This is what my new classroom looked like a month ago.
This is what it looks like now! :)
Moved over a bit.

I'm so excited to get the new year started!
I think my favorite part of my new room is that I finally have enough room to be able to separate my tables enough to allow for 4 students at a stand-alone table! Hooray!

...Oh... and my GIANT windows!! :)

LETS GO YEAR 4!

  2. Congrats on your beautiful new space! Enjoy! Would you mind sharing your "art jobs"? I want to tweak mine and need new ideas.

    I love, love, love your blog! I'm back to teaching art after a 13 year raising-my-own-kids break and need all the help I can get. Your blog has it all. : ) Thank you!

  3. Your room looks fabulous! Thanks for sharing it. Which type of tape works best for your tables? Duct tape? Electrical tape? The fire department made me take down my hanging color mobiles, so I'm looking for a new way to identify table colors. Thanks.

    1. I just use colored masking tape (like this: http://shop.schoolbox.com/index.php?route=product/product&keyword=tape&product_id=23703). It leaves the least amount of residue on the table.
      The only problem is that kids LOVE to pick at it.. so you need to be on top of that to prevent it from happening and plan on replacing the tape at least once or twice each school year. :)
