Classroom Scavenger Hunt

Today we took our first performance test on reading in the computer lab, but afterward, we finally were able to begin our classroom scavenger hunt to get better acquainted with the room!

23 days left!

I've spent all day yesterday and today working on the classroom, and I can't believe there are only 23 days left until the first day of school! While it's been a wonderful summer so far,  I'm really looking forward to the new school year!

Here are a few new pictures of our classroom, which is slowly--but surely--transforming into an incredible learning place for all the upcoming 5th graders in Room 121. Enjoy!

Our school theme this year is "Futures Under Construction," 
so I created this bulletin board to display right outside our classroom



 Reading Space #1: a moon chair, a camping chair, two large pillows, a tiger, a beach chair, and a mini crate seat


Reading Space #2: a moon chair, a crate seat, 
a body pillow seat, and a mini crate seat

Reading Space #3: a crate seat, a giant sea turtle, 
a lounge pillow, and a beach chair
