Classroom.

We do a lot of sign language in my class so I was excited to find this sign.

One of my most favorite things in my classroom is the stuff hanging from the ceiling.

It's hard to appreciate in the pictures, but it really adds a bunch to the feel of the room!
Last year, we did a bunch of songs and I would let them choose their favorites ever once in a while - but when they chose 'Frosty the Snowman' in May, I decided to revamp the choosing process. This little juke box guy is going to help me limit their choices to only the songs and activities we have done that week.

I didn't like seeing the ugly back of the piano first thing when I walked into the room. I made the curtain (valance), the piano cover, and the curtains across the front of the shelving last year.



I wish I had taken a BEFORE picture. You will never be able to fully appreciate how much stuff came out of my room. THAT is the miracle of my lifetime. One day, 400 Little Tykes Playthings. 14 gillion dead crickets - yucko!
I am really looking forward to this schoolyear! I think the second year is going to go so much more smoothly than my first - and I positively cannot complain about the first year...

I just know what to expect and I have much more confidence.


Ok - that's all I have! Thanks for peeking into my music room!

It's about time! (I reverted to being mad at you for not telling me about your first day. But since it hasn't actually happened yet, I will subdue it.)

It's so fun. You have done a good job of accumulating so many decorations in just one year. Looks good.

What a great looking room! I think that if I were a teacher, one of my favorite parts would be decorating. I would probably spend my whole first month's salary on it. =)

Now we just need some pictures of you in action. Can one of those preschoolers take care of that?
