This week, I started revamping my classroom for a new school year. I still have loads of work to do, but after three days I was pretty excited about my progress. Now, before I scoot over to Columbia (the greatest city) for the Wittenborn wedding... take a peak at my classroom library!
Here we have the nonfiction shelf. My nonfiction books are separated into categories and/or authors.
This poster is making it's grand debut in my room. How about that for motivation? You're in good company!
Oh, Abe.
This year, I wanted more of a "nook" feel. I angled the bookshelves a tad and viola!
I must add, by "I", I mean myself and the lovely Mrs. Musick across the hall moved bookshelves. It took a couple tries!
We have a nook.
These little chairs were the best investment. I just bought the red one to add to my collection this year. My kids love them. Plus, the inside is a great place to store stuff.
Notice the angle? The TIGERS banner is on the end of one shelf that closes the nook.
Take a few steps back and you now have the supply shelf with an awesome view of Alaska.
I jumped up on the computer desks (shhh! don't tell) and snapped a photo from above. You can see we have Alaska to our right, clouds straight ahead, and a library that is ready for day one.
Remember these clouds? They are hanging out above the apple tree until we're ready for them!
Your library nook looks great! I bought the same poster a couple of days ago and can't wait to put it up in my room!!
ReplyDeleteLove the poster. What company makes it?
ReplyDeleteThanks,

GREAT question! I'll check when I get back to school, but I'm not sure it says on it. I bought it at our local teacher store!
DeleteDid you mean to write "peek" into my library?
ReplyDeleteOops! I guess I was just too excited about my library to spell check. Good catch!
DeleteIt looks super cute Jordon!
