Classroom Set-Up (Then & Now)

I'm excited to share link up with Kristin over at Little Miss Glamour Goes to Kindergarten and share my first and current classroom. My first room was a teeny tiny room that had once been used for storage, a counselor's office, and who knows what else! That year I worked with small groups of 3-4 students at a time providing literacy interventions for ELL students and at the time I LOVED my room! When I look at the pictures now I giggle at how little I had! Most of the room was made up of donations from the AMAZING kindergarten teachers there who I had done my student teaching with and my mom who had been spending her Scholastic points for the past 4 years on books to jumpstart my classroom library. LOVE THEM! This year my third grade classroom had a sweet shoppe theme and thanks to Pinterest, teaching blogs, and friends I was really happy with it!! First Year 2009-2010 My first little teacher desk AND...that's the rest of the room! Like I said, teeny-tiny! I didn't like the color of those shelves, but they were SO nice to have to store all of my the stuff that was donated to me. This Year 2012-2013 Classroom library ( I love those lanterns) CAFE Menu and some cute lollipops Word Work Station I really did love my classroom this year, but am excited to make some tweaks for next year! Thanks for checking out my room and be sure to head over to Little Miss Glamour Goes to Kindergarten to check out more transformations :)
