I can't even begin to tell you how jealous I am of everyone getting into their classrooms already to set up. (Yes, I do realize some of you start school sooner, but I'm just jealous!)
And if Abby, at The Inspired Apple doesn't stop coming up with the MOST **adorable** ideas for decorating her room, I might have to put reading her blog on hold until I'm in my own room! (just kidding, I could never stop reading her blog!)
BUT I was at school on Monday for a meeting and of course had to sneak down to my room. I moved classrooms at the end of the year & then they were painting the walls, so everything is a d.i.s.a.s.t.e.r. and I am by no means exaggerating the term! I snapped some photos to share & have as my before photos.
Here is what you see when you're standing right in my doorway. My room this year is a little bit bigger (I believe), but the layout is **SO** not pre-school friendly!

I would love to get rid of that globe. I don't use it, but apparently there is an abundance of unused globes in our building & no one wants it! |
Here is a shot from standing over by the windows you see on the right.
One last photo I have from standing on the steps to the loft.
So, as you can see. I have quite the mess on my hands. That big piece with the cabinets where the TV is does not move either.
I would love suggestions, ideas, or stories about having a loft in your classroom. Do you love it, hate it? Do you even let you students use it?!
