Getting ready


Getting my classroom ready is one of my favorite parts of the year. The past three years, the set up has been basically the same...not so this year! Having 2nd grade means lots of changes! I meant to take a "before" shot...these pics are sort of "in the middle shots" but by Monday, I think it will look quite a bit different! They delivered some of my desks and chairs today...so far I have 13 desks and 3 chairs. And they are NASTY! I wish I could just soak them in a pool of bleach for a while! I am also the type of person who likes things to match...obviously, that's not happening here...very few of them are even the same height! :) There's so much left to do...

Hey Angie!! Congratulations on finding out you will be in 2nd grade...I always thought I would love to teach 2nd grade, and I know Juli has loved it. By the way, Juli just taught me that I can leave a comment under the "anonymous" option, so I am going on to all my friends blogs to comment for the first time...how exciting!! I get so excited by the little things in life! Have fun setting up your classroom!
Love,
Natalie Lee

It looks great so far! That will be exciting to move from kindergarten to 2nd. I taught k for 3 years and then moved to 1st and was in love with it. Just that little bit of growth from year to year makes a huge difference! It's kind of neat to not teach them how to push in chairs and stand in a straight line! : ) Enjoy!
