And Here We Go...

This is it...the students are coming tomorrow for a full first day!  I can't even begin to count up the number of hours I spent in the room (and at home) getting ready, but I think I am finally there.  As always there are a few minor details to complete, but I can't do that until the kids arrive.  I'm so happy to be back in the classroom this year and even more thrilled that I have a small class size (smaller class size = more hands on activities!).  As promised here are pics of my [almost] finished classroom...enjoy! I'm not certain it is Pinterest-worthy, but it will do for now ;0).

Classroom Set-up

Ahhhh!  Where do I even begin?!?  The overwhelming feeling of having to unpack everything and make the room look Pinterest-worthy is giving me an anxiety attack.  Deep breath, and....okay...I do this every year...it will be okay.  Switching classrooms and grade levels can be scary, but it is a new adventure and I'm excited for it to begin!  Now, if I could just figure out where to start...

Is anyone else feeling this way?  I will post after pics...but here are a few more before pictures to help you feel better about tackling your classroom!

Alright...let's do this!
