More classroom pics!

 

They loved finding the ten-frames in these colorful animal pictures.

This is a center for the pocket chart, but my pocket chart is occupied with a song right now sooooo we played on the table. (Worked just fine). These two centers are part of my September Bundle but can pretty much be used the whole year.

 

 I put this together for a few of my kiddos that need one-to-one correspondence practice.  The Lakeshore tweezers are awesome. I can't believe I use to use the really sharp ones before!! (Luckily nobody ever got poked!) I told them the only rule was not to use their fingers to grab any little pom poms.  Even if they fell on the floor...they had to use the tweezers to pick them up! They of course loved it.  This activity will help get them ready to write... I have a large group of kiddos that cannot grasp the pencil correctly yet....(7 kiddos!) But, that's okay....we will get there!!!  :) The little ice tray is from Family Dollar

 

Another fast and free counting center! They love the little counters!

 

Okay...I am off to bed now...I have gone to bed sooooo late every night that I can barely type....just in case my post didn't make sense...I apologize....but I need SLEEP!!!  Good night to all! Sweet dreams!

A Few Classroom Pics

I finally have time to post up a few pictures of my classroom from last year.  I really don't love the quality of the images...my iPad was acting up...and it's not the neatest that it could be, but these pictures were taken the last week of school :)

 It looks very dark in the home center, but they have a lamp and Christmas lights down there.  The kiddos pull out the small table when they go down there.

LOL... I know I know... a little messy...but these are 5 year olds. :)

 This is where I keep the books for independent reading.  I have another section for higher levels.

 More labeled book baskets...and where I keep the big books kids love.

These are the Wal-Mart ice cube trays that are wonderful for book bins. Need more!!!
