So, I thought all day about what I wanted to post today, but I forgot to take a picture at school, so maybe tomorrow. I thought I'd share a few things I use to organize my students and me, but definitely easier to explain with pictures.
Since I forgot to take pictures, I'll show you my classroom instead :) Every 3 or 4 years I change my theme. Right now, my theme is farm. I have to say it is my favorite theme I've done. There's so much I can do with it, plus it's bright and colorful. I'm even considering keeping it for awhile.
Anyway, below are pictures with some commentary :) Let me know what you think and feel free to share the themes you have tried or want to try in the future :)

The barn is the main bulletin board in my classroom. The black parts of the barn are laminated posters. I hot glued magnets to them to hold all of our math vocabulary cards. Also, I have the desks in my room pushed against walls. My room looks MUCH bigger. Most mornings I sit at the table you see in the center of my room. I even take attendance from there using my iPad. |

This is where I keep up with discipline. Instead of moving clips, my students move corn. I hot glued magnets to the tractor and to the back of the corn. This is the back of a set of cubbies, so it's in view, but it's also out of the way. |

This is a close up of the center of my barn. I always keep the days of the week and months of the year here. We don't really do Calendar Math anymore, but I still think it's important for my students to have these words available. This set is available on my TPT site. |
Hope you like my room! I will try to have a few organization pictures tomorrow. One day this week I also hope to show you a few of the things I found on Pinterest and pictures of how my versions turned out. It's funny because I have only been on Pinterest for around a year and I can barely remember life before Pinterest. The E Cards alone are enough to keep me visiting!
Have a Terrific Tuesday!
