When my new fourth graders walked into my classroom on First Day, I had a table placed by the door with these brochures. There was a sign (not pictured) that explained these brochures were created by last year's fourth grade students for them. My students were so excited to learn about fourth grade and about their teacher! Here were a couple responses...
I was very busy this summer being on vacation and all, but like all teachers, I did do a lot of work! Not only did I work with the fourth grade team in my district to align our curriculum to the Common Core, I totally revamped my classroom! I'd have to say, the new layout and decorations make my classroom much more welcoming and it is a more friendly learning environment.
Here are a few pictures of my newly decorated classroom!
