BULLETIN BOARDS



I spent the morning in my new classroom setting up the space. I did a bunch of stuff, but I was most excited about papering and bordering my bulletin boards. The reason I was so pumped is that I purchased three new exciting borders. I decided to use the leopard print border on the board closest to my desk. YES!

In between the bulletin boards, I fiddled around with my desks. My problem is that I feel like the room has more of a table vibe, and I'm not sure how to arrange the desks. I tried a semicircle and I tried rows, but neither of those arrangements seemed right. I'll probably try a few more things.

I put mine in groups of threes since it seems similar to tables... Enjoy your new room and school.

Groups of three might work. I'll give that a go today. Thanks, mm!!

For some reason, it won't let me comment through the Google, so I'm posting this anonymously (it's ProntoPup). I hope Shef stops in while you're trying out these new layouts - he could consult...

I'm still trying to come up with a good bulletin board. I need to find a college student that likes to do BB because I don't really enjoy making them.

I've got some ideas for bulletin boards. Loving this border.

I miss bulletin boards. Maybe I'll put some in Sam's room. He'll probably get annoyed with that some day, but right now he can't talk.

The border is to die for. LOVE it!! I'm happy to do the boards because in MS, people care about them more in HS. Also, mm, the pods work great! I have groups of three and four, and i heart it.

My comment didn't make any sense. MS teachers care MORE ABOUT BOARS THAN in HS.
