My Classroom 2020

The carpet I made to reinforce vocab during the reading and writing workshop.
Seats I made from old tires, carpet circles from Ikea, and nautical rope from Home Depot. Students loved them! One of the many flexible seating options they have to choose from.

                    Independent reading spots and small group book talk area.


Student seating areas...flexible seating options at tables... student's choice.

Life is a Mathterpiece Board...Students share real-world math experiences from home each day during morning meetings. 

Flexible seating option...bistro table and stools


Front board containing Daily Schedule, ELA and Math Goals for the Day, 
and List of Materials needed for gathering for minilessons during
