I'm always fascinated by the amount of time spent on decorating a classroom. I've had a monkey theme for so long now, I can barely remember what I did in my classroom before the monkeys invaded. So, as I slowly begin to think about packing up my classroom for the summer and put a few monkeys in the closet, (No, not the kids) I began to wonder what everyone else does to decorate their classroom. Do you have a theme? Or do you just keep it tidy & organized? Do you change your theme often? Please share your thoughts, cool ideas, and/or leave me a link if you have pictures! I'm a visual person. :-) The picture here shows my Reading corner, otherwise known as the "Jungle." It's a little difficult to see, but I have a cool tree hanging from the ceiling, along with vines wrapped around the area. Yes, I normally have student work displayed on the bulletin board in the jungle,...but with the state testing that just took place, I had to take everything DOWN and/or cover it up with newspaper, so it's currently BLANK. Looking forward to hearing what you do in your room. :-)
