I know it's been a bit quiet around here, but recently my school moved to a different location. And with a new school came a new classroom. The space I have now is almost triple the size of what I had before (my old room was tiny!), so I'm really excited!
I've been making many small and large projects to liven up my room and transform it into a place both my students and I will enjoy. Since I teach gifted students, I've always thought of my kids as young yet wise little beings which led me to choose owls as my classroom theme.
Here's a peek at my most recent project that I'm making for my classroom library:
I was inspired by the owl designs of Susan Winget. She's created some wonderful owl decor for classrooms.
I used craft paper and acrylic paints to paint my owl poster.
Once I finish this pretty, I'll be making a large scroll sign that reads "Owl Library" (the kids came up with the name) and it will placed over the library. I'll be posting a mini tour of my classroom, along with a smattering of easy, quick, and budget-friendly DIYs for all you thrifty teachers, so stay tuned! Sue
