Ok, folks, here it is. Thanks for being patient with me while I was off playing. Yesterday started with a parade, ended with fireworks, with all sorts of fun and deliciousness in between - a perfect day, but truly without a single moment to share the next #kinderblog2012 assignment. Without any further ado:
Tell us about one (or two, or a few) of the classrooms you have had over the years. Not the kids, the ROOMS. What have you loved? What have you hated? How did you FEEL in the space? What did you DO with the space that, looking back, seems ridiculous? Or brilliant? We all spend so much time in our classrooms, we really do develop a relationship with the physical space. Tell us about that (those) relationship(s).
Also, a reminder: when your post is done, please post a link in the comments here, as well as tweeting it out using the #kinderblog2012 hashtag. We are desperately trying to get a sense of how many people are participating, and having everything rounded up in one place helps a lot.
Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed so far, and if you're just joining us: come on in, the water is fiiiiine!
Smiles and Sunshine;

Just attempting to get myself acquainted with this ongoing series. AWESOME. Let me start off by saying I am NOT a K teacher, but spend much of my time 'visiting' K classes around the US as an author + illustrator of picture books.
ReplyDeleteMy current post is an over-view of vignettes I have captured in classrooms I've visited of how teachers have their goodies organized. Here's the link: http://rainbowswithinreach.blogspot.com/2012/07/organization-in-classroom.html
I'll see if I can get organized sufficiently to see next week's challenge and see if I can contribute from my own vantage point.
