I was so proud last week to have finished re-arranging my room. Setting everything up just the way I wanted... THEN TODAY HAPPENED!
I went into the classroom to drop off some items that were shipped to me, mostly books, but also some command strips and contact paper for decorations. So I started to decorate. As I put up my color wheel and color families information I was happy to see how it was coming out. And then I moved onto putting contact paper on my desk to decorate. As I added it I realized I had ordered too much. Looking around the room I remembered the wonderful paper cabinet I had hidden because it looked ill-kept. I became determined to make it look better. I used the second roll on the cabinet only to realize now it was too nice to hide. I moved things around about three times and settled on putting two cabinets side by side and removing two pieces of furniture I really didn't have any intention of doing... thankfully I just learned how to get rid of these effectively... Then I had to move the mobile display boards. These are awesome to have, but are TRULY obnoxious! In all seriousness, who designed these? They can't be stacked they can't be pushed together with any ease... they are just there! and I don't have room for them in all reality... although as I type this I am thinking I have an idea... new plans are hatching and maybe later this week I will head in to fix this..
As I continued to arrange things I had two of my co-workers pop their heads in. One I had met before but sadly I am terrible with names and I have completely forgotten it... the other was a kindergarten teacher. They were both very excited as they looked around the room, they commented on how good it was looking and how far it had come along. The kindergarten teacher did notice my tables which I had split into six sections using electrical tape. She commented that it was a good idea for me to divide the space, especially for the younger grades so they don't try to use too much of the table. The only statement they made was that we might only need 4 per table (Enough for 24 instead of 36). I debated how to handle that and realized that I think that I could easily move the horizontal tape to make four sections instead or I could use two sections for supplies... I am still debating. Each section is currently 18x24... So I think it would be big enough... I guess I will have to wait for my class lists.
I did forget my camera today so I wasn't able to take any photos. I won't go in until Thursday most likely so no pictures until then. I am also debating if I should order two more rolls of contact paper... I will look on amazon tonight.
