Open House and More

Well the rocker was backordered and thought was shipped, but it is now on it's way (hopefully). I decided to share with you my open house "stuff" I did. I am so glad to get on here again, I thought the 1st week of school would never slow down and give me a chance. I am loving my students and to enlighten their little minds with lots a of new stuff and most of all, God's Word. Here is the first pic:

 

 

I went with the monsters theme again because our PT store had them all on clearance at the end of last year. I already had some so I picked up more for el cheapo prices! This pic shows my display on my back table. Now onto the next for up close and personal:

 

 

 

 

Yes, they are "Monsteriffic!" and I did have parents take more than one. Yay!

Next!:

 

 

 

Even though I knew I probably wouldn't get these, my tactics were for them to join the PTO so I can! For every parent that joins the PTO from my classroom, the PTO gives me $20 for my classroom! Whoop! Whoop! Next:

 

 

 

 

This is what I put on their desks. Thanks to pins from pinterest, I have my student treast, and my behavior system with a magnetic one for the parents to put on the fridge! (Thanks to cupcakesforateacher!) And as you can see the PTO info is handy! :)That is all my open house stuff, and it turned out great. Now I just want to share some other things I did in my classroom:

 

 

 

 

This is my updated art area! I took a cubby shelf I got from Family Dollar and used my zebra contact paper to make it more fun. Added the paper towel holder and a little organization and voila!

 

 

 

 

I had a floor chalkboard but because my room is on the small side I decided to put one on the wall. I bought it from Hobby Lobby and painted the wood frame red. The curtain held up by contact hooks have clothespins to be able to hold artwork. I can't wait to put up their artwork! Well, that's all for now, but I plan to be back sooner than later!
