You have seen parts and pieces of my theme in different posts, but by seeing them here you might get a better idea of what things might look like. I am doing a forest animal theme using the colors chocolate brown, green, light blue and pops of yellow.
Here is a look at the character accent pieces I plan to hang around my room. I will set up a "scene" on my hallway bulletin board and the rest will go in my room in various places like between the windows, in the corners of mock bulletin boards, or wherever else there is an awkward, empty space. This picture only shows a portion of what I made because I couldn't fit them all in the frame. I made multiples of each animal in different sizes.
Here are the borders I plan to use:
I made this wreath as my door sign:
Another sign to hang next to my desk:
A reminder sign for students:
A recycle box and name sticks (which I call "fair sticks"):
As for my behavior chart, desk nameplates, etc I simply don't have photos available. But I can tell you that I made a polka dot behavior chart using some borders my brother made me and I buy my desk nameplates at JoAnn's with a coupon and my teacher discount card-a whole pack for about $2. So cheap!!
There are more things I could bombard you with, but these items give you a good idea of my theme and what it might look like when it all comes together. What do you plan on doing with your classroom space next year?
Don't forget to link up with Corinna!
