Back to School Sales

While shopping for my own children, I found the Target dollar bins very intriguing. Last year, I bought the small pocket charts and they have worked out great in my classroom. Also, I bought the gradebook for a dollar. The only negative thing I found with the gradebook was the it wasn't durable for the entire school year. Basically, my started to fall apart around late April/early May. Target has them again, but they look a bit more durable. For a buck, who can resist?! We have our grades in an online system, however, we have to keep a paper file just in case.

Alas, I am thinking of how I want to set up my room for the new year. At the beginning of the previous year, I had a utility cart holding my laptop and project/monitor for the Smartboard. Now the projector is mounted to the ceiling, I have a LOT more room. Of course, I really need to see how many students I will have before finalizing the design.

I love created classroom desk arrangements!! Stay tuned to see pics of my classroom for the new year.
