Okay, here it goes. Writing my first blog, TAKE ONE. Where do I start? I guess I will start with my classroom. In previous years, my classroom was ocean themed, and I felt like I needed a change this year. I decided to go with an owl theme...Hence, the name of my blog, "Learning's a HOOT!" With the change in theme, I needed some new catchy sayings to put around the room. "Oceans of Good Work" just wouldn't quite work anymore. I chose "Hoot-Hoot-Hooray for Data," "Look Whooo's Read a Good Book," "Reading's a Hoot." My favorite part is the tree I made for my reading corner. For the tree, I used green and green polka-dotted (which I love) scrapbook paper for the leaves. I just drew and colored the owls on poster board. I also made some owls for the "Look Whooo's Read a Good Book" bulletin board. I used scrapbook paper and buttons for those owls.
Anyway, you've gotten a peek into my classroom. I hope to share my teaching ideas, experiences, successes, (and hopefully not failures) with you. Lots more to come!!!
