New Year, New School, New Blog!

So I've clearly been slacking on this blog thing but I'm hoping to really stick to it this year! I just accepted a new job at a Catholic school teaching kindergarten and I'm so excited! I loved my class and co teacher last year but I'm so excited to have a classroom that's all my own. I was able to get in today for the first time to see what my room looks like and what I have to work with. Here are some of the before pictures of my classroom. This is what I saw as soon as I walked in before moving things around and taking things off the walls. 

This is the back corner of my room. I love that I have a kidney table. 

This is the other back corner where I hope to put a rug and maybe a classroom library. 

Front of the room complete with a smartboard! 

How amazing are these built ins?! 

Coat room plus additional storage space

I'm in love with the hardwood floors and the space in general. I can't wait to start the actual set up and post some picture of the finished product!
