The End of Another School Year

This year has been very crazy. I moved five times in one school year and lost five out the six leadership classes I created, but gain three AVID classes, and two service learning sections.  My last classroom was partial design by my AVID partner because I moved into her room and she had to move into another room to replace a teacher who left in the beginning year.  See I told you, it was crazy.  My current room is smaller, but I made it to my liking and you know Pinterest was my inspiration.

The classroom was set up for Philosophical Chairs.  The students worked hard to prepare for this assignment and they were excited to express their point of view based on supported facts.

The design of the bulletin board was done by my AVID partner and the work that was posted on the board was great.  The student wrote a memoir of an event on their timeline, but I added a twist. Students had to create that particular memory as art work based on Faith Ringgold book Tar Beach. 

This area of the room is the Students' Center.   They have their basic supplies, they turn their completed work in the trays and also get information on different colleges when needed. 

Our district uses the classroom management called CHAMP (Conversation, Help, Activity, Movement, Participation).  The letters are being held up by self stick magnets.

This is my favorite area because it is mine and students are not allow back here.
