My Kindergarten Jungle

So here it is! My 1st home these days. Step inside and see where we live Monday through Friday from 7-5ish.

I love this classroom. It's my favorite so far. I love going to work. I really do love teaching Kindergarten. After the 1st 2 weeks were over I felt a since of extreme thankfulness. This is exactly where God has led me. Some day are so exhausting that I can't stand at the end....but most days I am just plain happy.

I definitely re-vamped my theme this year. I felt my Jungle needed and face lift. It needed a younger feel. Eric came to visit during pre-planning ad said that my Jungle would give him a seizure if he were 5. I disagree. Yes.....it is very loud, but the kids love it. They love having the teacher with the Zebra room. That' all that counts, as long as there are no seizures.

I had a lady order make my chair pockets. I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. Since we don't have desks, they are a great place to keep journals and supplies. Plus, they match really well, don't they?

Do you like my alphabet trees? I made them 6 years ago while I was student teaching. I am glad to get to use them again. And yes.....the red headed boy is the cutest.

Here is Jenna playing games with Jack at my desk. See the Sunflowers? They are actually PENS! I ove writing with flower pens. I made these myself. Fake flowers + green tape + pens + marbles + clay pot = flower-pen-vase-holder thingy.

Happy Times.
