First day in the classroom

School hasn't started yet, but I did have a chance to go into my classroom early and begin setting up. I thought it was really great to have the opportunity to be in the classroom at the very start putting the room together. It was fun thinking about where shelves and tables should go. Thinking about student's needs and what a functional classroom should look like took several times of rearranging, but we pretty much have the classroom set up in a way we are happy with. I am looking forward to the next couple of days of unpacking and learning all about what to expect when the students first arrive. Already I am learning a lot about Kindergarten profiling and specific Montessori strategies.
I think this will be a really great year!
