MY LIGHTBOX
REFURBISHED!
I've had this rolling cart in my room for years. Since I no longer have primary colors in my room theme, I decided to give it a new look. I think it turned out great (other than the fact that the drawers stick!).
This desk belonged to my grandfather, and I used to play school with it when I was little. It's been up in my attic for years, so I decided to clean it up to take to my classroom. I think I'm going to use it as a VIP desk. I know the kids will get a kick out of its old school style!
I bought two of these cushions at Hobby Lobby for my classroom. Unfortunately, they didn't even last a year before my students destroyed them. Instead of throwing them away I decided to duct tape them! Four rolls of duct tape later and I think they're somewhat indestructible and kind of pretty!
FOR FUN!
MY STORE!
If you've ever visited my TpT store, you know I have an obsession with jars. I started using them for workstations ten years ago when I taught 1st grade. They're portable, easy to manage, and fun! Since I'm now teaching a 3rd/4th self-contained high ability classroom, I decided to make a jar for project based learning. My Project Jar has 40 project cards for any topic. I can't wait for my students to use it this school year!
I still have a few more Made Its for next week along with my classroom reveal! Head over to 4th Grade Frolics to check out all the other Monday Made Its!!
I love everything you did, especially the refurbished desk! The kids will love that. I also teach 3rd/4th high achieving and I think the Project Jar is an awesome idea!
ReplyDeleteThe refurbished desk is awesome. I have one in the basement. Thanks so much for the great idea!
ReplyDeleteI love that you're bringing in something antique for your classroom and letting students interact with it:) Also loving the project jar idea, and am looking forward to see how it's used.
