Circle Time Area- UPDATE

 Circle time area- update

We got a SmartBoard, so we had to move around our room a bit.

The ABC line was from Target. 

Birthday Signs- I add them as we get to them :)

Some how the cube shelves fit perfectly between the wall and the SmartBoard!

To encourage my students to do centers, 

I made those "Frog Challenge" cards.

I fill in the blank with the title of the center.

When the kids finish/ work on that center,

I write their names on the cards with dry erase markers.

My students really like doing calendar.

I started the linear calendar this year, and they love it even more!

Check out more here to find the cards I use.

On the walls:

alphabet chart- from Dollar Tree

above the letters, I have name cards for everyone in my room, teachers included. I got them for free from HERE. I print a whole page per child, some are in uppercase and some are capital letters to begin, and the rest lowercase for the second semester.  I have two alphabets (my room is split into two parts lol) so I hang them up twice.  One full set for our journals. One for our writing center. One is for our birthday board, sort of lol They move their name when they turn 5 :)
