Teaching Trends Tuesday

I cannot believe it is August already!  We head back to school on August 15th, so summer is quickly coming to an end.  My classroom is finally ready for my new kinders, so I thought I would share pictures of the beehive!


Door to my classroom


Whole group area, smartboard, theme board, and calendar board

Homeliving Center (and my new curtains)

Front of the classroom from the door.  Small group area

Reading Hive

Science Center

Word Wall


Student Computer and my desk

I loved this idea from First Grade at Last so I added them to my room this year and LOVE them!

Behavior Chart- my take on the popular clip system

My favorite addition to my classroom this year!  My new chair pockets!  They were plain yellow and I added ribbon and embroidered the bee!

I cannot wait to fill it up with my little honeybees this year! 
Hope you have a Terrific Tuesday!

  11. I'm glad there are others doing the Busy Bee theme! I love it!!! And...did you know, that scientifically, bees are not supposed to be able to fly? Their bodies are supposedly too heavy for their tiny wings, but God made it possible! I teach at a public school, but when told my kids the first part, one of my ittle buzzers said, "ButGod madeit possible!" Amen little one!!!
    Love all your ideas! Thank you for sharing!!

  13. Thank you for all the sweet comments! The reading hive is a tent that I bought a few years ago at Cosco. It had red material on it so I took it off and gathered yellow material and hot glued it on to the archers.

    The yellow chair pockets came for etsy- check them out here:

  16. In the picture Student Computer and My Desk, how did you attach the skirt to your desk? I am making one for a bookshelf in my daughter's class and haven't figured out the attachment.
