Today is a day for...

* Lazy Sunday morning in bed

* Putting on a face mask

* Googling ideas for my new house

* Listening to the gentle pitter patter of the rain

* Remembering to water my house plants

* Catching up with washing

* Telling Morgan I love him

* Having a September clean up

* Cooking chicken and leek pie

* Sending off my first draft of my dissertation to my tutor

* Chit chatting with my mum

* Listening to my dad shout at the football on TV

* Hearing all about a friends first date

* Watching Downton Abbey...

* ...Enjoying a glass of baileys

* Feeling really happy!

Back to School

First week back at school.. done!

A new class, a new year group and a new classroom. That is the great thing about working in a school, you get a fresh start each September. I'm really pleased with my new classroom, its big and bright and spacious and most importantly, it's not used as a school lunch room!

Look at all the windows!

 

My cosy book corner

 

 

Badgers Class investigation table.

 

I also used this brilliant website called Pinterest to find other ideas for my classroom. You can use the website to create mood boards for all sorts of things. Here are a couple of the ideas I found and made for my classroom...

 

 

Key vocabulary for addition and subtraction

 

A game of boggle ready to play any time under my whiteboard.

 

 

Feel free to add a comment if you have any other lovely ideas you have adopted in your classrooms!
