Halfway Over

I'm trying not to think about how my summer vacation is halfway over already (I know, I know, I'm just a spoiled teacher.... bear with me!). There's a lot of fun to be had in the meantime - we'll be going on a road trip to visit my sister and her hubby in NJ and my brother in Maine.

I've been trying to get my classroom all set up and ready to go so I don't have to worry about it while I'm away. For those of you that don't know, A LOT goes into setting up your room before the beginning of the year. Would you like to take a peek at my progress?




As you can see, my classroom theme is frogs this year! Those frogs on the door display are going to have my students' names on them.

Having a cute classroom is part of what motivates me to to go back to school. As it is, my heart sinks when I see "back to school" signs at the stores already!!!

I'm linking up with Casey today:

    Your room is cute! So much goes into getting classrooms ready. My mom works at an elementary school, and I used to help her and the teachers the few weeks before school started back up. Enjoy your time off!

    I know it does go fast! We go back mid August so it'll be here before I know it. Enjoying the time off right now though...
