My Classroom

Each time I post the following pictures of my classroom on Instagram, I get so many questions about my mat, my border, and the alphabet! I figured I would create this space to hold all of the information in one spot for those wondering.

My beautiful rainbow mat came about because my classroom did not have a rug when I came to my current school. Y'all rugs are EXPENSIVE. I couldn't even bring myself to make a Donors Choose project for one because they just cost too much and I could use that money so many many other things! I found this mat on Amazon and was so happy with the bright colors when it showed up in the mail. You could certainly mix the colors, but I chose to  ROYGBV it. 

I ordered  sets, so it was $60. I have fit a class of 23 kindergarteners very comfortably on it. Here's the link!

I made the border by cutting circles from rainbow card stock using a large circle hole punch. Surprisingly, I use the circle hole punch more than I thought. I've used it for making caterpillars, and quick labels around the room.

You can grab the rainbow alphabet in my TpT store by clicking below.

If you look closely you can also see our classroom job below the board. We LOVE our job chart. It uses community helpers to connect classroom jobs to jobs in the real world. You can grab that in my TpT store below as well.

The letter focus chart was purchased from Lakeshore Learning a few years ago and I'm not sure that they still carry it.

Here are links to a few things on my board:

Thanks so much for reading and I hope you find something to take away this school year!
