    1. Those are a Carson Dellosa set. I wouldnt suggest putting them
      Up with Velcro though. Magnets would be better I believe. I did make my own. The pictures on the tree were purchased from TPT. Email me and I can send you a link.

  26. Absolutely adore your room!!! So organized, colorful, and inviting!!! I am so doing the crate idea! I teach 4th graders but we are self contained...the crates will be nice for some extra storage. How'd they hold up for you? One student per crate or two???

    Your room is so cute and I am feeling inspired. We have a new building, new room and I wanted to do an owl theme, but I was stumped. Thanks for the inspiration, you did such a great job. I was wondering about the crates you use for cubbies, did I read correctly.... do you put them in the hallway? Just wondering how that worked out for you. Did the kids knock them down since they were stacked like that? Thanks again! :)

    1. I don't know the exact dimensions. They are the crates from Walmart that are $3 each. Target now sells them as well!!

  33. I am doing the crate cubbies this year. I read how you attached them to the board and wall. However, How did you attach them stacking on each other. Have you had problems with regular sized bookbags fitting?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies

    1. I didn't personally attach them to the wall myself. I will have to look to see how they are stacked. The other teacher's son-in-law did them for us. I have had NO problems unless its a rolling book bag. Which those aren't allowed anymore!!

  34. Wow, your pictures of your room are wonderful and you have inspired me to get working! I especially liked your clip chart and how the students can clip up. Where did you find your chart or did you make it? Would you be willing to share it? My email address is agindoff@yahoo.com

    Thanks in advance!

  35. Great Room!!! I'm currently setting up my first pre-k room. (My first room every.) Can you explain the birthday bags? Maybe I missed it. Also, do you have the print outs for the behavior chart saved - I would love to have that if you are willing to share! Thank you. :)
