After hours spent pintresting I finally decided to try out some ideas. I wanted a poster that I found at Home Sense that said "PLAYROOM RULES".. things like too much TV is bad, too much reading is good, etc. etc., - - after himming and haa-ing I decided against it and otped to make my own. Now I'm no Martha Stewart and am just beginning but I must say I am quite proud!
All I did was buy a canvass from the dollarstore ($2), then some spray paint and foam sticker letters. I spraypainted the whole thing silver, then after trying (and failing) with stencils I decided to use foam stickers. I stuck them on then contemplated leaving just the stickers on for colour... but in the end decided to spray paint the whole thing. I might add a smiley face or heart in there somehow.. the possibilities are endless! This is just stage one I'm letting it dry overnight.
Item number two today was my behaviour chart. I've decided as a classroom management tool I will use the ocean animal ranking system. Yes I made that up, but again got the idea from many other brilliant teachers on Pinterest! Now I just need to spray paint the clothes pins and write each childs name on them! :)
Special thanks to my brother for modeling these crafts for me (haha as if he had a choice) and EXTRA SPECIAL THANKS to my brothers amazingly talented girlfriend Caitlyn for helping me all day with art projects, followed by painting my nails for a wedding this weekend :) Love you both!
Happy teaching :)
Miss C
