Getting to work on my classroom this week- LOTS go do! With the Incline exercise balls that were so generously donated to our room- we got FREE jump ropes! The gift that keeps on giving- 207 is so fortunate! I also just emailed the company and asked if they are interested in sharing any other of their products with us for classroom use. They claim to be a family- run company, so my fingers are crossed! Happy prepping! |

Last Friday I went to 5 Below and found some awesome and affordable items for my flexible classroom!
In the pics below you can see my daughter (5 years old) testing out some of our new items! The standing board is from Amazon ($24/each). This is something I've been considering for quite a while now (see previous blog post). I was a little unsure about this addition. Would it be too distracting for standing workers? Would they be falling all over the place? Once my 5 year old showed me how she could move, "work" on her color-by-number and focus at the same time, I was THRILLED! I can't wait to see how my 4th graders respond to it! For starters I bought 3, but as funds arise throughout the year, I may snag a few more!
If you've found some great deals this summer, share your leads in the comment section! |
Starting with the 2015-2016 school year, I piloted a Flexible Classroom.
I be extending this pilot into year 2 for the 2016-2017 school year. I hope you find my blog informative and maybe even a bit inspirational!
