I am hopefully linking up with Ladybug Teacher Files and her Summer Shopping Linky Party. As you hopefully know I am moving to Thailand to teach. I am super duper excited!!! I can not wait to get there and jump in to this adventure. SOOOOO I do not know a THING about my classroom. Yes, that is my loud voice but not my excited voice though! Anyway, since I do not know anything about my classroom I have been trying to create and find things that are basics to any classroom. I have been thinking about things that I could not function without!!! Is that a little dramatic?? Such things like:
I had to have a bell. Since I dont have the loudest voice, I rely on this to get students attention!
I also had to get these stickers. What shopping trip does not include stickers!
Also, I have been told of a few things that I can not get in Thailand such as calendars and bulletin board borders. Since I am a new teacher and have nothing of my own yet. I figured I would stock up on the bulletin board things. Remember however that I was not given a shipping allowance so all of these things will have to fit in my suitcase. So for me this is a lot of things. I love all of these things. Can you notice my theme???
I am trying to stay in a blue and green color scheme with bright accents... basically lots of color! and.... POLKA DOTS!!!! Yes, this is my loud and Happy face!! Can you see a difference? No? Oh. I guess I will have to work on that. But I am so so so happy with these purchase. I bought all of my items from MPM School Supplies. For now this will be all of my purchases. However, once I get to Thailand and see my classroom I am certain I will have much more to share with you. 24 days until arrival in Chiang Mai.
