I spent all day yesterday in my classroom. First, I moved some furniture around. I wanted to “nest” a little. And I wanted to clear some things away from the front of the room. While I was cleaning, I discovered a strange box. It was connected to the wall by wires and locked with a key:
OUTSIDE:
INSIDE:
(The display says “unit power fail… press 3 key”)
After some re-arrangement of the room, I was ready for some planning. I really got in the groove, and I feel ready for the week. I’m planning and teaching again! I’m so excited!
Here are the before and after pictures. See if you can spot the differences 🙂
BEFORE:
AFTER:
Moving things:
1. The milk is gone!
2. You have a screen now. Where did you get it?
3. The microwave is in a very handy spot.
I’d love to go on, but I’ll let others play. Love the room arrangement!
Hey, you control the bells now! School could be let out at 12:30 any time you want. 🙂
The screen was in storage at school. I was glad, because I really needed one and didn’t really want to have to buy it. I’m using it already today.
4. The globe is facing a new ocean! Not that it’s really a “new” ocean as far as I can tell.
Hehe… I turned the globe so Hawaii was showing when I put it back up there.
Your room looks GREAT Brad! So clean & straightened! Enjoy your 1st week back to teaching! I know the kids will!
The podium is moved.
The black shelving unit is moved to the front.
I think that’s a different calendar on the wall.
Your desk has more top showing.
The sun is shining in a different row.
I was wondering if anyone would spot the calendar. That’s Bilbo Baggins. He’s the January guy in my “The Hobbit” calendar.
Can a dwarf and a hobbit procreat?
I don’t know. Apparently, humans and elves can. Or at least, Numenor humans and elves.
My students are coming in for the day, and one of the boys just said: “Now it looks like a guy’s room. There is a projector screen, and the front of the room is more clear.”
Way to go….guy!
What is the red thing hanging down in the center of the room?
It’s a Christmas ornament. It’s from a devotion they did before I got here.
So is the “system fail” button really just for the bells, or…I keep picturing the guy from LOST who always had to flip a switch or turn a key or something or the whole island would go blooey – which it apparently eventually did anyway, but I digress…You hold the power, it would appear. Use it wisely……
And blessings on your official launch! (Guess last week was like a soft opening of a new restaurant – not comes the weekend rush?)
