I have recently taken the time to redecorate my classroom. With reduced hours and no students because of the Coronavirus, I have had plenty of time to do some fun projects to revamp my room. One of my favorite projects is my puzzle board. I am always on the look out for ways to help with student behavior. Each day that my class behaves (for the most part), they can earn a puzzle piece. I bought a few 24 piece puzzles and traced them out on brown paper. I used scrap booking pages to decorate the background. I started to use this about a week before we had to close our school's doors. The kids were really excited to see what the picture would turn out to be. I can't wait to use it when we reopen.
I have two sets of these shelves in my room and I really didn't like how they looked before. The brackets were a cold looking metal and the shelves were plain. A co-worker suggested sprucing them up a bit. I painted the trim around the shelves this pretty light blue color and I painted the brackets in a gold tone. It really adds a touch of warmth to my room.
This mirror was a a dark brown wood. It was slightly broken and most likely would have ended up in the trash. I rescued it and added the same paint used on my shelves. I added these cute foam dogs to it since my classroom is decorated in a dog theme.
I have really enjoyed having the time to redecorate my classroom but I can't wait to have students in my room again.
