After four and half years of being a year one teacher I have morphed into a Year Three teacher. The desks are bigger, the children are a little taller and the teaching content becomes more in-depth. I had to move classrooms again and have managed to score a double teaching space all to myself.
Well if I can't be in Africa (yet) I may as well have an African themed classroom. (are you surprised?!) I was pretty excited when I realised I could do this. I had a laminated zebra, giraffe and monkey already thanks to a friend called Lisa who gave me all her resources when she quit teaching to have her babies. Plus I used publisher to make a whole lot of banners. It's seriously my new favourite computer program.
I have my cute animal mobile from Uganda up (I need to add a photo of this) and joy of joys my capalanas! I figured you can only wear so many right? So I kept my favourite to wear and pinned the rest to my notice boards.
Plus as a bonus I had to include the note I found on my noticeboard on Thursday afternoon. My kids are so cute!

Great teaching space Claire - I'm sure you can make an African Jungle or Savanna Grassland out of all that space.
