Classroom Before and After

I can't believe it's almost been a year. So much has happened. I've moved to Oklahoma with my two kids (my husband will join us when he sells the house back in Massachusetts). I have accepted a job as a third grade teacher and am excited and nervous. I've never taught 3rd grade or in another state for that matter. On July 5th we packed up an ABF trailer( that's a whole other post) with all my school stuff. 4 days later we unloaded it and put it all in the new classroom. I left a lot behind for a new teacher. I can't believe how many "essentials" I had and anyone who knows me well knows that I am constantly cleaning out my stuff. Well here are pics of the before and after of my classroom. If you notice there are no windows because my new room is also the tornado shelter for our pod.
