So...again, now what? I know in all my classes the creativity part never seemed very hard, but now it seemed a huge daunting task that I wasn't sure I wanted to take on. However, it was too late for that. What was I going to do, let my kids stare at four blank walls!? I knew that wasn't an option. I turned to the internet. I found this awesome website heyteach.biz. I was amazed at how cheap their prices were, shipping wasn't that bad either. I think I spent maybe fifty bucks, and I got everything I wanted. I am a sucker for Dr. Seuss, and they have a ton of his stuff!
The next day, I went back up to my school with questions in mind, "Can I paint," "Does it matter what color I paint it?" I was thrilled to learn that I could. I even picked out a beautiful scene to go on the wall. (I blogged about this earlier)
Now I did not go up there every day this summer, and I am not completely finished with my classroom. However, I am proud of what I have done so far... Enjoy the pictures below. (Ignore the old computers, they are being removed. They just haven't been removed yet.)

Finally, a new blog! J/K
Aww, Layla, it's gorgeous! The painting looked awesome when I saw it (it wasn't even finished and it was amazing!). But the final result is way too cute!!!!
Thanks for sharing a good resource website. I start in my classroom tomorrow. We can't paint though, too bad.
I'm glad you're 'moved in and settled'. Post more pics when you finish!
PS: You're an awesome person and you're going to be an extraordinary teacher! :)
Aww thanks, I must admit I am nervous, but I think I am more excited than nervous.. Oh well full steam ahead no matter what!
And I LOVE that site. They have cute stuff cheap! Apparently we are remodeling next year, so my painting will be gone.. *sniff* ;)
Thanks again, you know those kids are gonna LOVE your class!
