My mother tells me, often, that I'm constantly rearranging. I have to agree with her. I always feel like things can be improved, even if they seem to work. Today, the classroom is getting a new arrangement.
Of course, school has been going well. We've now completed six weeks and we are starting our first, one week, break. I suppose this would be the week to change the classroom; I mean we won't really be using it. Well, they won't (I still have a bit of work to do, not including the rearranging).
Are you curious yet, as to what is changing? Well. :) The girls have new desks! Yeah, we broke down and now each one has a desk. The desk are put together, but not set-up with their stuff yet. When they get it done tomorrow, I'll post pictures. John and I had tossed around the idea of each of them having their own desk for awhile now. But tonight we went in to buy them a lamp, for the school table, and came out with two red desks! LOL The girls have been asking for some color in the classroom and now they'll have some.
I think it will work great for them, but honestly I'm a little curious as to how this will work for me. You see this year, I decided to put my laptop on my desk, instead of the end of the classroom table. This year I used the end of the classroom table for my teacher guides as they were working. It is also where I graded their papers, since my laptop is on my desk. I was thinking of putting my laptop on the "keyboard" pullout of my desk, but I don't think it is wide enough. So, this week I'll be trying to figure out how to make what works for them, work for me.
