I promised some pictures of my classroom a while back. Here is a quick blog post that is a compilation of a few pictures from my classroom.To start, I picked up some motivational stickers that make the view out of my window a little nicer.
You can't see in this picture, but when I stay at school until sunset (which happens far too often) and the sky is clear, I have a stunning view of the sunset over the ocean.
As for bulletins, I have one long bulletin board divided into two sections.One of them isn't shown here. It is lined with newspapers and every time we read a story we write a headline and post it up.
The other one you see here has one of my favorite quotes, "A book is a gift that you open again and again." with some of the books I let them read during SSR.
For example, LISTEN reminds students to: Learn, Investigate, Stay Silent, Take Notes, re Exercise your brain and Not to talk. These are currently displayed in my class, but soon I'll send them to other teachers to share their work throughout the school.
That's a small look at my classroom! What's your look like?
Thanks for sharing, Carissa, I really like finding out how esl classrooms look all over the world! I think a classroom can be a useful tool in motivating students and helping them learn English. First of all, jealous of your view ;)
ReplyDeleteAlso I think your idea with recording reading progress with titles and books is fantastic!
I like my view too :) Though I do try to leave before it gets gorgeous!!
