Progress! Nearing the home stretch...

August 2, 2016

Summer is winding down and the room is taking shape. The bulletin boards, whiteboard and chalkboard have been removed.  This was no easy task as the walls were crumbling beneath the boards and needed to be repaired.  The SMARTboard was taken down and was replaced with a mounted projector onto a new whiteboard. Underneath the bulletin boards and whiteboard was a mess and repairs had to be made. They even had to go down to the brick to repair the wall!


Kara and I have been checking in periodically and the walls have now been painted. The dry erase paint has been added and the walls are fully interactive too!  We’re waiting on furniture to make the room complete. In the meantime, we’ve been busy planning how to adapt our curriculum to the mobile environment.  That’s right. We know we’ll need to teach differently, and we’re busy planning!  We've also picked up some furniture that needed to be built, so we've pulled out the tools and started assembling. The excitement is mounting!
No more bulletin boards!
Big repair needed to this wall!

No more chalkboard!
Our painter is awesome!
Ms. Dabe hard at work building shelves!


Our new whiteboard! And the shelves built by Ms. Dabe!
