I have a J.M. Barrie quote, a "you are the master of your fate" quote.. etc. Putting up classroom expectations where students can visibly see them would be good, too. <br /><br />I would also suggest a place for a calendar where you can write down upcoming assignments/bigger projects & students' birthdays. <br /><br />I leave enough space blank that I can temporarily tape things on the walls for gallery/walk-around lessons (great to get students moving & interacting with background info instead of you lecturing via ppt). <br />Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08536216322669493651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4909202226589555221.post-72805883164896150602013-07-25T17:23:50.311-04:002013-07-25T17:23:50.311-04:00I listed the link of where I purchased the amazing...I listed the link of where I purchased the amazingly cute binder on TPT in the above post :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02945188213969968553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4909202226589555221.post-34518026230167819802013-07-25T17:22:36.562-04:002013-07-25T17:22:36.562-04:00Kelly- I work in the Impress department as a summ...Kelly- I work in the Impress department as a summer job, so I can break it down.. hopefully they know the lingo haha<br /><br />I printed the pages duplex (top-top)<br />Then binded them using a coil bind.<br /><br />Word of advice: To lower the cost, If you have a color printer at home, print the cover and make the tabs at home using cardstock. Then just tell the person at the Impress Counter at Office Max where you want the tabs.

As the year goes on you will know what your students need to have so it's great to have room to grow.<br /><br />However, if you're anything like me, you hate bare space. Here are some ideas I'm throwing around in my head:<br />-Meet the Teach (a board introducing yourself)<br />-Sneak Peek (giving students a sneak peek into some of the things they will be learning with you)<br />-Book Recommendations (I saw on pinterest this cute "Readbox" that looked like a Redbox...you could fill it with covers of recommended informational books & novels related to your content area....Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09596766196081325612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4909202226589555221.post-19152182967537789002013-07-14T21:28:10.942-04:002013-07-14T21:28:10.942-04:00LOVE your teacher binder-it looks fabulous!
My ...LOVE your teacher binder-it looks fabulous! <br /><br />My walls are pretty bare at the beginning of the year. The only other things I have up besides what you mentioned (since I teach the little kiddos) is my number line and color posters. I prefer to wallpaper the walls with anchor charts! first grade pizzazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00780184143643509220noreply@blogger.com
