Photos from the beginning of Term 3 2013:
 |
Job list - pupil pictures are rotated weekly |
 |
Year Sixes have special school-wide jobs |
 |
My desk: by the front door, laptop runs the IWB |
 |
View along the windows |
 |
View along the IWB/whiteboard wall |
 |
View from front door, across classroom to cloakbay door - we have a mixture of options for seating -
pupils select a numbered counter when enter the room on Monday morning (corresponds to a workspace/seat/table)
and that is their 'base' space for the week. They are allowed to move to other spots during the day eg when working with a partner or on an ipad, or if I want a guided group to be in a certain place. |
 |
Computer cupboard area |
 |
Marking shelf - pupils place books or completed work here for me to look at |
 |
Basket for the DIY (do-it-yourself) learning folders and resources; shelf for flag, stickers box, guided group resources. |
 |
Games cupboard (due for a paint-job!) |
 |
Literacy/spelling resources, atlases and large reference books. |
 |
Library corner |
 |
Inquiry display table, reporting books in boxes underneath |
 |
Inquiry wall - has question, key understandings, a relevant quote or two;
work or other material still to be added as inquiry progresses. |
 |
Personal learning goals display - wearing a motorbike helmet in honour of Burt Munro |
 |
Inside the computer cupboard |
 |
Guidelines on doors of computer cupboard |
 |
This lets me know who to respond to on their blog |
 |
School agreement for pupils using computers |
 |
A work in progress - poem of the week, current events |
 |
Suggestions board for what to blog about and a playtime/lunchtime computer roster |
 |
Bulldog clips attached to wall for displaying class-made publishing books. |
 |
Displaying the expectations of learning for writing. |
 |
Motivation for the Year Sixes towards the end of year prize-giving. |
 |
Wall shelves - homework books are kept each day in the empty space; modelling books to the right,
Bible in Schools books below, refill pads and handwriting cards,
maths text books at bottom - all within easy reach. |
 |
Maths equipment |
 |
As we have no desks we store our books for each subject in these bins. |
 |
The chairs get stacked at the end of the day. |
 |
We have some stools as an option. |
 |
Another version of stools. |
 |
Handwriting levels |
 |
Noise signal lights |
 |
Reward system - when board is full the dodecahedron dice (to 12) is rolled
and the winner chooses from the prize-box. |
 |
And for inappropriate behaviour...(steps two plus are hardly ever referred to thankfully!) |
 |
Guided groups on display |
 |
Low table, cushions are a seating option - due for paintjob too! |
 |
As we have no storage desks the pencil cases are kept in these trays;
everyone shares the rulers and glue-sticks. |
 |
The centre of the maths shelves/homework book shelves -
spelling and basic facts resources, literacy CDs, music CDs etc. |
 |
My personal collection of teaching resources, kept on shelves in the art bay. |
 |
More of my resources, on a higher shelf on other side of artbay. |
 |
More of my resources - the bits and pieces stuff! |
 |
Pupils can use these art supplies. |
 |
My everyday trolley - planning and resources for the week are easy to access. |
 |
Reward system - using obsolete library cards, points given for tidy handwriting as well as three points per day
as "work pay" for being at school. Pupils can 'buy' from the shopping list. |
 |
My marking system for book work. |
 |
I use groups of three for cooperative tasks. Change each term. |
