Tour of my art room

I love my art room. Large windows, high ceilings, plenty of shelves, it is a peaceful place. It is my home away from home. I took these photos during my first week back, so as I make changes I will

try to take more photos. The calm before the the crazy energy of creation enters!

The drying rack is tucked into the corner. The wooden rack is used for
miscellaneous storage, peeking out behind the wood rack you can see the
study carol that I use to organize class portfolios by day of the week.

The work station. The custodial staff put my desk near the computer,
I decided I liked it that way. The computer has to be where it is, which is a
shame because it is in front of the only mirror, a cool enhancement to the art room. 

Shelves shelves shelves! I love all of the shelf space. 

Most of our daily supplies are stored on these shelves. The helper table
can easily reach and distribute. 

Classroom management. The Give me 5 is for K and Pre-k, so
that is not always on the board. 

Amazing Artists Classroom management system. Each class has
a labeled circle. Each amazing artist gets to sign the circle, add reward
poms to the class jar, earns a PBIS gold ticket, and helps to line up
the class for dismissal. Works like a dream!!

 Amazing Artists signs.
