Math Classroom Library

I'm back! It was a crazy, hectic end of the year with TWO moves-one over spring break and one at the end of the year.  That's three moves in two years and I can't wait to settle into my new classroom across town! Whew! Now that I have been able to think and breathe a little I have started planning some of the changes I want to make for the upcoming year.  I am teaming with the BEST PARTNER EVER~she teaches ELA and I teach Math, Science and Social Studies. This year the students are switching classrooms (last year teachers switched) which means I can have a whole library for Math, Science and Social Studies.  YAY! The ELA teacher in me is so excited to set the library up! To help organize the books I made these labels (I made them for my entire library before we started teaming). Now I can actually separate my Math books into skill baskets :))))) I can't remember where I got this idea from but I thought I would share it because it is so helpful with first graders! Each skill basket will have an index card tag with the label, that the students will decorate to help them locate where books belong in the library!  Here are the pictures of the labels I have made so far.

 

 












Hope you find this helpful! I will post pictures of the matching tags once the firsties make them in September!
