middle school math classroom tour

As a middle school math teacher and an avid scrapbooker, I've had a blast setting up my classroom with a festive decor. I'm not sure my classroom has a theme...unless color counts! I focused on our school colors...red, black, and white...plus a splash of green. And I probably should mention that I simply adore polka dots! ;)

Having an organized and attractive classroom is yet another way to be proactive with classroom management. I recently completed a series of blog posts on my classroom setup. Take a quick photo tour via the slideshow below...

    I love the color scheme which I would consider your theme. It looks great! I like all the posters that your created and the supply storage containers. Thanks for joining in the fun.

      A huge thanks to you for hosting the classroom tour! I've had lots of fun gathering inspiration from the linky party.

    It's so refreshing to see a middle school classroom decorated! Most middle school teachers in my area have very sterile rooms. Seems they think once kids get out of elementary the "cuteness" has to stop. I love your room and I'm sure your students do too.

      Awww...thanks! My students love it or they think I'm crazy...but I'm pretty sure either way it's a positive. :) Thanks for hopping over to my blog!

    I agree with Kristi! Very few of our middle school teachers do more than putting up a few posters. Your room makes your students feel welcome! I truly enjoy this blog. It always motivates me to do more with my sixth graders.
    Thanks, Lisa!

    Lisa! I found you, er...your blog!! :) I happened to stumble upon your blog through something a friend of mine pinned on Pinterest. Seeing your ideas helps to get my creative juices flowing. I have been searching for other teachers sharing middle school math ideas. I can't wait to explore other blogs as well. Have an awesome new school year!!
