This is our classroom display for the interactive Pilgrim simulation we worked on with the other 3rd grade class at my school. We combined classes and split up into 5 colonies. Each group had to work their way across the Atlantic Ocean, write a Compact, elect leaders, build houses, plant crops, make peace with the Indians, trade with the Indians, and pay back the merchants in England with furs. The kids loved it and learned so much!
Our "I am thankful for...." display:
Our reading corner became fall-like with fall decorations and my students colored turkeys.
And our door...not the prettiest ever, but the kids loved making their own paper leaves to display.
And on a different note I thought I would share a few other favorite wall displays I have up right now.
A couple weeks ago each student read a biography and then gave an oral presentation on their person. They even dressed up like the person they read about. I took a picture of each of them and displayed them up on the wall:
Below is perhaps my favorite wall display so far, only for the fact that it turned out exactly as I saw it in my head. And that, friends, is no small thing when you are not very artistic and envision things turning out so nicely and artistically done only to be constantly shown that you are not as artistic in reality as you are in your brain...haha....with all that said, this is a picture of how I displayed our pen pal letters in our classroom:
By the end of the week I should have some pictures of Christmas/Winter decorations in my classroom!
Oh and by the way....Our seeds did grow! They grew really well actually! Here is a picture:
Love your classroom. Its so cheerful!
