Wonder Wall or Parking Lot

Parking Lot. This is not new in our 21st Century Classroom setting. We have a parking lot for the pupils to post questions, reflect their feelings and state their opinion. But as teacher how do you encourage the children to write out their feeling? We use this WONDER WALL to guide teachers and pupils to do reflection before, while or after every lesson. It is a set of questions that guide the children to process their thinking.

 

PRINT this and attach it to your PARKING LOT.

Outer Space Printables

Here are a few printable I did for my Outer Space Classroom. All the information are taken from Wikipedia: Solar System … I add a blank printable too in case you wish to add other related info. Enjoy

Rainbow Classroom Theme

Every end of the year I will squeeze out as many ideas as possible to decorate my class and that is the best that I like about being a class teacher. I get a lot ideas from Pinterest…(I love pinning so much)….And these year my classroom theme is rainbow…

Here are a few photos that I managed to snap during the project. However, it is not done yet, so there are many more things to do. I will update this post once the project is completed.

I’ve been hunting the rainbow items from the bookstore to the wedding shops. From online to the sewing store…searching here and there and check out what I managed to collect. Nice right?

Project 1: Rainbow Label

(I bought the white vase, green moss, pebbles and join them together with sponge and white glue. Cheap and easy project to hold the label for our reading corner, lunch box corner and discussion corner)

Project 2: Rainbow Name Display

(I use paper plate which is cut into cloud shape, colour the line with rainbow tone, and attach the ribbons. So nice to display pupils’ name.)

Project 3: Rainbow Tutu Window Dressing

( This is a simple no sew window dressing. I use colourful net, tie to a string and voila…*Very refreshing right?*)

Project 4: Rainbow Spiral

(This is the left over from the cloud name label. I feel reluctant to throw them away so I improvised them and it becomes a very nice Rainbow Spiral…I attach this on the front door to welcome the pupils.)

Project 5: Rainbow Creative Board

(I use colourful rainbow papers, label and laminate them for long-term use. Pupil’s Creative Board is used to display pupils work. Simple and nice)

Project 6: Rainbow Information Board

(Bought 7 pieces of 1 meter rainbow plain jersey fabric, staple to the board and label by subjects. The materials are all related to each subject learn by the pupils.)

Project 7: Rainbow Pennants

(Made these wonderful patterns and print them on colourful paper. I do laminate them to make them durable and long lasting.)

Project 8: Rainbow Cupcakes & Rainbow Curtain

(Print these cupcakes outline onto A4 size papers, colour, cut and then laminate them. The crayon makes the cupcakes really popup… I love the wording too. And do you notice my rainbow curtain….nice right…)
