Hello All! I wanted to discuss the fun of having a theme in your classroom.  I teach kindergarten currently, but I have also taught Third grade and K-2 LLD.  Each year I have created a NEW theme in my classroom.  YES NEW! My students always love coming into a themed classroom.  It turns a boring classroom into an interesting place to learn and play!  Having a theme in the classroom makes the room more cohesive and exciting!  It also keeps things new and interesting for me! I love making new things and getting excited about what items I can find to go with my theme! I have used several different themes over the past few years including: Rainforest Jungle Beach Circus Western and this year I will be doing a SPACE THEME! I have some previous posts on my rainforest, jungle, and beach themed classrooms. This year in my SPACE classroom I will be using some items I made.   Get my SPACE theme calendar and label pack HERE I will be making each student into an astro
