My classroom

Ever since I started this blog, I'd been meaning to post photos of my classroom. Well, here they are:

























Above is the door to my room.





















Here is the view once you walk inside.




















My semblance of organization. Class handouts and important documents can be found on this desk.



















The other side of the desk where I conduct my business.



















My quad-core Intel i7 PC and sweet 23-inch LCD monitor, gifts to myself at the start of the new school year. Also pictured is a wide format color inkjet printer, an old HP LaserJet that still gets the job done, and, on the left corner of my desk, a netbook our assistant superintendent purchased for me to use with my students.




















The back of my classroom, featuring nine fully networked, Internet-ready PCs. The one on the far right was purchased for my classroom by the school. The others I acquired secondhand over the last couple of years.

























The Literary Treasure Trove, my classroom library.


















The wooden Thai frog that I "play" to get students' attention when we're transitioning to a new activity.

I have the same kind of frog!

(I need to take him to class--maybe Monday.)

Glad to hear Doyle. Students seem to respond well to him. He was a gift from one of my old roommates who purchased him in Thailand while visiting relatives.
