Schooling by Heart: Classroom Themes

So, themes . . . we have a love/hate relationship. Since being a teacher (8 years), I have done 3 classroom themes (including this year). I have done a Jungle, Robot, and now a Bug theme. At times I love them, but at times I hate them!

In the states, I try to flee from the trendy. Or, I try to buy the trendy when it is just coming out so it is not so popular yet! This year, I went school supply shopping before moving to Africa.

While out, I didn't really see anything that I loved except a couple of small pacts of bugs. (See below) And a few additions to the robot materials which I bought last year.

So, when I got to Africa I was planning on just doing the robot theme again, but the cuteness of the bug theme won me over. I had to make a ton of stuff for the theme, but I think it came out. I designed an alphabet, name tags, tags, birthday jars, bug names, a job chart, a behavior chart, and more! What do you think about how it came out??
