Our Homeschool Room

Okay, Okay….we have lived in our new house for almost a year now.  I promised school room pictures after the first of the year, and here they are!!

I’ve been busy working on getting it organized and presentable, and well…it’s almost there.  I figured though that it’s never going to be perfect, because, let’s face it, we use it every day! 

It’s a good size room, and once we have older kids and not so much school ‘stuff’ (will this ever happen?) it will be turned into a bedroom for the boys.  (right now they are squeezed into a really small room, all 3 of them!). 

In the cabinets I have art supplies and manipulatives.  The plastic drawers are more manipulatives, sensory materials, etc.  Behind the ABC chart is all my crafting stuff, and I also store our past units back there on shelves and in bins.  The workboxes are the colorful drawers.  The bookshelves have curriculum items, consumables, materials, books, etc…  (I have more bookshelves and games outside of the school room).  Next to the ABC chart is our science shelf…it’s got rocks, shells, bones, etc… fun stuff! 

There use to be posters on the white cabinets, but the ticky tack didn’t hold up.  I have to rehang them. 

I’m slimming down some of our materials.  But, it’s so hard to let go of things…I mean I do have 2 more that are coming up through the younger grades. 

It may be a bit messy and overcrowded, but I love our space….and I love it even more that I can shut the door!  HA!
