In every other classroom I have had, I've come into a room that already was furnished and organized the way this previous teacher had left it. This year is different--since we are in the new building, my classroom is a blank slate. I get to choose the furniture (and there is A LOT to choose from) and I get to choose how to organize it, rather than trying to figure out the thought process of someone else.
It's not finished yet--it is a work in progress (actually, the whole school is a work in progress--but you try moving an entire school in a place where a majority of the work force leave the country for the summer!). However, here is a glimpse of my new classroom:
