History as in finished, done, over with. I put a few finishing touches on my room today. All should be ready for the Open House tomorrow. I don't decorate with all the fru-fru frills my female counterparts like to put up. My room looks like a guy teacher's room. Most of my day was spent working on my schedule and writing lesson plans for the first week of school next week. Because our electives - or as we call them, specials - are at different times each day and some or once a week, some twice, and one is 5 times a week, having a consistent order of subjects can be challenging. I think I achieved it, though. I do have the first 2 days of next week planned. I hope to get the rest done before Open House at 3pm. Open House will go from 3-6 pm. The photo is of my Start of School bulletin board this year. I went with a stars, planets, and comet theme in honor of the 50th Anniversary of the Moon Landing. I hope this Wednesday was good for all of you.

I like your bulletin board. I wonder if I would have gone to more school if I'd had a teacher like you?

Perhaps you would have. One of my students from last year insisted his mom let him come into the school to see me this morning when she stopped to pay her tuition because he saw my truck and knew I was there. It's that kind of thing that lets me know I'm making a difference.

It looks like a guy teacher's bulletin board to me. I think I would have added a rocket and a moon though.

@snowy22315 Miss V would get upset if I changed it now. She spent lots of time getting everything arranged to be balanced.

I was going to put a rocket and moon up there but changed my mind at the last minute.

You did a good job with your bulletin board. I had a pretty common Wednesday.

Thank you. The credit really goes to my friend. She did most of the work. She took my basic idea and made it look awesome.

Our librarian helps me with mine or I might never get them done. Making a comet tail out of the stars was her idea.

I can't take much of the credit. I thought of the theme, but my friend who is our librarian put up the board and thought up the design. She is much more crafty and clever than I.

Nice bulletin board! Hope Open House goes well. I loved meeting the parents. Will the students be there, too?

That is a really cool bulletin board. That being said, I'm glad I don't have to deal with bulletin boards.

I also have two smaller boards in my classroom. I set them up when I moved into the room 2 years ago and simply cover them over the summer.
