Designated Nautical Chart Spaces {Classroom 360 Tour}

I had mentioned inwards an earlier post that spell I dear making anchor charts amongst my students AND spell I notice that they reference them all the time, I don't ever know where to set them. 

Because existent estate is at a premium inwards whatever classroom in addition to spots are often already spoken for, I constitute that the charts oftentimes ended upwards getting hung wherever in that location was infinite available at the fourth dimension they were made.

This was problematic for a twain of reasons:

• It made the room feel messy in addition to unplanned {which is a big no-no}.
• The students didn't ever know where to expect to notice what they knew existed.
• There wasn't a rhyme or argue to where they were placed. It was possible to convey a scientific discipline nautical chart taped upwards on the dorsum of a door in addition to a weekly give-and-take variety hanging out nether the math workshop board.

I solved that employment for the for the coming schoolhouse year, yesteryear adding designated anchor nautical chart display areas inside my classroom.

There are several of them. The moving-picture demo below shows but i area.

Because I may non ever convey something to display in addition to didn’t desire gaping holes inwards random spots, I strived to create a infinite that looked purposeful.

• I hung textile in addition to a border.
• I sectioned off infinite for the nautical chart paper.
• And in addition to therefore I added to a greater extent than edge (in the cast of ribbons) to farther define the infinite in addition to go out it looking similar something belonged there.

Here’s the business office that I’m tooting my ain horn in addition to high-fiving myself about...

In each of the designated anchor nautical chart spaces I hot glued a pinch-style clothespin to the background fabric. That agency all I postulate to create is popular the charts correct into them. If I desire to push clit it downwardly to reference during a minor grouping or deed it closer to a grouping working on a related chore it volition hold upwards super easy,

And because you lot know I am all close the minor details that brand things extra special, I added a minor strip of scrapbook newspaper that coordinates amongst my classroom decor.

I volition demo off my other designated spots every bit nosotros proceed to go around my classroom over the side yesteryear side few weeks.
