Here are the “after” pictures.  This is what I was able to get done in 1 day.

This is my Library Work Station.  I’ve made the space a little bigger this year and have taken out the round table that used to be in here.  Tomorrow, on my IKEA run, I’m going to pick up a rug and some little tables and chairs for this space.

Another look (from the other side of the library)

A view of the room from inside the library!

A view looking down the long wall, towards our large group area and the science center!

Looking towards some student tables, the mailboxes, my storage closet, office, and sink.

The shelf right inside my door.  The kids put their red folders (take home folders) in the yellow bucket each morning and library books in the tub next to that.  Parent notes go in the green folder.  We store extra supplies on the bottom shelf and office supply type things on the top shelf (white tub).

Our large group area.

Listening Station

My calendar area (although, I completely took it down and rearranged it today, so when I go in next week, I’ll have to get a new picture).

The Science Cart with all most half of my science stuff on it! 🙂

New science area.  I’ve gotten rid of the big table in favor of a little one I’m buying at IKEA tomorrow.

The sand table’s new home in front of the house.  I’m going to try and get it open everyday.  Guess I need to get more sand!

I’ll have more pictures next week!
