Camping Theme Classroom

Well I'll try n give you a few ideas & a picture of what my camping classroom looks like!!It's been a real hit! Right by my door I covered the wall with night sky bulletin paper. I found a double sand colored flat sheet at Wal-mart for a great price! So yes!that went on the floor for sand. Set up a 2 person junior tent, set some camp stools in there & covered some pillows with plaid fabric threw those in to complete my reading corner! Thanks to my dad & lil bro we have a campfire infront of the tent! We used a small swirl cage fan & a red bulb covered that with a lampshade that we had covered with small logs teepee style. Then I cut "flames" from red foil tissue paper & yellow cellephane & glued those out the top of the lampshade. I'm quite pleased how it all turned out! I've stuck some little yellow craft birds from dollarama around my class. One wall is my good work wall. Title is s'more good work with a clothes line to hang work on. I glued graham crackers, mini aero bars & laquered marshmallows to clothes pins for on there. Composition wall is "Campfire Stories" with a picture of a fire. My table has a red & white table cloth with a lantern sitting on it. For cleaning jobs I titled it "Camp Cleaners" and made little sleeping bags out of that quilted fabric, painted the job names on and then they clored pictures of children that I mac tact and stuck in the sleeping bags! Anyway thats some of the ideas of the fun I had creating this place I spend so much time at with my bunch!
