Wordless Wednesday

My Goal has always Been to Have a Room Where You Cannot Enter It Without Learning Something!

Here are some pictures of my learning room, all clean and ready for school to begin.

We  spent several days working in the room and I was really pleased to have it tidy for at least one day.

Here is our Lab Dusty acting like he didn't just chew up, and eat I might add, the other half of the green crayon on the floor.  How can I be mad at that face?

Here are my bookshelves all organized by historical category.

Notice the Landmark Books I found at a used book store in town!!

Here are my Tapestry of Grace Books, along with some bibles, reference and classic books.  I even put the colored dot on the spine of my TOG books so I could spot Year 2.

This is a picture of the closet in our Learning Room.  I love these black shelves and I buy a new one every chance I get.  You will also see one beside my desk for printers and such.

I keep the shoe boxes up top for clippings and other things I want to put in a place for safe keeping.  For instance, I label them Human Body, Astronomy, American History, NC History, etc. and when I find a book or article that pertains, I put it in the box.

The things below are paper sorted by color and type, along with math manipulatives, supplies and other things.

Here is our computer work station, with headphones of course.

Milk crates serve as storage for small science books and readers.  I also keep some homeschooling how-to books here.

Here is the view of Trey's desk area and laptop work station.

Here is the view from the door coming into our Bonus Room.

Here is my white board, glorious white board.  I also like the white table here so I can keep my books on it as I go over the lesson on the board.

This is behind my desk.  I keep Teacher's Manuals and various other teaching materials back here.  I also keep my devotional materials here.

Beside my desk is another black shelving unit.  I like it because I can keep my Laser and All-In-One Printer here and get to them easily.  This gives me lots of storage.

This is the view from my desk.  The Eagle's View!!

And yet another view.

And, you will usually see my coffee pot on this table.  I also keep a fan underneath and all 36 weeks of my TOG printouts are in the rubbermaid container underneath!!

Washington, DC - Here we come.

We are leaving in the morning on a 4-H trip to the capital.  I am really looking forward to climbing on the bus and taking a nap, followed by lots of reading.  I'm really feeling the stress of our school year beginning on August 18th.  Although I was doing really good early in the summer in terms of planning, now I seem to be interrupted every few minutes.

All this to say, I'm packing lots of stuff to read and review.  I think the bus trip is going to just be awesome and, multi-tasker that I am, I hope to get lots of reading done too!
