Chevron freebies

With my chevron projects I plan for my classroom I've been making a few updates to my reading workshop. I use the Really Good Stuff baskets for the kids to house their independent reading materials for each week.

Since mine currently have polka dotted ones I made some new ones in Chevron



Sorry the numbers aren't in order. I thought about making the borders different colors to match the baskets but "changed my mind".

I let the kids have reading spots around the room. Each week it rotates by using a Target pocket chart and moving the book nook numbers beside each partner group. I made these labels to place around the room to numerate the book nooks.







I like being able to make these from home this summer while relaxing!

Book/Dots/Spots/Library/confusions

Woe to me! I'm as confused as can be.
My door to my room--is not in bloom.
It is just a door with no name
My kids come next week--what a shame!

It is not perfect. It is just plain.
Please help me--I need a name!




I have only one week before Open House now that my poetry selection is over. I have gone with a polka dotted theme in my borders, my crate seats, my paper lanterns. But I need to get my door to the classroom completed. But I am. totally. brain. dead.  No inspirations! No thoughts. AND--you know how when you get stumped on something it keeps you from working on what REALLY needs to be completed like beginning of the year folders, handouts, placement of items in the room. WELL--that is where I am right now. SO
if you have any thoughts for a catchy title and door decoration--I am welcoming all thoughts.

I had thought of the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom looks whose spotted in our room. But I really want it to be more of a "first grade" entrance. I pinned this door and really really like it...though...







Thanks for all help!
