thanks so much for posting this! i'm still a student teacher, so this is great inspiration for me. i love that you include a purple card on your behavior chart for extra good behavior. and your zoo theme is so fun!

i'd love to see pics of other teachers' classrooms too!

Thank you! I am so glad I could give a little inspiration.  Honestly, teaching is the best job ever.  If your heart is in it, you will love it the whole time!  That is a great idea to show some other teacher's classroom! I will get snapping pictures:)
