VBS 2012!

This year for VBS, my church is using Lifeway's Amazing Wonders Aviation curriculum and I will be teaching the 3rd-4th grade class. VBS for me is June 18th-22nd, so I'm almost ready to decorate my room and teach the week away! I can't wait to blog about my ideas, decorations, and experiences throughout the week! A few of my ideas are inspired by things I saw on Pinterest, and others are just from past experience that I've had teaching VBS.

Before I start posting about specific decorations, I want to explain the "vision" that I have for my room. When it comes to decorating my room, I always want an awesome room, and it never goes the way I plan. This year, that is not going to happen. I hope. Anyways... I want to take the six landmarks represented in the theme and model a section of my room after each of them. That means that I will have a Paricutin Volcano, the Matterhorn, the Great Barrier Reef, Victoria Falls, the Grand Canyon, and the Northern Lights in my room when I'm finished. It sounds like a lot, but I'm hoping it won't be so bad since each section can only be so big-- I think it would be a lot more complicated to make the entire room one thing.

I will blog about specific decorations that I have made, and then I will do a blog with pictures of my room  after I decorate. I also plan on blogging about the activities I altered, and some of the things I plan on doing so that my class will run as smoothly as possible!

I am looking forward to awesome week of VBS!
