I had never done a theme before in my classroom so I was excited to try one this year. I have several students who love ocean life (one boy in particular is OBSESSED with squids! haha) so I decided to make an under the sea classroom!
First I tackled my student work display board, which I decided to name Star Students and decorate with starfish. I will print out pictures of the kids and glue them to the clothes pins. I love having the kids work all over my room!
My own creative idea was to make seaweed hanging from the ceiling. I stapled DJ inkers sea life to the sea weed to make it more "ocean-y"
I added more DJ inkers sea life to our door.
I added some ocean fun to our calendar wall. I used an ocean theme from Littlest Learners.
Our classroom library looks very beachy, especially with the chicka chicka boom boom tree. :) I love the crab pillow from Target's dollar spot. The cute beach mats from Target didn't last long (what did I expect since they were only a dollar). We got our new rug from DonorsChoose so we don't need the mats anyway! :)

My favorite part of the room has to be the bulletin board we made! I got the idea for the craft on pinterest! We basically used our hand prints to make sea animals. First we painted our hands and placed a hand print on paper. I let them choose between a fish or a jellyfish (they used two hands for that):
