You could decorate your classroom from the pages of a couple fairy tales. Example: build a castle out of those large boxes that ovens and freezers come in. Use it as an entrance to your reading corner. Don't forget to
include numerous fairy tale books for the kids to read. Even some of those "politically correct" fairy tales are quite amusing. On a bulletin board, Make a tower with "Rapunzel" at the top. Make a really long braid out of yellow yarn (her long golden hair hanging downn). Make a "prince" out of paper/whatever you like and each time the class does something very well, move the prince
up a couple centimetres. When he gets to the top, the class earns a reward. Have the class make a huge fire-breathing dragon out of papier maché and hang him from the ceiling. Call your classroom meetings "knights of the round-table"

Just a couple ideas. Good-luck!

Melanie
