Classroom Explosion!!!

Okay, my classroom has not literally exploded but it certainly looks like that.  In my quest to start taking things down and packing up my room for the summer it looks like something exploded in my room.  Everything has to be off the floors/book shelves because everything is taken out of my hybrid so the maintenance fairies can wax the floor.  I am trying to pack things away in an orderly fashion so I will be able to find them when I return in August. 

My school already found out we will probably only have 1 day to get our rooms ready during our pre-planning week in August due to required district professional development.  It makes it awfully hard to "mentally" wrap up and enjoy the rest of this year with my chickadees when my mind is in hyperdrive over what I need to do to get ready for next year (now).  What will my "theme" be?  Should I make my parent packets now? What copies should I run off now?

I know it will all come together in the end (I keep telling myself) :)
17 days to go!! How about you?

Thank you for all of your hard work! My students have enjoyed the Journeys Units that you have created immensely! They are 'geared up' for Second grade!
So, as you pack and prepare for your future chickadees, know that your hard work is much appreciated by us, the teachers and adored by the youngsters! You have brought their reading world to life:) Thanks again Twirlybird! You rock!
