Shiner Independent School District

Here is the silo-type main 
entrance to the school. We 
are within walking distance 
of the track, the football field, 
and the Green-Dickson Park.

Building

This building contains our 
classroom! Elementary (Pre-K - 
6th grade) students learn on the 
1st floor. We are looking forward 
to the 2008-2009 school year. It 
will be a great one!

Hallway

Hallway leading to the library, 
computer lab, and gym--Don't you 
love the purple & gold? 
GO COMANCHES!

COME ON IN! GLAD YOU ARE HERE!

Mrs. Kalich's Room! This is the 
view as you enter the classroom. 
Here's where lots of learning 
will take place! We have two 
computers. We watch United 
Streaming videos on our TV, which 
was donated by our PTO.

Environment

Butterflies and flowers create a 
nice learning environment 
throughout the classroom. We also 
enjoy listening to various types 
of music, which we play on our cd-
player as we work in 5th-grade.

"The Corner"

Student information and 
announcements (calendar, lunch 
menu, rules & procedures, and 
misc. notes) are displayed on 
the smaller bulletin board. 
Students may give presentations 
from our podium. This corner is a 
super location for silent 
reading, group work, or 
cooperative learning. Find lots 
of books and reference materials 
(Highlights Magazines, Kids 
Discover Magazines, atlases, 
encyclopedias, dictionaries,. . .)
here also!

Filing Cabinets & Divider

The antique 3-fold divider is 
covered with felt. I use posters 
with velcro for an easy and quick 
way to change visuals. The 
Vocabulary words and definitions 
for the week are displayed on the 
side of the filing cabinet. We 
use these cards to participate 
in "vocabulary concentration." 

"The Back"

This is the back view. We store 
our textbooks in cubbies. Our 
reading games, chess games, 
states games, social studies 
library, supplemental reading 
resources, white-board paddles, 
and art supplies are stored here.

THANKS for stopping by!
