And stickers, which are used even on glass surfaces, will help decorate even a dull October day with butterflies, flowers and patterns. Stretches will add mischief and festivity to strict classrooms.
So what can you do with the balls?
- A chain of helium balloons is a fairly simple, but very elegant element for classroom decor. This chain looks like a rainbow, but the color scheme can be any. As a rule, such a chain is a small piece of fishing line or thin thread, onto which balloons filled with helium are tied evenly over a short distance.
This decoration can be placed above the board or stretched across the entire classroom. You can make a symbolic arch at the entrance to the classroom.
- Balloon flowers. Very easy to create and at the same time very elegant compositions. Several balls are tied together with one thread in the shape of a large flower. Such elements can be used as a separate decoration or put together as a whole composition, for example, a chain or a huge bouquet.
- Balloon figures. A very popular decoration when a large number of balls (usually small in size) is used to assemble a whole figure of a cartoon character, an animal, or a huge number or letter.
One of the easiest ways is to use single balloons with ribbons filled with helium. You can simply release them and they will fly under the ceiling of the classroom, or you can tie them to chairs or desks with ribbons. The feeling of a room filled with balloons gives an indescribable delight.
- Balloon toys. To create this kind of decor you will need special long balloons. They are inflated and then twisted and bent into intricate shapes that mimic the features of animals or flowers. In this way you can decorate the room and leave it as a souvenir for the children as gifts.
The photo of the decorated classroom shows how brightly and festively the multi-colored balloons look in the interior.
The number of ideas for decorating with balloons is huge. You can dream up a little and come up with your own version, original, bright and unique.
Furniture
The requirements for school furniture remain the same. But it’s better to carefully inspect it before the start of the first quarter:
- are all products included in the furniture set available;
- is it safe to use;
- what material the furniture is made of, is it environmentally friendly;
- study the labeling. Its indicators can be found in the regulatory document GOST 22046-2016 “Furniture for educational institutions. General technical conditions".
After checking the quality, it is necessary to measure the distance between the rows of desks: according to the new rules, it should be 50 cm instead of the previous 60 cm. In addition, if previously the allowable space separating the window and the desks varied within 70 cm (minimum - 50, maximum - 70) , then now it is already strictly limited to fifty centimeters. And the gap between the teacher’s desk and the wall, as well as the last desk and the wall behind it, can now be anything.
The best ways to decorate your classroom for 2022
A Christmas tree and toys, rain - this is a traditional classroom decoration. But what if you want to decorate the room in an unusual, original and different way from everyone else? Special crafts and ideas can diversify the interior.
Notebook of wishes
The idea of such a notepad or book is that it is placed in a place accessible to children. Each of the students can write down their wishes to other children, write their opinion about the decoration of the class, or make their own wish, which must definitely come true in 2021. Children can leave entries anonymously or sign each entry.
Next to the notebook you can leave sets of New Year-themed stickers, stickers, multi-colored pens and pencils, markers, etc. Girls especially enjoy using ballpoint pens with glitter ink, while guys will love the colors. This way everyone can contribute.
The teacher’s task is to save this notebook until the next New Year. This way children will be able to understand whether their dreams have come true or not.
Wall newspaper
A wall newspaper is a large poster drawn by children on whatman paper. Essentially, this is the same notebook of wishes, only open for everyone to see. Children with artistic inclinations can be trusted to draw wall newspapers.
Snow made of cotton wool
You can make artificial snow with your own hands from cotton wool or diaper filling. To build it, you will need cotton wool, threads and PVA glue. It is desirable that the thread be white to match the future snow.
It is necessary to roll a large number of small balls with a diameter of about 1-2 centimeters from cotton wool. A needle and thread need to be dipped in glue and cotton balls threaded onto it. While the glue is fresh, the balls should be evenly distributed along the entire length of the thread and allowed to dry for several hours. In a similar way, you can decorate not only a school board, but also doorways and windows by making several rows of thread with balls.
DIY snowflakes
A snowflake can be made from wire, plastic bottles, ice cream sticks and other available materials. To make a figurine from wire, you will need:
- flexible brass wire with a cross-section of 0.4 and 0.8 millimeters;
- pliers;
- beads and seed beads for decoration;
- glitter if desired (or nail polish with a clear base and glitter).
Cut a long piece of wire, tie one end of it into a knot or spiral. Place beads, beads and other decorations on top of the wire. After each of them, wrap two loops. Thus, you need to continue stringing the beads at a distance of 2 centimeters from each other. At the end there should be a piece of wire 4 centimeters long. You need to thread it through the loops and carefully pull the product into a rounded snowflake.
Drawings on glass made from toothpaste
Drawings based on teeth are not only bright and durable, but also practical. They are easy to wash off from glasses after the holidays; there are no streaks left after the paste. There are two ways to apply designs to glass. For the first you will need the paste itself, any paper stencil and a toothbrush. A small amount of paste should be diluted with water so that it becomes slightly liquid and easily splashes over the surface. The stencil is then attached to the glass. Having collected a little paste on the brush, you need to run it over its teeth so that splashes remain on the window. After removing the stencil, a beautiful mark will remain.
For the second method you need toothpaste, some tape and a sponge. The sponge needs to be rolled into a small roll and wrapped with tape so that you get a thin foam brush. It is convenient to draw on glass by dipping it into paste.
Snowman made of threads
A snowman made from floss and glue is a craft that even a first-grader can handle. To make it you will need white thread and PVA glue, as well as three balloons. Balloons need to be inflated in different sizes - one for the snowman's head, and the rest for the body.
The first ball should be wrapped with well-wetted thread. If this is problematic, you can wind the dry thread in a thin layer, and then apply the adhesive base with a brush. You need to make several layers, set the ball aside until completely dry. Do the same with the remaining balls.
It is easy to remove a ball from already dried threads - you just need to burst it. Then connect the cute “koloboks” together with glue so that they look like a snowman. To decorate the finished product, black beads, toothpicks, beads and even cotton wool are used.
Board
The study board should also be studied. New sanitary and epidemiological standards and hygiene rules affected:
- chalkboard lighting;
- location and diagonal of the interactive whiteboard;
- the viewing angle remained the same, however, due to recent updates, this standard applies not only to three-meter boards.
The requirements regarding the marker board remain unchanged.
Equipment
By the end of 2021, all classrooms in Russian educational institutions must be equipped with devices that disinfect the air (SP 3.1/2.4.3598-20 “Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for the design, content and organization of work of educational organizations and other social infrastructure facilities for children and youth in spread of the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19)." The rest of the SanPiN standards remained the same.
