Modern Calm Colors Classroom Decor

My very first year of teaching, I knew I wanted a calm and peaceful classroom. I filled it with shades of blue- bins, posters, labels, but nothing really matched. 😅 The room felt a little all over the place, and I remember wishing there was an easier way to make it look cohesive without spending hours searching for the “right” shades.

Fast forward to today, and that experience is actually what inspired me to create the Modern Calm Colors classroom decor theme. I wanted to help other teachers who also love a soft, calming aesthetic- but want everything to coordinate and feel pulled together.

In this post, I’m sharing a peek inside the bundle, along with photos of how different pieces can come together to create a classroom that feels organized, calming, and uniquely yours. 💛 Whether you’re decorating for the first time or giving your space a refresh, I hope this gives you a few ideas to run with! 😍

You might be thinking, “Is that everything included?”

Nope — not even close! 😄

This Modern Calm Colors MEGA bundle has more than 1,700 pages across 60+ resources. It’s packed with everything from math and ELA posters to labels, organizational items, classroom management tools, and more.

Basically… everything I wish I had my first year of teaching!

It can be so helpful to see how other teachers have brought a decor theme to life in their own classrooms! Here are a few ways teachers have used the Modern Calm Colors theme to create beautiful, calming spaces.

A Closer Look at the Modern Calm Colors Classroom Theme

Organizational Cart Labels

These are a few of my favorite organizational tools- my 10 drawer cart and Essex rolling cart! I created these labels to organize each of the drawers and quickly find what I need!

I found this essex rolling cart at Michaels and love using it to store paper and other larger miscellaneous items!

Classroom Jobs

In the classroom jobs display, you can edit the jobs and easily swap them out every week (or few weeks) with velcro dots or magnets! This calm colors display comes with 64 ready-to-print job cards, 32 cards with a fun font, and 32 primary cards with pictures, + editable cards to customize! 

Multicultural Hand Signal Posters

These are a game-changer for classroom management! Do you want to implement hand signals in your classroom?

Placing these posters at the front of the classroom makes it easy for students to reference often throughout the day!

Daily Schedule Cards 

I love to use schedule cards to seamlessly organize my day as students will be able to see what’s coming next! I’ve included a fun font and primary font, and cards with and without pictures + editable versions of each card! In addition, there are analog and digital clocks + editable clocks for you to use!

Another version of the schedule cards is included with solid colored backgrounds.

This style comes with both a primary version with pictures included, or an upper elementary version with only the names shown.

Door Display

Teacher Toolbox Labels

I purchased this teacher toolbox from Amazon and spray-painted it blue! (Also, I’ve used this blue toolbox for every decor theme and feel like it goes well with EACH theme 🙂 )

Alphabet Poster Options

This bundle includes so many different ways to display the alphabet for your young learners! Here are the different designs that are included:

• Primary Font with A-Z animal Pictures

This teacher has taken the primary posters & placed them on top of her whiteboard in her classroom.

Another primary option includes images for each word on each alphabet poster.

There are also cursive alphabet posters with ASL signs, or just the cursive alphabet.

Binder Covers and Spines

If you want to organize your sub plans, centers, lesson plans, and more- you can do so with the editable binder covers and spines that I’ve included in the bundle! The binder spines fit 1 inch, 1.5 inch, 2 inch, and 3 inch binders.

Text-Editable Items

Also, I decided to make everything in the modern calm colors bundle text-editable! I know that there are often things we as teachers need to customize to suit our students or classroom, so I wanted to make everything text- editable!

What’s even more awesome is that this makes the bundle super bilingual friendly – so if you want to translate it into Spanish or French (or any other language, really!), you totally can!

To edit, you will need Powerpoint installed on your computer. Simply type in the text boxes provided!
