30 Beach-Themed Classroom Finds

Although it seems way too soon, the back-to-school season is already here. Between the school supplies at the front of the grocery store and the emails from your principal, you can hardly avoid it.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say you’re probably neck-deep in the process of getting your room set up.

Maybe, you’re all set. You’ve been in the same room, at the same grade level, with the same decor theme for a while. That’s awesome!

Or maybe, your room is already done. Yipee, you’ve got some extra time to spend at the pool.

Or maybe, you’re trying to create the best beach-themed classroom you can – cutting out laminated decor while binging on your favorite TV series, browsing online for ideas, and dreaming of the salty, sandy shore.

In any case, I hope that these beach theme back-to-school finds give you some inspiration.

If you’re dreaming of a beach theme, you’ll want decor that features water, sand, and coastal creatures. (This post contains affiliate links.)

So, I’m going to share some of my favorite finds:
