The Classroom!

Can you envision a classroom lacking color? An essential part of a child’s growth is through life because they are learning and developing through different challenges, and most of their knowledge takes place inside of a classroom. Those prime years are extremely important to the development of each child, and without the creative knowledge openings, children will lack the abilities they need to learn and grow within. A classroom actually plays a big role in educating imagination and confidence. I feel that a classroom should be very colorful and well organized with many eye- catching items because it can make somewhat of an emotional or physical connection with the children when they walk in the classroom. Your classroom environment affects how you feel about yourself and your career.  If your classroom has no color to the eye the students may feel as they are walking into something that is always going to be boring. When you design a bulletin or rewards chart board to display different ways of how you are trying to introduce all your methods to the young children will imply how the class will be structure throughout the year . Here are some of the things I would add to my classroom setting to make it as creative as possible.

(1)  Block Center- Children will be able to used legos, wooden blocks, ABC, or 123 blocks to have the most hands-on experience as they grow.    

·         (2) Reading and Writing Center- Will provide the students to express how they feel and what they think about the topic that is given that day.  

·         (3) Music/ Drama Center- Encouraging creativity which allows the children dress up and listen to music that is appealing to their interest.  

·         (4) Science Center- Many students love the nature and love to see how the world works around us. This center will give a lot of information and experiment lessons  

Whether you're a fresh teacher setting up your classroom for the very first time or a skilled teacher considering to make over your classroom, you as a teacher should know how significant it is to design a classroom blueprint that simplifies learning and has an impact on the environment around the students.
