With the myriad of things good teachers and caregivers must do everyday, examining the physical environment can easily be overlooked or forgotten. Yet designing a good space benefits everyone. In peaceful classrooms, children and their families feel welcome, child-centered activities happen easily, and those who use the space feel comfortable and have the ability to take ownership. The environments which thoughtful teachers and caregivers design make a big difference in children’s success in child care and beyond. The environment in the classroom has a profound effect on the feelings and actions of the children, their families, and the teachers. The world children are presented with will make a big difference in their lifelong journey!
With this carpet, students will have a comfortable place to work that will enable them to move around the room and get out of their seats. Many students need to work in a variety of areas around our small room. It will also provide a place away from home to call their own. The purpose of decorating a classroom is to create a functional space for learning. The classroom arrangement will allow for student-focused arrangements that are more engaging and active, and can create a structure/control for the social interaction that my students need. Providing my students with a work environment will be the ingredient to provide classroom structure that has the potential to serve up a warm, inviting, safe, and secure environment for my students.
