My students would benefit greatly from having curtains in the classroom. I have eight large windows along two walls. Without curtains, it is virtually impossible to darken the room enough to view anything from the projector. I would like to do activities that include hands-on interaction with the smartboard; but the amount of sunlight in my room prevents this. I would like to show video clips to students to engage them when introducing a new topic; clips are impossible to see.
Further, often the sun is glaring so brightly through the windows, the students have a difficult time seeing the teacher and seeing their own work. We have been forced to stick paper on the windows to help with this eyesore! (The kids deserve better.)
As an added benefit, curtains will provide a warm and welcoming classroom environment for my students, that will aid in providing the "safe haven" feeling I hope all my students feel when they enter my classroom.
