Students are in the classroom for more hours in a day than in their own homes. I want to create an environment that is comfortable, inviting, and with the least amount of distraction to meet the needs of all my students and their varied learning styles. When Kindergarteners get together to collaborate as a team, they need their own personal space with a little bit of wiggle room so they can concentrate on the lesson and not their neighbor that may be sitting too close. Our classroom carpet is used throughout the day for morning meetings, classroom discussions, brain breaks and STEM building projects. Fluorescent lights can cause distractions as well leading to headaches/migraines for students and teachers. Harsh lights also make it difficult for students with special needs as they are sometimes more sensitive to light and noise than most people are. Light covers create a more natural light lending to a calming environment that promotes productive learning. I chose the color blue because it has been shown to have a soothing effect when it comes to behavior and moods.
