This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
The first thing you notice when you walk into a classroom is how is it set up. Therefore, setting up the classroom is a must to welcome scholars back from the summer vacation.
A classroom that is engaging and fun creates an inviting space that engages learners by making them feel excited to be at school.
Our classroom will be my scholars' space - where their ideas and learning fill the walls.
Scholars deserve to be in a classroom that is designed to benefit them by making sure there are minimal distractions and maximal opportunities for quality learning.
I will use the classroom decorations to help make our classroom aesthetically pleasing. Additionally, I will use anchor paper to create anchor charts to set my scholars up for success. Since we are in the age of "mask-wearing", the voice amplifier will be used to ensure all scholars are able to hear during class instruction. The mail organizer will be used as storage for my scholars' materials. The chess and checker games will be used during indoor recess. Lastly, the diffuser will be used to help create a calming environment.
Thank you for helping me create a positive learning space that my students are excited to come to every day.
