Creating a Welcoming Classroom Environment

Help me give my students a welcoming classroom environment. The students would benefit from a calming atmosphere with posters to remind them to take care of their mental health.

My Project

This classroom project will help our classes get materials that we need to help reinforce mental health awareness with posters that are posted throughout the year. I want my students to like being at school, and hope to create a room that they find inviting.

We have included items that will help the students like the classroom environment, and create a welcoming space that they want to be a part of.

We have picked out lights, tapestry, ELA learning posters, bulletin board supplies, and other pieces to include to create our classroom into becoming a place that we like to be.

Along with the classroom environment we have requested some Spanish materials for our Spanish speaking students to read. This will greatly help students with their learning and comprehension.
