LEarning Environment

Organize your classroom thoughtfully to establish a conducive learning environment with a strong emphasis on safety and accessibility. Ensure that the various learning centers, such as Math, ELA, Science, Art, Dramatic Play, Building, Library, Writing, etc., are not only clearly evident but also inviting. Optimize the space by minimizing clutter and reducing overstimulation, embracing a child-friendly, fun, and welcoming approach that significantly enhances the overall learning experience for your students. 

"The TK classroom environment sets the stage for learning and interactions between students and adults. It also establishes the expectations for behavior in the classroom.  This video segment reviews methods for creating an organized and inviting TK learning environment. Effective practices in creating learning areas, supplying the classroom with materials, and creating classroom displays are reviewed. Ideas for extending learning and promoting physical development into the outdoor environment are also featured" (CDE, 2013)
