My Ideal Classroom

My ideal classroom is entirely based on fun. My main objective is for kids to come
into my classroom and feel that my classroom is a whole lot of fun. Not only do I want my
classroom to be fun, but I also want it to be a special place for all my children. My ideal
classroom would have all of the services for all of my children to learn, grow, and thrive. At
the same time, I want my classroom to be simple and not too serious.
I feel a busy classroom tends to make children feel overwhelmed and more easily
distracted.
I would also have a computer centre in my classroom. I feel that children need many tools,
in order to learn and grow. Even though a computer is a machine, I feel that it is a vital part
of the classroom. I would hope to have at least two computers for my students to work on.
Some children do not have access to computers at home and I think that they play a huge
role in the child’s success. Using technology in the classroom is important. My classroom
would also have many visuals aids. I want every part of my classroom to be a learning aide.
The children should learn from what I put on the walls.
I would have many signs up for the different centers and basically everything to cater
to the grade level that I teach. I would also make sure that I cater to any of the special needs
students will probably have next to the computer station. I would love to have a “Hands
on” science center where children can try new things and learn from experiments. I think it
would be fun for my students to learn and at the same time “fool” around with all the neat
science stuff.
