Here are the pictures to accompany my response to this week discussion leader's (Katy) post:
The best example of a classroom environment I have seen is Mrs. Bush's 3rd grade
class at Parkview Elementary. As you will see in the pictures on my individual
blog, desks are grouped with ample space between for movement, students have
posted jobs each week, groups can change easily, and directions for the morning
are clearly outlined on the board. Students have ample supplies in plastic
cabinets at their table groups, making them self-sufficient and not reliant on
the teacher. The walls boast great work and important information. I think this
environment is a key factor to Mrs. Bush's students showing huge growth year
after year.
