Space is a big issue for our classroom. Yet, given the chance to have a more spacious area there are numerous ideas to upgrade our current classroom.
Use of colorful and meaningful visuals for our children that will not entirely distract them but will engage and stimulate their thinking and curious caps.

The use of smaller tables is good to limit grouping into small group of two to four  children per table. In that way, children are not easily overwhelmed with the movements and noise from other. Likewise, peer modelling will be easier for each other.

Sectioning the class is very important so children will have a variety of areas they can explore and have their activities. Organizing the areas and highlighting what the area is for is through the arrangement of furniture like shelves and tables as well as use of carpets or mats. Those items can help children understand the physical structure of the class and they will know how to navigate and be more independent in class.

It is also important for the children that in class is not all work but there is also time to play and explore. Allotting areas like the block corner, reading corner and pretend play will make children learn to socialize, use their language and apply what they know from class activities or even with their prior experience.
Children should also be taught to upkeep the things they used by providing baskets, tray or bins and let them where it is kept on each area they explore.

The multimedia has enough space to accommodate a lot children even ten children at a time.

There is lack of organization of space  and seats  in this room so it could be resolved by using mats, bean bags or even pillows for children to know where to sit .

An option to sit on chairs could be arranged yet in a distance from the mat to avoid crowding and children bumping on furniture.

Having a decor of based on a story theme or even a common favorite of the children can make the multimedia room look fun and engaging.

Books can be arranged in way that the books are facing outwards than sideways for children to easily access to the book they like and lessens the struggle to return book they finished reading.

Use of baskets or trays with labels (i.e words or clip arts) to contain books  could be an option to upkeep books on shelves. With the use of color coded labels also attached on the cover of the book, it will be easier for the children to sort and return the books to the trays or baskets.

Additional features could be added in the multimedia decor such as  felt board with character cutouts of featured book (see the middle photo) for story reading or storytelling.
It could also be helpful for children to retell or recount the stories.

A word wall or a bulletin board of interesting facts or pictures for children to comment and talk about is an added bonus to include too.

Given the small space of or classroom, creating a more enticing corner can be done by teaching the children how to manage the small

Using small chairs, beanbags or pillows for them to know where each sit individually will avoid crowding on the area.

Likewise, not piling a lot of books and selecting books that are not bulky or thick placed on the shelf.

If books are selected and arranged that way, it will lessen the children to crowd on the area to get a book and they can easily return books back.

It is also more inviting if  the book corner is cozy. Use fabrics or curtain fixed as tents with cute fairy light as it gives the children a dreamy feeling which sets the mood as they read each line of the story or look at each picture on the page.

The multimedia room houses not just books but a couple of computer desktops for the class to use for video watching as lesson reinforcement .

The Multimedia Room especially the book area is not a popular area for the children.

Most of the picture books are wordy and its good when teachers read for the children.

Whenever a class of readers come in they are very enticed with books but can't find a spot they can be comfortable to read.

The children also pile up the book as they struggle to return it back back to the shelf especially when other books on shelf topple over.

This classroom is for 7 to 8 children. Most children likes to read books but they opt to read the book either going back to their seats or staying on the alphabet mat.

Yet most times, they don't stay to read that long in the book corner especially if crowd of children sit on the mat.

Children tend to bump onto each other on that small area which makes the children lose their interest to read books and stay on the  area

This is a classroom for our children whose age ranged from 3 to 5 years old. There are four batches of children that use this classroom. Due to the children varying level as well as some children are easily distracted, visuals are minimized.

The classroom is very small so a long table and small table are used in class. Chairs are stacked up and kept in the corner of the class.

Toys and stationery are placed separately on a open shelf for easy access of the children and teachers.

A mobile whiteboard is used so it can be brought outside if more space is needed for activities. It is used for circle time and lesson introduction in which teachers sets up and keeps chairs after. There are visuals used for rules posted on mobile white board.

There is a book corner for the children as demarcated by the alphabet mat with low level book shelf (refer to the photo on the other feature "our book corner")
