This color palette is bright, warm and inviting. The colors are found in nature and therefore convey peace, rather than overwhelming students with sensory overload. An overall theme of 'harmony' will be instilled as our relationships with each other reflect the special balance of harmony within nature. Respect, care and inquiry will be posted on the entry of the classroom wall.

This classroom will heavily integrate nature and observation. Since there will be many windows and natural light in most areas, trees and plants will be visible. Not only does this access to nature instill wonder, it is calming and lends itself to creative, reflective thought. Students will be encouraged to take personal reflection time throughout the day. Students may choose to work closer to a window or in the midst of others in main parts of the classroom. Respecting each person's learning style and social preferences is key.

The furniture and walls in this classroom are open and fluid. There are collaboration spaces, such as flexible seating. Whole-group learning will have many choices for seating. Students will be able to choose where they work (see elements) using the flexible seating options. The furniture will reflect elements of the outdoors and will require respect and responsibility to use and maintain. The glass walls will be a part of learning, not just teaching. Several walls will be dedicated to collaboration/STEM problem-solving. Additional glass panels will be scattered throughout the learning environment for student response. These panels will have themes that require student participation, such as 'I wonder', 'What's on my mind today', and 'I found this'. This will instill ownership and 'buy-in' for students in this classroom.

This class will heavily rely on the use of technology for virtual field trips, webcams, Skype interviews, coding and robotics. Students will learn through exploration and manipulation of their environment, both inside and outside the classroom walls (check out virtual reality sandbox video). Open spaces will be available for collaborative projects with technology, but most items will be mobile with a 2 to 1 ratio.
