Wether it is just a drawing from art class or a poster designed by a small group during a lesson. I want to take a blank wall or small space and use it to display student artwork.]]> 2020-11-04 00:24:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888232491 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888232493 I want to make sure we get outside as much as we can when the weather is nice. During recess or even a class that I can tie outside aspects into. ]]> 2020-11-04 00:24:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888232493 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888232495 I want to make sure my students feel empowered when they are in my classroom. I wouldn't fill it head-to-toe with empowering posters; but I want a few that a student could glance at if they are having a bad day.]]> 2020-11-04 00:24:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888232495 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888233747 I want there to be a comfy space away from the rest of the room where students can go to read if that is their preferred space to read. I also want to have book buddies here!]]> 2020-11-04 00:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888233747 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888243094 I want a small space set aside; maybe by the reading nook that a student can go to if they are not feeling well mentally. A place they can calm themselves down if they feel they are getting worked up without distracting the entire class.]]> 2020-11-04 00:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888243094 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888255149 I would have a word wall somewhere in the room where everyone can see it from their desks to try and remember sight words.]]> 2020-11-04 00:37:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888255149 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888270578 I want to have decor on the door; especially with their names and maybe faces around the beginning of the school year just so they know what their classroom door looks like. I would change it with the seasons and holidays the students celebrate!]]> 2020-11-04 00:45:04 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888270578 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888280787 I want to have fairy lights and lamps because overhead lights can be very bright and overwhelming. I would also use as much natural light as I could and have the windows be behind the student's desks so they don't get the sun in their eyes! ]]> 2020-11-04 00:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888280787 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888285526 I would have flexible seating as well as a standing desk for students to be able to be comfortable and not be distracted from fidgeting in a seating they are not comfortable in.]]> 2020-11-04 00:52:42 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888285526 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888291505 I would totally have some sort of emergency binder for a substitute. I would have something written out for each day of the week just incase I wake up sick or something. I want the substitute to be able to pick up where I left off and not be confused. ]]> 2020-11-04 00:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888291505 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888301005 I have always liked centers and I think they are a great way to spend free time/recess. I think learning through play is a great thing with all early grades.]]> 2020-11-04 01:00:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888301005 cateeakin https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888311206 I want to have a stuffed classroom pet that each student can take turns taking home each weekend and keep a journal. During the week I will use it as positive behavior motivation; tell the students "a special, well-behaved student will get to take Fluffy home this weekend. I would have backup ones just incase an accident happens as well.]]> 2020-11-04 01:07:01 UTC https://padlet.com/cateeakin/u59nhzab2he20plh/wish/888311206
