The Classroom Environment


First and foremost, you should be comfortable in your classroom. You should be able to walk where you want to walk, look where you want to look, and organize your supplies how you want to organize them.
  
     Most classrooms, unfortunately are designed, constructed, and furnished in ways that make it difficult for students to stay motivated and involved in the learning process.” Thomas Gordon, TET: Teacher Effectiveness Training (1974, p. 156).
