Walking into a 21st century (ECSP, K-2) classroom, I vision success. A classroom where when you enter the door you know that there will be learning taking place and all the students are eager and ready to learn. I can see it now; the walls are covered with bright colors and information that will help the students learn. For instance, at the top of every wall there will be alphabet and number border going around it. The themes of the classroom would also be posted on the walls or hanging from the ceiling. Some of those themes would be, "Read to Succeed", "Count Aloud, Make Me Proud", and "Take a Break and Play", just to name a few. There would also be a wall that displays the students work, and progress. The floors would have carpet on it that represented every subject. One would have numbers, one the alphabet, another would have the planets, and the last one would have the map of the U.S. on it. If that doesn't cover the visible part of the floor, there would also be carpets with the different type of weather, the days of the week, the months of the year, or even colors. Of course there will be tables and chairs for the children to do work on. And being that the world is so technologically advanced, there will be two to five computers or laptops available for the students to work on. But that is only the appearance.
Not only should the classroom look inviting but it should also be inviting. Therefore, being that music is a great learning tool each day should start with a song. Not only would the students be learning but this would also give them the opportunity to sing and dance. From there, the class would go over what day it is, that includes the month, the day, the year, and the day of week. After all of that is established, the student will engage in a plethora of fun learning activities. Whether they are learning to read, write, count or do math, color, work on the computers, and ectera, they will be having a great time doing it. At the end of every day, the students would be required to tell one thing that they have learned and they would receive a light homework package.
