The Headquarters of Teaching & Learning!

When there is an increase in student registration and an additional classroom is needed:

The real complicated issue becomes...

Where to host this additional functional classroom in an already crowded school?


Yes, I've been that teacher who has been challenged by space when preparing an effective, productive, and safe learning classroom. 

Creating this functional working classroom space required planning, ordering, organizing, responsibility, and time. When feeling exhausted and frustrated I redirected my energy and gained motivation by focusing on the students who were anticipating an adventurous learning space to call their own.





At times I felt extremely challenged with my decision to transform this space into a functional classroom space. 

What was I thinking? 
Would I have it ready for the first day of school?

I would have never pulled off this amazing transformation without the selfless hours and emotional and physical support that my parents so lovingly provided me with.


As educators we are required by the department of education pursuant of state and federal laws to provide and maintain common elements in all of our learning classrooms
