Learning Environment

The main purpose of learning environment standard is to ensure that teachers use their ability to provide a safe, warm, and welcoming environment to the students where they learn and grow. It also includes comfortable seating arrangement, establishing clear rules, giving them an opportunity to choose a place in a classroom where they are conducive to learn.

Three of the many ways I demonstrated this standard during my time as a student teacher is:

a) Arranging the classroom to maximize learning while providing a safe environment.

b) Establishing clear expectations, and enforcing them consistently and fairly.
