Unit 7 Discussion

Classroom Environments             

Setting up an early childhood classroom can be an overwhelming task! There are many variables to consider, such as placement of equipment and materials, plans for health and safety, and spaces to encourage social interactions. In this video, you will have the opportunity to look inside an infant and toddler classroom to watch for key features for an effective classroom setup. You will then describe two interesting features that you observed in the video  such as equipment, classroom, or playground.  Why do you think these choices were made, how are they developmentally appropriate (DAP), and how do you think they support the goals of the programs?

With a peer, discuss the design differences, similarities, and reasons for the choices you have each described.
