Classroom Distracting

Improved Essays
The classroom is neatly decorated, not too distracting to the students. It is decorated so that the students feel at ease and in a community like setting. Each hallway has a community meeting area in the middle for the classes to come out in to and use as a meeting area. Many teachers use this area as a celebration area by allowing students to lounge out and read during free time or their regular scheduled reading period. The classroom is taught mostly by Mrs. Doss herself, one of the special education teachers come into the classroom daily and pull out two specific students for reading. She also comes into the classroom for math with these two students as well, but stays in the classroom so that the students receive the lesson and can work

    It is a former science room, and has two doors: one that opens to the outside faculty parking lot, and another is the main entrance that students use to enter the classroom from A Hall. This classroom is much larger than some of the other classrooms in the building, probably because it used to have science laboratory capabilities. The classroom is inviting, with a Breakfast at Tiffany’s poster and quote lining one wall, and every day, an inspirational quote that illuminates her smart board that helps inspire students before the start of class. In addition, there is a teacher’s desk at both the front and back ends of the room, and the room is built to house about 30…

    Room 0742 is a studio design room located in king pavilion at the Iowa State University college of design. In a way it represents the beginning of my journey at Iowa State, for it is the first class room I had ever been in as a student, and its represents hours and hours of hard work and dedication to my major. It is a rather bittersweet place with times where it became a place to put my work on display as well as a place to spend many long nights and very early mornings working and developing. The space itself physically is not a room by traditional means it has no doors and stall like walls that rise above the ground six to eight inches as well as an opening at the top.…

    The four stages are: Birth – two years - sensorimotor stage, two years to seven years – preoperational stage, seven years to eleven years – concrete operational stage, and eleven years to fifteen years – formal operational stage. This paper will address a classroom designed to benefit the development of toddlers who are in the preoperational stage (Lefrancois, 2012). Children in the early preoperational stage are extremely egocentric; that is they are unable to think about things from any point of view but their own (McLeod, 2010).

    Field Experience Working as a Para educator in the Mt. Pleasant School District had opened my understanding about how important it is the job of a teacher. As I observed Mrs. Ensminger performed her duties, it has confirmed my conviction that a teacher is a teacher because they do not see their duties as a job it is a calling. Mrs. Ensminger, a level 1 special education teacher, is already at school no later than 7:15 am. Before school even starts she is already coordinated with core class teachers what she need to work on every individual student under her care. First period in her class is Science.…

    As a student I have many opportunities to observe attention. Whether I am observing myself slowly lose my ability to focus on my instructors or observing a fellow student staring blankly into space while the instruction continues to give their lecture. While it would be nice to be able to give 100% of my attention to my instructors’ lectures, it is impossible to do so because attention is limited in both time and capacity. There is also an observable difference in students that engage in selective attention and divided attention. Student that are looking at the instructor and not having their attention distracted are using selective attention to focus on the message from the instructor and not on everything else.…

    I think that it is important for the students have enough room to move around. My classroom will consist of many different elements however, not too much that it might overwhelm the students. Overall my classroom will consist of a class library, rectangle tables, a color map where the students would meet, a cabinet that holds school supplies, and a promethean board. Speaking from personal experience I am easily distracted by anything so I wouldn’t want to decorate my wall with a bunch of posters. No more than five posters would be displayed on the wall.…
