For parents or educators-what would you like in a classroom environment.?

Question

I am in college and we are doing a survey on classroom environment. What would you prefer to have in your / your child's classroom? One has suggested a swimming pool. It would benefit the children, teachers and community with lifegaurds, of course.

If your school had the money to fund a specific program, buy new equipment, etc. what would you want them to buy?

Answer 1

I would love to have an extensive children's library sorted in tubs by either genre or by author in my classroom with a reading loft above. I also would want to add a modern CD&cassette listening center for them to use at center time.

I teach 1st grade in a public school, by the way.
