New year. New decor

 The end of a school year means the beginning of a new.

I always look forward to choosing my classroom theme each year. One thing that remains the same each year are calm colors and clean and organized displays. (I cringe at the thought of a bright, cluttered classroom.) I find neutral colors promote calmness and a sense of relaxation, great for encouraging long-term concentration. A little sprinkle of Reggio Emilia into an upper elementary learning space. Creating a feeling of ease, a great way for little minds to start their school day.

Calming woods, lots of greenery (eucalyptus is my favorite), and organized supplies.

Keep it simple, bright, and happy.
