So Helpful
I’m so pleased I found this audiobook! It’s very easy to simply do the same thing year after year but I’m now inspired to make changes (improvements) to my classroom. I won’t be waiting til the new school year to implement these,inc softening lighting and introducing music
I will be vigilant for “bubblegum corner “too!
Good job,narrator,too

A Great source for creating a classroom!
The book is about useful tips and information to create a classroom. This guides you not only how to tidy a classroom but also guides for teacher attitudes, and student achievement. It talks about time management as well.
It is imperative that classroom must be nice and tidy, so students can focus on studying.
Great ideas for teachers, one of the tips advises to take a break, take a walk, read for ten minutes, and close your eyes. The last tip I like most, quitting time. Do not email to parents at night!!!!
Highly recommended to teachers.

Perfect guide for busy teachers!
Loved this quick-start audiobook reviewing the best tips for setting up your classroom. The book is the perfect length as teachers are so busy taking care of their students long after they leave the classroom. Not only does the author review physical layout and inventory tips to help you be resourceful with what you have, you'll get mental and emotional tips for creating helpful space that recharge you and helps you be present with the students. I highly recommend this one!

Valuable tips I’d never thought of
I’m delighted to have listened to this audiobook. Not only can this be used in the classroom, but there’s so much here to help out in your own life. Especially when tired and/or distracted having a well structured classroom calms the mind and makes functioning in it so much better. I look forward to putting this book into practice. Also I completely resonated with the labelling machine. Great book, thank you.

Great book for understanding 21stCentury Education
One must listen to this book if one wants to understand 21st-century education. This is a fantastic small book for new teachers (or anyone who wants another perspective on their room). It's good that it starts with safety before moving on to mental health. It attends to everyone's needs (students, teachers, etc.). Great. Also very well narrated by Jessica Ryan. The fact that this book was clearly arranged and easy to read with no filler is one reason why I loved it. I envision a lot of teachers benefiting greatly from this. It contains a lot of excellent concepts that are both useful and informative. As this is essential to establishing a safe environment for the students and instructors in the room and promotes healthy learning, I found particular value in the parts on creating a healthy mental and emotional space in the classroom.

Excellent Book
Excellent audiobook packed with useful content and strategies relating to designing elementary classrooms. It's an easy listen, with great narration, and the information is set out in a clear and easily-understandable manner. The author uses her substantial expertise to guide you into creating best practices for your classroom. I loved the focus not only on physical space but on mental and emotional aspects too. I was very impressed with this book and highly recommend it for all teachers.

Fantastic
I shared this book with my sister in law, who is an elementary school teacher and she loved it as well! She loved the attention to detail the book provided with insight for maximizing her space, as well as learning different ways to place and design an environment that would help induce the children's learning in her classroom. All in all this book did not disappoint in the slightest!
