"Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely." Auguste Rodin
Through my years of teaching, there were times when I would think about the set up of my classroom, the materials I chose to use, my methods of teaching and what would happen if I had done things differently. I never had just one way of doing anything. With all I've been through and all I've done, I never thought any of my experiences were a waste of time.
The wisest decision I've ever made was trying it out.
In Chapter 3, Taberski points out the organization of classroom space, materials, and class schedules. I really enjoyed this chapter because I was able to relate to many of the experiences mentioned by Taberski. I love to organize! Organizing my classroom space was by far the best experience for me. Materials and class schedules were always worked out with colleagues. I had a very supportive grade level when I first came in to teaching. I had an abundance of resources and materials to execute any lesson. As a teacher, I believe that my classroom reflected the goals I had set up to achieve. Teachers should continue to create classrooms that reinforce strategies and methods that allow children to practice and experience learning.
