Teachers: as you set up your classrooms, I challenge to leave as much empty space on your walls as you can tolerate. Ask your kids what they need/like: anchor charts, furniture arrangement, lighting, etc. Give them a voice in creating their learning environment!
@sbkaufman It seems to me we are taught that saying something weird is acceptable in only some contexts. Impulsivity, control and desire for acceptance affect willingness and the ability to just let it fly.
