= __**The Environment**__ = =**2A: Creating an of Respect and Rapport**= These students are presenting a Cinquain poem that they wrote about a Cobra. Each student wrote a line of the poem and now they are presenting it to the class. All the other students are listening quietly, as they read it. || == || =**2D: Managing Student Behavior**=
 * These students are doing calendar in a first grade classroom. The students are sitting quietly, as the leaders of the day are leading the calendar. The leaders are rotated each day, so every student gets a chance to run calendar wall. The other students know to sit quietly, be respectful and listen to the leaders. The know not to interupt the leaders, or talk to their friends. The leaders that if the students arent listening they will redirect their attention back to calendar wall. This teaches students how to be respectful to others, and also gives them a sense of responsibility. || = [[image:CalendarWall2.jpg width="432" height="296"]] = ||
 * =2B: Establishing a Culture for Learning=
 * This is a chart that assesses student behavior each day. This allows the parents to be informed of what is going on in the classroom, and how their child is behaving. There is a place at the bottom for the teacher to do an end of the week assessment on the behavior for the entire week. At the bottom it has a place for the parents to sign, and be returned. I translated it into Spanish to keep all the parents in my classroom informed.**

=**2E: Organizing Physical Space**=
 * This is a classroom layout for my dream classroom. There is enough space f****or all the students to work without feeling squished. There are ample places for storage as well as places for the students to work in centers. There is a designated reading area, with cozy chairs, bookshelves and a colorful carpet. A special place for the students to put their backpacks will help keep their desks and chairs clean. There are two different rugs for the students to sit on for whole-group instruction. As well as two whiteboards for the teacher to us****e. Both are positioned so that they are visibl****e to all students****.**
