In this final episode of our Classroom Setup Mini-Series, I’m walking you through how to set up your classroom in a way that balances play, learning, and daily routines. Because yes, it’s absolutely possible to do all three without losing your mind or your floor space. 

You’ll hear how I use key classroom areas (like tables, the rug, and even my teacher table!) for both academics and play, plus tips for setting up spaces that support routines like math stations, independent reading, and writing time. I’ll also share how to make your classroom layout work for you, from lunch procedures to bathroom routines to choosing the right spot for student supplies.

In this episode I share how to:

• Set up flexible spaces that serve multiple purposes
• Design routines that make classroom management easier
• Encourage independence with simple systems
• Create a learning environment that feels calm, clear, and kid-friendly
