In this week’s episode of our Classroom Setup Mini-Series, we’re focusing on how to set up your classroom in a way that naturally invites curiosity, creativity, and exploration. Something every kindergarten classroom needs.
I’m sharing simple, teacher-tested ideas for creating thoughtful play areas like a science center, sensory table, block corner, and dramatic play zone—even if you’re short on space. You’ll also hear tips on how to decorate with intention (not clutter), how to follow your students’ interests, and how to keep things calm and engaging without overstimulating visuals.
In this episode I share:
- What to include in your science and sensory centers
- How to follow student curiosity in everyday routines
- Why less is more when it comes to classroom decor
- How your modeling can encourage creativity
