My ideal classroom begins with color and seamless design.
I would like 3 walls to be orange in color with an accent wall falling more into the pastel yellow or a beige to creme area, not white. Lowe’s Gallon of paint - $34.98. covers about 350 sq ft.
I want to keep the white board, I just don’t like chalk boards.
Another suggestion for walls that’s inexpensive and would actually include student contribution: We could display art on the walls from our very own student’s hand picked to provide ambience in the classroom.
I would also place plant life into the room to add green…
$59.36-Lowes
Desks should be ergonomical and seamless in design to champion flexibility and continuity in the the classroom. I also chose these table because of the adjustable height
I like this adjustable height mobile computer table with power and usb. It’s available in 3 sizes… Cost - $184.88 to $226.88 .
Seating should be somewhat the same comfortable, providing support, adjustable height and mobile. Cost $76.88
switching to a more durable commercial carpet can cost anywhere from $.64 cents a square foot to $1.04 cents. Still can’t figure out what flooring I would switch to.
However, if i had to choose
Suggested lighting would be full spectrum lighting, which has had vast studies done since the early 1970’s. It has been shown to reduce strain on the eyes, promotes focus and memory retention as well as improvement of grades and is healthier than the traditional lighting of fluorescent / incandescent light bulbs… here is a link that discusses the lighting even further
Depending on quantity purchased… $6.50(100) $7.00 (25-99) and $8.00(up to 24)
