Background

school as chore,

school as wit,

how can a place with so little of the room lit captivate our time and place.

it captivates my mind and space.

understanding, rejoicing, hearing, seeing, knowing.

school as an environment of love.

it can be one,

it can be fun,

but how can this space of love be done?

What is a place where you feel loved?

My project is focused on ways to cultivate an environment of love in  classrooms. I'm thinking about snacks and soda, arithmetic and art, bean  bags and beakers. I consider possible steps for teachers and students to all contribute to an environment of support, compassion, and ultimately understanding of one another's beautiful perspectives.
