As we came back to school this year, a portion of our professional development time was focused around studying nurturing environments. In what ways were we offering nurturing places and experiences for children? And just as importantly, how could we offer those same nurturing elements for adults? Arrange your space and routines to promote community was one of the principles we examined. Knowing that children and adults alike feel more relaxed in a homelike environment than an institutional one, we considered various ways of bringing home into our school setting. Our new living room is just one example of this work. I hope you are enjoying using it as much as I am.
