STRUCTURING
WHAT IS CLASSROOM STRUCTURING?
The act by which a teacher or a mentor prepares
his/her classroom to become a safe environment,
one where learners can enjoy themselves and focus
on learning.
ITS IMPORTANCE
 In a structured learning environment,
pupils/students are more likely to flourish and
experience individual and educational growth.
 Teachers who build a structured classroom will find
that they enjoy their jobs more, see more growth in
their students, and experience more positivity.
 Having a structured classroom does take
commitment and determination from the teacher,
however the prizes are well worth the time, effort,
and preparation needed.
