=Organization of the classroom=

We know that in the early stages of primary education is very important to organize the class in a dynamic way because for pupils with a suitable working environment leads to a learning process also suitable.

As future teachers think within a class must have different learning environments, and therefore we have divided the class into areas where students can work incorporating both educational competences and different intelligences. Thus, as we can see from the map, in the classroom there are these areas:

- Pupils zone

- Library

- Coat rack

- Shelves

- Carpet zone

- Digital área

- Displays

- Recycling zone

- Plants, sink and sank.

- Area to resolve conflicts.

__Pupils zone__

In this area, there are five tables in center of the classroom.. The place of the students in their desks, were changed each two weeks. In this area there are more routines: clean up, hands up, sit down in their chairs… Here, we work with the interpersonal competence, learn to learn and citizenship competence. chairs… Here, we work with the interpersonal competence, learn to learn and citizenship competence.

__Library__

Reading is a very important task that must be instilled since the children are young, so we need a space that enhances the taste and interest of the children for this. This corner plays an important role in supporting and enriching the learning of children, in turn encouraging, independently, enjoyment and appreciation from the early years of our children's important value that books have value as a source of pleasure and learning.

We understand that the library should bring children to all possibilities this source can provide. Therefore, we try to equip them with all sorts of printed material from different tales from children's literature to magazines, catalogs, encyclopedias, cookbooks and newspapers.

In this zone children can take books to read. The main objective of this area is that children acquire the habit of reading. Here, there are different resources and types of books:

-Books organized by different topic.

-Book read control with the name of the pupil, the day that he takes and leaves it, and the name of the book.

-The travel book with a one topic that each week one pupil carries out to his house.

-Books about the unit.

-Rules of the classroom library.

-Tree with leaves where children write the title of the book that they have to read.

__Coat Rack__

Here children left their clothes, the school bags and the bottles of water. In the coat rack each student will have their own drawer to deposit their belongings. In each of them we will put your name, to avoid confusion.

__Shelves__

The materials of the kindergarten classroom can be grouped as follows:

-Materials of Assembly:

At the assembly we use the corkboard where we have all the material to perform daily routines, roll, spread colors, almanac, newspaper managers, workshops and distribution of corners, etc. We also use stories, material for auditions, books riddles, poems, etc.

-Material of corners:

The material will be placed in their respective corner. Placed in large containers that allow us to collect it easily. Each corner will be decorated according to the theme that we work on it. Children were instructed to collect daily the corner where they have played.

-Material For work in workshops and other records:

This material is classified into many groups as we have computers and will be placed on a shelf. It is classified by color, a color for each of the teams. The daily charge of each team will go to your site to collect relevant necessary to work his team material. When finished it will put everything in place. These everyday materials are pens, crayons, thin and thick markers, scissors, punches, pads, adhesives, rubbers, sharpeners, etc.

Tablet - one for student

-Other Types of materials:

All material used sporadically organized shelf will be somewhere, so the teacher what you have available when necessary. In this material can be found cardboard, clay, patent paper, crepe paper, colored foils, cellophane, etc.

__Carpet zone__

One of the most important areas in the classroom is the space in which students may meet to conduct any activity that the teacher sees fit to work in a more casual space or simply any activity that seeks to relax the students. This space is composed of different materials so that the teacher can carry out the process of learning from a more informal and attractive perspective. So this space is defined by a carpet which will be divided by square for each student to have their own space within it. You have to tell the students that no one has an assigned space but we will post as we reaching the carpet. It is important to remember that one of the class rules is not run or scream, so when the teacher will use this space to remind students how to move around the classroom; quiet and orderly.

In addition to this carpet, the relaxation area is located next to the library for students to read in a more relaxed manner. It is essential that this area is next to a window so that the students can use the sunlight. This measure will teach you better use sunlight rather than electricity, thus help preserve the environment.

__Digital area__

The digital blackboard and the computer are resources in which playing and learning are linked, so it occupies a central place in our classroom. This allows us to reinforce, complement or even expand as we work daily in class.

These resources will use it to investigate and extract information. In this workshop we try that our students understand the useful of an instrument such as the Internet.

In this area, we work the digital competence and learn to learn. The resources that we work are:

- The teacher can explain a topic to the class.

- Encourage use of TIC´s.

- Students can do exercises for all class.

- Teacher can see if the students make an exercise.

- Show videos, films, songs…

__Displays__

In the walls of the class, we put different displays:

- Displays of rules.

- Rules of class.

- Groups of the desks.

- A big cardboard with the assistance of students and who did the homework.

- Behaviour gomets. The gomets give and keep out of the students according to the good or bad behaviour.

- Displays of science and maths about the topic that explain.

__Recycling zone__

It is important to educate our students the problem that we are currently in

our society, the degradation and destruction of environmental. It is necessary to teach habits to combat this situation and help improve it. For this in our class we have a recycling zone. Here, there are three trash can: One of them is the blue colour for paper, other yellow for plastic and other orange for organic.

__Plants, Sink & Sand__

- Plants: In this corner is where will be placed the experiments with plants of our teaching unit.

Numerous studies have shown that indoor plants provide a number of benefits for health and wellbeing. We put several plants, also in class, on the subject of plants, and each child will plant and take care of your plant.  Sink: For proper hygiene, or for the use of this mineral in different experiments or situations.

-Sand: To carry out experiment.

__Area to resolve conflicts__

The traffic lights of emotions is one way to resolve problems. There are more than one traffic light in a class. It has three circles in each circle one colour and one sentence.

· Red: what happened? How do you feel?

· Yellow: what can we do? Think of solutions!

· Green: give it a try!

When children have a problem they will take one traffic light and hang from their necks. They follow the steps of the traffic light, first they talk about what happened, children give possible solutions, teacher also gives a solution and they decide which the best solution is. Finally they try the solution and if this is not the right one, they try with other.
