            In order for self-directed learning to take place, our whole learning
            environment room, materials and social climate are supportive of the
            learner. We provide necessary resources, including opportunities for
            children to function in a safe and positive environment. The teacher
            thus gains the children's trust, which enables them to try new things
            and build self-confidence.
            In our learning environment we have the following:
            Ÿ Schedules that allows large blocks of uninterrupted learning time.
            Ÿ Space for personal, small group, and whole class learning activities.
            Ÿ Lightweight, proportionate, movable child-sized furnishings.
            Ÿ Identifiable ground rules.
