Abstract
Listen to an early learning classroom, a room filled with laughter, giggles, and squabbles over toys. Watch your step in an early learning classroom, a floor where crawling kids chase light-up shoes worn by running kids. Pay attention to an early learning classroom, a space where multiple pots of aromatic plants thrive, where a puddle of spilled milk is drying. Then, feel an early learning classroom. Put yourself in this room as an early childhood educator, so that you can feel how this room is calling on you to respond—to what you hear, see, smell, and feel— carefully and thoughtfully.
