One of the most important parts of being a teacher is creating a positive environment in
the classroom for the students. A positive classroom atmosphere begins with a positive teacher
and staff, which then will help the students. There is no perfect definition of what a positive
classroom is, but there are many ways to base a classroom off of one. To start, classrooms with
positive environments often have a teacher with an optimistic outlook that motivate the students.
Without this, it is nearly impossible to have students be positive and productive. The setting of a
classroom also must be a relaxing and comforting area for the students, which will help them feel
safe and welcomed. In an ideal situation, group work and free seating should be available if
possible, to the students, especially because students will tend to work better if they feel
comfortable with the people they are working around. Group work helps students’ bond with
their peers, even if they were not friends previously. There are many different shapes and forms
to help create a positive culture and climate within the classroom, but it all starts with the
Having a positive classroom environment can change the outcome of a student for the
better. According to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, you never know what a child’s homelife may
be like. Many students are unmotivated to go to school or do work because they do not have
support at home. Often times these children are overlooked as the ‘bad’ kids at school, but there
is no such thing as a ‘bad’ child. Everyone has a story behind the mask they have up, which often
times happens in schools. Love and belonging alone can help influence a child to become
motivated in school, especially if it comes from their teacher. If teachers give their students a
positive classroom environment, and incorporate feelings of love, safety, and belonging in their
classroom, motivation will rise. Students will want to learn and will want to impress their teacher
Positive classroom environment and academic achievement are related on the same level
as motivation with Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Feeling love and belonging will help them rise
up the hierarchy pyramid, which will help them succeed academically. Having an optimistic
classroom along with motivated students will increase the amount of academic achievement
amongst the classroom. When students have healthy competition with the peers in their class,
they will want to show that they have potential to the teacher and show that they are capable of
earning good grades. If the teacher rewards the students for having good grades, whether its
stickers, prizes, or any type of motivation, academics will improve drastically in the classroom.
