  Case: How would you create and promote a safe atmosphere in your classroom?
If you are asked this question in a job interview for a teaching position: What are some things you should avoid when responding to this question? What might be some important points to stress that would get the interviewer's attention? How would you respond to this question?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Avoid: Making claims that students with disabilities are of little concern, or that student safety is not a key belief.

Stress: That safety is a key to a successful classroom and that I take great strides to keep all my students safe.

Response: I want my students to be able to get up and move around, as well as participate in activities without the concerns of getting hurt. I want to be sure to keep everyone safe and keep learning enjoyable.

Comments: A "safe" atmosphere should also be a comfortable atmosphere for the students. I like how you stress that all your students are safe, but how would you do that. I think having a safe "corner" with books, and a chair or carpet would be an area for a child who just needs down time or quiet time to themselves. Along with colorful and welcoming learning aspects around the classroom.
