My kids have told me over and over that they wanted to send my name and picture to those make-over television shows. I finally understood what they were talking about. Kids want their surroundings to be upbeat, creative, visually appealing, modern, what they like, and fun!
When they spend most of their awake time in the classroom, and you as well, it is no wonder they respond to the environment in which they are in. How would you like your bedroom if you have to spend 7 hours (awake) each day?
The phrase "You are what you eat" goes true for the classroom. You learn according to the energy flow of the room and your surroundings. An uncluttered room or area is more conducive for learning than a cluttered area. The more space the freer the energy will be able to move in the classroom, less stress on everyone and a more attentive class.
Why not clear the clutter and replace it with fun things!
Easy suggestions include:
Bulletin boards with themes like baby pictures or funny pictures
Funny ads
Cartoons
Joke of the Day
Funny Signs
Include the students in each step: the cleaning, sorting, organizing, planning, and preparation. Have different people assigned to the tasks for accountability like you do student of the week.
Changing the room will lighten up the student's day and yours. Your lesson will go smooth and they will be more agreeable to participating in their learning. Start a subject with something from your make-over that will enhance the mood for learning.
Keep the fun in mind with decorating your room. Create a makeover for the FUN of it!

Type 2 Diabetes - Your Metabolism Make-Over to Help With Weight Loss
Losing weight is important if you have Type 2 diabetes. But are you struggling to lose those last 10 pounds? If you feel like no matter how hard you try to lose weight, you just can't move any closer to your end goal, your metabolism may be to blame.
Your metabolic rate governs how well or how poorly your body burns calories. But you need to lose fat, not muscle.
While many people are quick to write off their failed progress on a slow metabolism, what few people realize is this is not always just genetic. They may blame their parents who happen to also be overweight for their struggle, claiming they inherited this difficulty with fat loss.
But, is that really the case? Often the person to blame is yourself if you have not been leading a proper lifestyle.
Let's go over the steps you should take to make over your metabolism so fat loss becomes easier again.
Focus On Strength Training, Not Cardio
First, when it comes to your workouts, the number one thing you can do is focus on strength training over cardio training. Too much cardio training is the fastest route to lean muscle mass loss and this will have a significant influence on your resting metabolic rate.
Strength training works to improve your resting metabolic rate, cardio training lowers it.
Eat Mini-Meals Focused Around Protein
Next, for your eating plan, start focusing on eating more mini-meals that are based around protein sources. Eating regularly throughout the day trains your body that it's okay to utilize body fat as more fuel will be coming in.
If you are not eating regularly, your body will have a tendency to store excess energy for times of need.
The protein in the diet helps to boost your metabolism even further, so this can have a very strong effect on your progression.
Stay Hydrated
Staying well hydrated is another often overlooked metabolic booster. Even slight amounts of dehydration can negatively impact your hydration status, so it's not something to forget about.
Drink at least 8 glasses of water each day, if not more, and if you can, sip some green tea. It has even further metabolic benefits that will help assist you.
Sleep More, Party Less
Finally, the last thing to note is you should do your best to get more sleep, which is a metabolic enhancer and drink less alcohol, which is a metabolic crusher.
Lifestyle factors do add up and can play a key role in how quickly your body is utilizing stored body fat.
So there you have some fast and quick tips to remember about your lifestyle, nutrition, and exercise habits and how they influence your metabolism. Get them right and fat loss will progress along far more easily.
Type 2 diabetes is not a condition you must just live with. By making simple changes to your daily routine, its possible to protect your heart, kidneys, eyes and limbs from the damage often caused by high blood sugar, and eliminate many of the complications you may already experience.
