Besides the"wow!" factor, a makeover is an ideal opportunity to show students who you are and what you like, and convey that you care enough about them to create a unique environment they can enjoy. It encourages them to think outside the box, too. Plus it can be done without spending a fortune or an enormous amount of time. The result? Your classroom is, well, classier.
