What does your classroom atmosphere look like?
A classroom atmosphere is imperative for learning. Share with the interviewer how you have your class organized. This way, they can catch the vision of how you would organize your classroom.
"In my classroom, I want learning all around. On one wall, I have different musical instrument posters. On the ceiling, I like to put the treble and bass clef with different notes to enhance learning. Putting things all over the place keeps students' attention on music."

I build a safe classroom environment. We come into our special spot and start with hello songs and solfeggio with rhythm. Then we get our books and come to the circle for our lesson. Then we put books away for a game that we usually have.

It's great that you strive to make your classrooms safe. How exactly do you ensure your students' safety? Do you make them feel both emotionally and physically safe? Do you also try to make your classroom fun and engaging? How? Really give the interviewer an idea of the type of classroom atmosphere you create and how this benefits the students so they can envision you doing it at their school. Good job!
