I'm meeting with an architect next week and she wants to know what my groupings will be for each classroom. I'm trying to create a calm environment that isn't too full, fulfills DCFS requirements but is profitable.
How do these groups sound?
First floor - 0-18 mos, 8 children & 2 teachers
First or second floor - 18-36 mos, 10 children & 2 teachers
Second floor - 3-4 year olds, 10 children 1.5 teachers
Second or third floor, 4-5 year olds, 10 children & 1.5 teachers
I'm not sure of the layout yet but wanted to hear thoughts about children being in second and third floors. Each room will be approx 500-600 sq ft and I could probably get a couple of extra kids in each room but then I would need an extra teacher so I'm not sure it's worth it.
Would you group differently?
