This essay is about classroom environment, what kind of impact it has on pupils’ learning, how to create a good classroom environment and how the style of leadership relates to the classroom environment. This is a qualitative study conducted by four informants. This essay is based on Lev Vygotiskijs perspective of the "sociocultural perspective", which is based on the theory that humans act upon their knowledge and experience, depending on the opportunities that the environment provides. The purpose of this study is to examine how three teachers, who teach younger ages, organize the environment in their classrooms. The goal of this study is to find out what the interviewed teachers perceive as good classroom environment. Also how the environment affects pupils’ learning and what the teachers keep in mind when they furnish their classrooms. Furthermore, to find out how the teachers reason about the relationship between the classroom environment and management style. The results show that the teachers’ experiences and the teachers’ views on the classroom environment did not vary much but I experienced the answers in a similar way. The result also show that all teachers’ are using the term definiteness and that the term should have a central role in teaching but the term humility also should be seen in the teaching.
