For years, Dinah Carpenter's fourth-grade classroom at Overton Elementary School was a playground for the imagination.

Every corner of the room was filled with books, posters, photos, poems and trinkets to draw students in.

"I want the room to be warm and inviting because I always tell them this is where you are going to be, this is your room," Carpenter said. "It's very important that they have a good feeling when they walk in my room."
