What a classroom looks like in 27 countries around the world?

A classroom is like a room where kids all around the world sit and learn, but it looks very different depending on which country you're in.

Classrooms can be big or small, just like your bedroom might be bigger than your friend’s. In some places, like Japan, there are many students in one class, and they all sit together. In other countries, like Norway, classes might have fewer students, and the rooms are more open and cozy, almost like a living room.

Some classrooms use colors and shapes, just like when you draw with crayons. In Brazil, some classrooms have bright walls and fun patterns, while in Finland, they often look simple and clean, like a calm library.

Kids might wear uniforms or come dressed how they want, like going to the park in different clothes. In South Korea, many kids wear uniforms, but in Canada, it's common for them to wear whatever they like, just like your favorite pajamas on a rainy day.

In Italy, you might hear music or see students dancing during breaks, while in Sweden, the classroom might feel quiet and calm, with kids reading books or working quietly.
