Literature Review
One of the most exciting experiences a teacher can have is to lead a class full of enthusiastic and engaged students. When it comes to having that type of classroom, students are more likely to be engaged and enthusiastic about learning and being in school if they like and respect their teacher. Studies show that when students believe that their peers and teachers like and respect them, they are more likely to achieve academic success (Furrer, Skinner, & Pitzer, n.d.) As seen in Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, of course the first thing that needs to be met for students to even function are the physiological needs. These needs include breathing, shelter, water, food, and sleep.

There are many attachment theories that are influential on teacher-student relationships which originate from mother-child relationships (Cornelius-White, 2007). “… positive teacher–student relationships closely mirror parent–child relationships, enable students to feel safe and secure in their learning environment, provide students with support to cope with demands in the schools, and provide scaffolding for important social and academic skills” (Yang, Bear, & May, 2018). Secure and reciprocal attachments are important for the engagement with teachers and peers to develop a sense of well-being (Cornelius-White, 2007). There are two pertinent functions to the classroom student’s attachment. The first one is that attachment offers a sense of security and the children feel as if they can explore more freely. When children feel as if they are safe or secure in the classroom this balances the need to achieve and explore in their own environment. The second one is the idea of children beginning to bring forth the same types of behaviors and values that their own teachers or parents have (Cornelius-White, 2007). They see these types of behaviors and values every day and that type of attachment is more so, the social learning theory. This theory comes from the positive relationships and attachments that the students have with their teachers. They learn and …show more content…

2.2. It is important to select a number of teaching and learning approaches as individuals can face a number of barriers causing them difficulty to learn. Maslows (1987) Hierarchy of Needs shows that if all five aspects of this theory are met, which are, self actualisation, self esteem recognition, safety/security and physiological it creates a healthy environment for learners to progress and achieve their goal.
Abraham Maslow developed a Hierarchy of Needs (appendix 3) which is used to understand human motivation, management training and personal development. This hierarchy is used to determine the responsibility of employers to provide a workplace environment that encourages and enables employees to fulfil their own unique potential.
Psychologist Abraham H. Maslow is the developer of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. The theory covers human behavior in terms of basic requirements for survival and growth (Cengage, 2002). The theory was developed in the early 1960’s. During this time psychology was taken over by two different views. One side was the human behavior and the other one was the behaviorist. Maslow explained that psychoanalysts had not accomplished the task to consider the behavior of healthy humans. He also mentioned that many subjective experiences that related with human behaviors were being ignored by behaviorist. In the beginning Maslow examined motivations and experience of many healthy individuals. He recognized that there are many requirements in this theory that are important for human survival and to help motivate individuals. He conceptualized different human needs as a pyramid with five levels in
Maslow had created a hierarchy of needs where it is separated in to seven parts, ( physiological needs, safety needs, love and belonging, esteem needs, cognitive needs, aesthetic needs and self actualisation) starting at the bottom with our very basic needs, he believed we do not achieve our full potential without our basic needs met firstly. He applied this theory to children as well and believed if they did not have all of their needs met they would not be able to learn and understand more to their full potential. Even though we cannot attend to every single need of a child in school we try our best to and always ensure them that they have someone to talk to no matter what.
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs (Petty, 2004) theory best describes the needs of people to achieve their best through growth, the need to progress; teachers assist with this therefore ensuring the aforementioned are maintained, valued and practiced by all involved, the teacher will be best placed to develop good relationships with learners and colleagues thus encouraging a more relaxed environment enhancing the whole learning experience.

The attachment theory has helped in initiation of large number of models for social development from childhood till adulthood. Pietromonaco & Feldman Barrett (2000) elaborate on the underlying components and organization of these working models and offer new perspectives that contribute in organizing and sustaining relationship knowledge. They also focus specifically on evaluating the concept of internal working models of attachment.

In alliance with Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, students need positive relationships to be successful in the classroom. It is important for students to feel important and needed in the classroom. Students need to be able to identify and see their purpose needed in the classroom, as well as their purpose as a student. As students identify their purpose in the classroom, they are able to feel supportive in the classroom. This allows for positive bonds to form and for students to become fully engaged in the classroom experience. Teachers have the opportunity to provide students with an inclusive, positive, and enjoyable experience, and failure to do this will cause negative effects on the students socially and academically.
52-53). An increase in student academic engagement and participation in school activities reduces disciplinary problems (Irvin, 1997, p. 52). With these added supports in place, teachers have higher student achievement (Arhar, Johnson & Markle, 1989; Cook & Faulkner, 2010; Haverback & Mee, 2013; Wallace, 2007). Therefore, a new teacher working in a supportive environment will have a more positive experience with more likelihood of remaining in the classroom (Maeroff, 1998; Wheeler-Clouse, 1999; Wilson, 2007).
The purpose of this paper is to explain Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and to explain his describe who and what they are. I will also give a short description of who Maslow was and that things he accomplish while pursuing his educations.

This Hierarchy of Needs theory was found by a psychologist Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper “A Theory of Human Motivation”. The crux of the theory is that individual’s basic needs must be met before they become motivated to achieve higher level needs.’
We are probably all familiar with Abraham Maslow 's Theory of Hierarchical Needs; Psychological Needs, Safety Needs, Belongingness and Love Needs, Esteem Needs, Need to Know and Understand, Aesthetic Needs, and Self-Actualization Needs. And we probably all remember that according to Maslow 's theory, needs that are in the lower hierarchy must be at least partially met before a person will try to satisfy higher-level needs. Although ultimately our goal is to aid students in self-actualizing or becoming "all that one can be," they must first achieve the level of Need to Know and Understand.
