My Project
My class is full of 16 students who are all very ambitious and eager to learn! From my perspective, they benefit most from group activities and collaborative learning. The social interaction allows for them to not only learn from the lesson, but learn with one another. They can discuss their different levels of thinking and bounce ideas off one another.
Using tables as opposed to desks will not only improve the workflow and focus of my students, but also allows me to focus on one group at a time.
The tables would allow me to walk around the classroom and assist each group as needed with ease. Having the tables would increase collaboration and teamwork between my students. I have a plan to help them stay organized even though they no longer have a desk to put things in. Overall, my classroom will be much more organized on a day to day basis with less cleanup needed at the end of the day. The students will have more places for flexible seating around the classroom, and doesn't restrict them to one place to sit for the entire year.
My goal with this change is to help the students become more independent with their organization and improve collaboration and teamwork with one another.
