Classroom Arrangement

A classroom should be cozy, welcoming, and full of color. As you walk into your classroom it is a blank canvas. Looking at www.priceless-teaching-strategies.com/classroom_layout.html there are 8 questions that you should consider when you begin to setup your classroom:
1. Where will your desk be?
2. How many student classroom desks do you need?
3. What classroom seating arrangement of the desks will you use; for example,
groups,rows, U shapes, rows but in groups,etc?
4. Will you have any classroom computers? Where will you put the classroom
computer tables?
5. Will you have a carpeted area, away from the students' desks, where you can
all come together for classroom meetings,etc.?
6. What other additional classroom furniture such as filing cabinets,
bookshelves,working tables will there be?
7. How many classroom bulletin boards will you have?
8. What other classroom display ideas are swimming around in your head?
As there are many more questions that can come to mind these are just a few to begin with.
