Students have to be taught to work in groups and collaborate on ideas. It is important to organize the classroom environment in such a way that facilitates this collaboration with ease and efficiency. Single student desks encourages isolation. Whereas group tables encourages collaboration. My students would benefit from rectangle activity tables to make collaboration easier and more efficient. Students would be able to do group work in an environment that supports it. My goal is to transform my classroom into one where students feel comfortable sharing and defending their ideas to their peer group as this is a skill that will benefit them throughout their lives.
