Using IG makes those first few days of school very easy. I often walk into a classroom and become disgusted with the layout of the classroom. Often, I see too much individual work or too much group work. The key is to make your groups individualized, but your individuals into groups. Take a look at these pictures below, and let’s see what you think.
A. Well organized classrooms. This is what my classroom looks like! (A “Book Smart” teacher)
B. What was this teacher thinking? They must have just started teaching. (A “Street Smart” teacher)
If you chose A, you need to go back and read my first post. You are not ready for the IG classroom experience. If you chose B, you are ready for the next step!
Amazing idea! But this would work well if the each row had students having different ideologies and intellectual capabilities .
