Are you wondering why I chose this layout? Yes? Read below for explanations.
The reading center is placed near the windows for natural lighting. I also placed couches in the reading center for the students to be comfortable while reading.
The quiet centers are all on the same side of the room, which is by the windows. The noisier centers are on the opposite side of the room. I divide the centers by sound being produced to prevent distractions.
My desk and small group table are located in the back of the room to prevent distraction while students are doing individual work at their desk.
Students are grouped in groups of four because of cooperative learning.
