I teach 5 classes a day averaging 32 students per class. My classroom is located in the seventh-grade hall near the exterior doors that lead outside to the gym. Because of the small classroom size students sit in 4 rows of 8 with each sharing a table with a space between every two tables so I can have better mobility when moving around the room to help students.

Students are given a composition notebook to keep all their notes and “do nows†that are checked every few weeks for accuracy. Students have access to textbooks that have their names written on the side and can be written in however, due to the large size of the books they are left at school the majority of the time.
