[quote=Anonymous]Not a teacher and not really familiar with the latest in elementary education best practices, but would any teachers reading this thread be willing to either link to some research or post a short explanation regarding why the desk groups/tables configuration is beneficial? I'm sure there's a reason it's used since this seems to be the current seating trend in most classrooms, I'm just a bit surprised that it is better than having the kids seated in rows and I would be interested to learn why this is. I would have thought rows would make it easier for students to focus and avoid talking out of turn while simultaneously helping teachers maximize space in their classrooms.[/quote]
