[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do two classrooms not have doors? I can't even picture that? Its must be so noisy. [/quote] I grew up going to what was called an "open space" elementary school. It was one huge area per grade, blocked off with bookshelves and filing cabinets. No doors anywhere. When I drive by that school in my hometown, I often wonder what it's like on the inside now. I can't imagine anything like that as a school now.[/quote] +1. Chevy Chase Elementary School was like this when I was there in the 80s.[/quote] I was at an open space school in the 1970s/early 80s. The idea was that the space could be reconfigured for all sorts of cool activities between disciplines and grade levels. Only, it never happened. However, the worse fight I saw in ES took place in the six square feet not blocked off by bookshelves and during it, a student threw a chair at another student and barely missed a teacher and some other kids.[/quote]
