Unlock Student Potential Through Strategic Seating

DESCRIPTION:

Struggling to create a seating plan that fosters engagement and maximises student learning? You're not alone! In this episode, Tem dives into the world of strategic seating, exploring how to arrange your classroom to boost student engagement, cater to different learners by accommodating various learning styles and needs ensuring every student thrives, minimise disruptions in order to maintain a positive learning environment, and unlock student potential.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• When creating a seating, arrange your students with special educational needs first.
• Gauge your students' personalities quickly so that you can alter your seating plan if needs be to sit them more strategically.
• Don't change your seating plan too often. Certain students will disrupt knowing that you will change your seating plan just so that they get moved.
• Higher attaining students can be seated next to one another or next to lower attaining students to support them in lessons.

BEST MOMENTS:

"You relinquish the control of your classroom to your students"

"Don't be scared to change your seating plan"

"It is important to listen to our students"
