Our Vision
This is a strategy I learned the hard way. Thinking I was being progressive, I invited
students to "sit wherever you want" on the first day of classes. To my horror, more
than one student was caught in the embarrassing situation of getting shunned or
shooed away from a seat supposedly being saved for o friend. My carelessness had
re-sulted in some students feeling like unwelcomed outsiders. Assigning seats before
the year starts is easy at any grade level.
