For all 7 years that I have been teaching, I have worked from a traditional desk, everything I do is behind my desk. Well, after researching and beginning this blogging and classroom transformation, I have seen many teachers who have not taken that mindset. So, this year I am a teacher who is not confined to a desk. I threw it out !!! (not really, just moved it to the hall :)) and I replaced it with a bookshelf for my stuff and a kidney shaped table. I love the table, I can just envision sitting with 2 students on the opposite side working diligently to help them understand a concept. I will be a teacher who is constantly mingling amongst my students. This is a big step for me! But this will be a small thing that will make me a better teacher.

We don't have any desks in our building, we all use our kidney tables! It works great :) You'll love it!
