GROUP INSTRUCTION AREA

A place is assigned to each student and the rules of work and conduct expected in this area are explained.
DESK SETTING
 
The desks are set up in groups so that students can work and reflect on what they have learned together, encouraging oral expression.
 
Placement is according to the needs of the students.
