“There is no better example of the throttling of creativity than the difference between what we observe in a kindergarten classroom and what we observe in a high school classroom.

“65% of class should be student-to-student interaction….research has proven that communication is vital to student learning. Knowing that this is true, classrooms should be arranged in groups of four and not in rows.”

the outside circle move one or more peers to their right or
left.
