Campfire  

•  “Campfires”  are  a  way  to  learn  from  experts  or  storytellers.  –  TradiAonal  Classroom  –  Space  for  presenter  

•  In  clear  line  of  sight  •  Ability  to  be  heard  •  Ability  to  project  or  show  visuals  

–  Space  for  students  •  Able  to  see  presenter  •  Ability  to  hear  presenter  •  Ability  to  see  visuals

Cave  

•  “Caves”  are  an  area  for  focused  learning  •  Provides  opportuniAes  for  individual  study,  reflecAon,  quiet  readying  and  creaAve  flow  

•  Should  include  a  variety  of  “nooks”  and  “crannies”  to  suit  different  needs.  –  Students  like  anchors  in  their  caves:  

•  Against  walls  •  Against  heavy  furniture  •  Comfortable  furniture  •  Could  even  be  under  a  table  for  younger  children

Learning  Environment  Flexibility  

•  Will  I  need  to  combine  different  types  of  learning  at  the  same  Ame?  

•  How  will  this  look?

Learning  Environment    Flexibility  

•  Teacher  providing  direct  instrucAon  

•  Students  watching  video  and  taking  notes  

MulAple  groups  meeAng  together:  •  Share  project  ideas  •  Give  feedback  to  each  

other  

•  Small  groups  meeAng  together  to  work  on  projects
