Room details and site checks
- Layout
- Keep a clear teaching wall and arrange desks so students can turn into small groups without blocking the route.
- Detail
- Use glare-controlled board lighting, durable desk edges, and accessible storage for shared supplies.

- Reconfigure from rows to groups
- Check teacher sightlines from seated positions
