Moving Desks Four In – We will be doing work in groups so students need to move their desks facing each other in their groups of four. Four Facing – When students are in groups they move their desks back to facing the front. There are pieces of tape on the floor to indicate where the desks need to go. Clear Out- Students will move desks to the outer edges of the room.

Passing Paper When passing papers I will papers on the left side of the class. Please pass the papers to the right. When turning in papers please pass to the left toward the windows. If it is class work students at the end of the rows will put them into the correct Core folders
