Normal Classroom Setting课室环境

Observation 1
In a normal classroom setting, the classroom has an average 30 pupils. In fact, there is still sufficient space for teachers to sit in for lesson observations. There are additional desks/chairs placed in the classroom for this purpose. In this particular classroom, there are over 10 additional stools placed at the back of the classroom. While that do not take up much space, it is convenient for a good number of teachers to come into the class to observe lessons. I believe, such arrangement definitely promotes the culture of sharing and peer observation.
Observation 2
Metal storage cabinets for every pupil in the classroom - a standard feature in all classrooms. In this way, students do not have to move to the lockers (in our case, situated outside their classrooms, and may not be even on the same level/block) to take materials that they require, thereby cutting down movement time. Within the classroom, when everything is kept in their storage cabinets, the room is seen to be neat and tidy.

  1. Wow, such a class size, is this a 实验班 or all classes the same?
