If you get rid of the giant shelves and get some low shelves you can put your library under your whiteboard. Just an idea.

Yess! I love that idea! I’m looking on FB marketplace for some cheap ones 😂

I definitely like your sisters idea of using the cubbies as the library or you getting lower shelves. I’m guessing the part between the two cubbies is for backpacks? You could get pillows and kids could sit on the floor there to read. Maybe put curriculum in the top cubbies. Also, I would think about getting rid of your teacher desk and just using your small group table. Just make sure you have storage behind you. I always like to be in the back of the classroom bc you can see what students are doing on computers. It definitely doesn’t impact behavior. I also recommend trying to do groups. You may have to keep some desk like you have them to make sure everyone can see but that will help with space too! Definitely get rid of anything you can that you don’t need.

Two suggestions, you have huge student desks so it may give you more space placing them in groups of 4 facing each other. The 2nd suggestion is to see if you can trade out the massive teacher desk that takes up too much space. I haven’t finished the video yet but that’s what I see so far.
