Title: Moving Seats in a Deskless Clasroom with Dominoes
Body:
From https://lamaestralocablog.wordpress.com
Spanish teacher Annabelle Allen explains why she loves her deskless classroom: students can quickly move for activities, and they are less prone to being distracted by things on or in their desks. In this blog post, she describes how she uses dominoes that she hands out to students at the beginning of class to re-distribute students in their seats as a brain break activity: https://lamaestralocablog.wordpress.com/2017/02/21/deskless-and-seatingchartless-keep-them-moving/
