Some of the most popular classroom layouts include:

The runway layout is when two groups of students face each other with a large open area in the middle. This is the most popular layout when setting up for a debate. Or the teacher can use the open space when preparing a demonstration for students.

4. Circle
Round Table layouts are where all students face each other in a circle. This layout is great for promoting inclusivity because all students feel like their voices have equal contribution in the conversation.

5. Traditional
The traditional classroom layout has desks in rows facing forward grouped into rows and columns. This layout gives teachers ample space to move in between rows and give scholars the individualized instruction they require. While it used to be the main way classrooms were arranged, now it is mainly used for independent study, direct instruction, and testing.
