A Progressive Classroom

Though each teacher should arrange his/her classroom according to their students’ interests and needs, each progressive classroom should provide the following:

- A democratic, safe environment where students feel understood, appreciated and supported.
- A small student/teacher ration (20 to 24 students per two full-time teachers)
- A physical environment that allows group work
- An area where students could show the product of their work
- Resources for students to use in their projects
