I have a VERY small classroom with a relatively extensive library and a large, old oak "teacher" desk that gets piled with everything and is never used as the work space I envision it to be at the start of the year. Each year I consider changing it out for a table but then I think that the table will get covered with the same pile of unfiled papers, etc. so what would I accomplish. I do let my students sit at "my" desk which they initially get a kick out of.
For those of you who changed out to a table (and I am not a kidney-shape table person either. I meet for reading sitting on the floor.) how/why was the table an improvement over the desk?
