Classroom U-Shaped Desk Arrangement

A U-shaped classroom desk arrangement helps students see one another as well as the teacher. The open center supports demonstrations, role play and short presentations without moving furniture. Start with the whiteboard wall and teacher desk, then place desks along three sides while preserving an accessible route from the door. A resource shelf can sit on the fourth side without interrupting sightlines. This configuration suits seminars, language practice and debate. It is less useful for individual testing, where forward-facing rows are usually a better fit. Draw the room first so the desk count and circulation are realistic.
