Abstract
This inquiry project is about the classroom environment related to spacial organization, group work, transition time, and behavior management. The problem observed was that much of the school day was lost during transitions between language arts and mathematics, as well as many students were demonstrating off-task behavior. The project looks at data from behavior monitoring and transition times in an attempt to make the school day more efficient. By researching and implementing changes to the spacial, organizational, and group dynamics the time lost between transitions, as well as the occurrence off task behavior was reduced.
