Enclosed below is a video of Teacher, Kathy Cassidy's classroom. There are some great incites on reading activities, writing activities, classroom organization, structure, behavior management, sharing space, and scheduling. I believe this site would benefit teachers who are new to the field and for those seeking new ideas. According to the my text students can part take in making rules as well as leading the class with the teacher's help. We noticed here in the video that the students are heavily involved in the classroom which makes the experience much more real than the teacher speaking. Seen here are students using activities to facilitate their learning, for example using dinosaur to subtract. To implement some of these ideas in your classroom, please feel free to take a look at the site below.
