  Case: Physical Appearance
You are interviewing for a 6th grade math position, and your first task is to describe your classroom's physical appearance. What is the purpose of this question, and how would you answer?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think the purpose of this question is for employers to understand your classroom management strategies and teaching style. This gives you the opportunity to address how you may incorporate cooperative learning in the classroom and whether your teaching style is student-centered or teacher-centered. For example, I would talk about the layout of the student's desks, where students can access materials, where your personal desk will be, etc.
