Class without chairs

I'm going to teach my fidgety students in a room without chairs tomorrow, since they find it so hard to sit still and learn better standing up. I'm curious about how that'll work out - all of them said that when they study at home, they don't do so at their desk but while walking about. I'm curious as to whether this will be applicable to larger groups, too - I know for a fact that part of the reason why some of these kids stop being able to concentrate at some point is because they simply can't sit any longer, and I don't see a disadvantage to having them walk about the room while teaching or have them stand while writing as long as they pay attention. My reading backs this up, too. Should be interesting.

Also, I'm having a lot of fun in the Groups on DA right now, and my day was made when I discovered the picture below, drawn by ~nattherat, the best Worst Witch artist on that site.

 

Not only does she manage to capture the style of the books perfectly, she's also a fan of Ms Hardbroom AND Drill/Hardbroom.
My day is made.
