Overcrowded Classroom: Problems Created by Overcrowded Classrooms

Overcrowded classrooms create several problems for teachers and students. When class sizes exceed 20 students, it becomes difficult for teachers to give individual attention to students and classroom discipline issues increase. Struggling students fall further behind in overcrowded classrooms due to increased noise levels and lack of access to resources. School districts try to address overcrowding through measures like ability grouping, providing teacher aides, and obtaining more funding, while teachers must create engaging lessons, tutor students after school, and carefully assign seats to manage large class sizes.
