I am desperate to upgrade my current, broken seating system and provide updated and more adult-like working areas for my students. The metal bar stools are modern and will give my students an unusual seating option for small group activities at a taller table. The comfy saucer chairs will be used for independent work in a more comfortable setting with clipboards. When students are comfortable in their environment and their teacher, they will show greater effort and more growth than in the uninviting, sterile boxes from yesterday. I hope that they find our classroom to be a refuge, a safe place free of judgment where they are comfortable making mistakes so that I can turn their learning around and make them more successful in the regular classroom where they leave. It could all start with a comfy chair.
