Do you remember sitting in your middle school classroom? Do you remember how awkward and uncomfortable those chairs/desks were? I do. It was horrible. Some days I couldn't concentrate because I was so uncomfortable. My students face these problems every day. We all come in different shapes and sizes and should all feel comfortable in school. Some students are too tall or too short, too heavy or too thin to fit into the desks the school provides. I have had students, on 3 separate occasions, actually fall through the desk because the legs on it gave out. Not only is this dangerous, but it is also very embarrassing for these middle schools kids. I would like to create a "cozy corner" for my students to be able to relax and do their work without any unnecessary distractions. The corner will have comfortable and flexible oversized bean bag chairs, hard storage ottomans to store small group supplies inside, a fun handprint area rug and a mathematics clock. Please help me make their school lives a little more relaxing and comfortable.
