My students are very excited to learn. They love to work hard, but at times the noises from the chairs distracts them. The small unstable table is not so conducive for a works space, and having children stand to hold up a big book or using a small white board to display messages is not as inviting as an easel with white boards and storage. Our school is a very welcoming place, and our students don't have much, but they make do with what they have and never complain. I would love to see them with these materials because it will give them a little something to smile about.
