Classroom environment is a huge part in students' desire to be in school and be willing to learn. I find that, the more comfortable my students are, the more accessible they are to teach. As a teacher of young learners, it's important to make sure that the students are as accessible as possible so that I can teach them and help them fill in gaps they may have. Students who want to be there are more ready to learn. These amenities will provide students with a comfortable alternative to their traditional seats and desks. With the alternative available, students will begin to change their mindset in the classroom. As the mindset changes, students will become more accessible to their learning. The more accessible students are, the better chance I have to help foster a love for learning!
