My students are more relaxed and able to concentrate on their work. We have had many positive reactions to our room and the seating you provided. The students love getting to work when they are not trapped in a traditional desk. Recently, the students wrote stories in English to share and we had a wonderful time reading them allowed to one another in our sharing corner. \r\nMy biggest problem now is keeping students that are not in my class out! Many of my students prefer to spend their free period in my room because of the comfortable surroundings and homey feeling they experience in my room. We now share a very family feeling in this space and it helps us to learn better together.
