When students see or visit a library, they think of comfort, home, or being at peace. I am constantly having students coming to the library in the morning, during lunch or after school to read and get away and I feel bad when they don’t have comfortable seating on the floor or anywhere in the library. This is also great for special need students who hate being at those high tables! When I love to read aloud to students, I dislike when I see some of my students squirmy and uncomfortable. I believe in reading corners/nooks and creating these welcoming environments for students, which is why I absolutely love this new, trendy, STEM learning furniture!
