My Project

I am creating a modern day learning environment for my students. My students will no longer walk into a traditional classroom. They will walk in what I call "The Classroom Cafe of Learning."

I am setting up my classroom like a cafe with a tea and coffee area.

My students will have the option to drink tea or coffee while learning in the classroom. The classroom setting will be changed into a nice cafe setting with pub tables and bar stools for the students to sit in besides the regular student desk. What better way for the kids to enjoy the setting and fulfill their thirst with a cup of tea or coffee!
