Our middle school desks are not the most flexible desks out there. The seats are attached to the desk and have oddly shaped baskets underneath. The students often are either too small for the desks or are uncomfortable while sitting in them. The stuff from their baskets also falls out quite often.
My students need the opportunity to focus on their learning and not worry about their comfort or losing their materials.
By providing the students with cubies to store their materials, the students will not have to worry about another student accidentally knocking out their materials from their basket or losing their stuff when desks are moved around. By providing the students with the option of using a pillow, the students may be able to have more back support or be able to get comfortable while learning. When you aren't comfortable that is all your mind is focused on.
