One afternoon last week a male student stretched out during the 10 minute break and fell asleep. I didn't bother to wake him up when the lesson resumed. I was so impressed. Imagine a row of airline seats with arm rests that don't lift up and the tray tops all down. Now, imagine those same seats made of wood. That is a pretty accurate description of the desks in the classrooms. Well, maybe there is more room between the desks and seats in the classrooms than the tray tops and seats on a plane. In any case, relatively tight and very uncomfortable. A student was actually lying down across 2 or 3 seats with his body under the arm rests! If he managed to get into that position then he deserved the nap!
