Student Interior Designs: Day 1

For a while now I have wanted to do something with my classroom to make it an inviting learning space for my students.  The problem has always been that I am horrible with interior design as I have always been known as the room with a conglomerate of colors and furniture.  I tend to be the one that hoards furniture.  If I see it in the hallway on the way to the dump, it usually ends up in my room.   One day I finally put it out there and asked the art teachers if they knew of any students who would like to reinvent my classroom.  The next day, 7 students showed up ready to get started.  After brainstorming ideas and telling them what I was thinking along with the budget they could work with, they got to work.
