September is the beginning of school for every student of any age. It’s practical to create the study nook in time just like to purchase the required tools.
The two of the most important furniture are the desk and the chair. Adult size furniture should be bought for a school-beginner six-years-old kid also, since we have to plan for a long term. The comfortable height of a desk is between 70 and 73 cm. Make sure that it is stable and there is enough free space on the top of the desk for learning – this means at least 55-60 cm depth. If there is superstructure, its size should be added to the depth. The top of the desk shouldn’t be transparent because it disturbs the concentration. Since nowadays the computer is an integral part of learning, in the case of a desk PC there should be separated place for the computer, the monitor and the keyboard also.
The desk should be placed to get proper natural lighting, namely near the window, perpendicular to it as far as possible, for the outer world doesn’t attract the student’s eyes. Table lamp is an essential accessory. As to the lighting, it has to be considered that the light should arrive from the left in the case of a right-handed and from the right in the case of a left-handed pupil.
The ideal work chair is height-adjustable, both the seat and the back is upholstered, it has arms and castors as far as possible for it being comfortable and ergonomic as much as it can be.
The study area needs a cabinet with shelves and storage with drawers for writing materials and other tools. If the room has wooden floor, a smaller carpet should be placed under the chair because it provides more comfortable feeling for the feet.
