classroom isn't the place for sleeping, but some headteachers in the USA want students to sleep at school. There are even special “sleep pods” at
these schools, and students nap in them.
Doctors recommend 9-10 hours of sleep a day for teenagers. However, the average teenager rarely sleeps 9-10 hours. It isn't always because they
are on social media until late at night. Their biological clock controls their sleep habits, and that's different from student to student. So teenagers
sometimes go to bed at 1.00 am, and they get up at 6.45 in the morning. They are always tired, and this affects their learning.
Sleep pods are a great solution to this problem. After 20 minutes in the sleep pods, students focus on their schoolwork and they understand their lessons. Sleep
