A kidney table will enable my children to build confidence in their abilities through collaboration via small group instruction. It will provide a comfortable environment while encouraging teamwork as I will be able to customize and differentiate instruction based on their academic needs. Kidney tables encourage social behavior, creativity, and cooperation among students. This table will allow me to be within an arm's reach of each student. The children will be more focused which will enable them to make greater strides in achieving the literacy and mathematical skills that they are lacking. This table will allow my students to continue to shine.
