SIT or STAND to Learn
Funded Sep 1, 2019
I am so thankful for your support of my classroom. The standing desks have had a huge impact on my classroom. The day the desks arrived my students were beyond happy.
There was a standing ovation for our custodian who brought in the 4 huge boxes (and of course I was leading the celebration).
Students enjoy being able to have flexible seating while at school. We love that we can use them to easily collaborate for group projects and move them around the room to work where we are comfortable. Without your incredible donations we would not have such a productive classroom. Again, thank you for your support of my classroom and for understanding the needs of my children!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Biggs

Adults have the opportunity to move about their day as they wish. I believe that students should have the same flexibility. These desks will allow students to have the opportunity to sit or stand during instruction or while completing independent work. If adults were asked to sit still for 7 hours a day we would go bananas, so why should we expect children to be any different? I plan to use these desks as an alternative seating area. Students will still be able to sit at their regular desks, but use these desks to help when they are unfocused or need a change of atmosphere. These desks will be placed around the classroom with the intention of the student taking ownership for their own learning. They will have an option to sit on a yoga ball (already purchased) at the desk or simply stand and work. Students need options in their daily academic lives and these desks will make those options possible. I can't wait to see how this alternative seating can change the classroom dynamic in positive way.
