Flexible Learning

Funded Sep 23, 2019

My students are LOVING the stand up desk in my classroom. When I first put it together, so many students asked to be able to use it. There are about 5 students in particular who are completely attached to it and use it every day. They enjoy being able to stand up without being reprimanded and have the chance to stretch their muscles that have been cramped in other classes. The desk is also in the back of the room, so the students can roam or pace when they feel it necessary.

In geometry, the students really enjoy having a space for multiple students to crowd around and discuss the problems. They have the space to move around, put multiple pages or books on the same table, and are able to collaborate easily without bulky furniture in the way.

My students and I would love to have more stand up desks in the classroom. My goal is to have two more standing desks, as well as 3 to 4 other alternative seating options by the start of the next school year.

Thank you so much for your generosity! It is appreciated by many.”
