Tables and Chairs for a More Equitable and Inclusive Environment
Funded Sep 7, 2024My students and I need to wish you all a great debt of thanks for helping us achieve the task of getting new tables and chairs for my classroom! The impact has been incredible in so many ways, including and most importantly the ability to collaborate in such a meaningful environment. We strive to allow creativity in most of the work we do and having these tables helps in so many ways. From spreading out to create posters to doing group assignments like building structures using the large space and stable structure to build on. However, for me, the ability to change my classroom environment is the biggest boon to my world. In order to do socratic seminars you need a specific configuration that i can now create. In order to do my courtroom simulation, I can now adjust the tables to look like a courtroom, and on and on. It really has revolutionized my world. Finally I need to thank you on behalf of my students who needed a different set up for accessibility. The day I set up my Donors Choose project, a student who had just broken her leg in 3 places, hobbled in needing not only a way to put her leg up during class but also another chair for support and a free space under her for her other leg. The old desk/chair did not would work for her and we had to coe up with a whole new way for her to be in class. I knew that once my tables and chairs showed up, i would no longer have to figure out these problems. For all these reasons and many more, i say thank you, again, from the bottom of my heart.”
