In our classroom, students are often given the opportunity to connect with each other with collaboration work inside and outside of the classroom. We often have to move big-2 student-desks around the room to make space or sometimes there is no space to hold their computers or tablets or supplies in their own space, Now, with Covid still at our doors, our classroom does not provide an ample desk for safety or an area for the students to be safely distanced. Having a portable single desk for each student when it is needed will provide safety, support and ease for the students and myself. It will be there when we need it and it can easily be stored when we donʻt.
