Our school places a focus on peer collaboration and interaction amongst students. We believe in readying our students for the progressive future ahead. Interacting with others in a collaborative way is a part of this preparation. What makes this task challenging is the current state of our desks. It becomes difficult for students to stay on task when they are uncomfortable with their seating. Funding from this project will go towards receiving new octagon shaped desks and attachable metal book boxes that are the appropriate height for my students' age group. The shape of the desks helps to arrange students more comfortably within a classroom setting and promote peer collaboration in groups and partnerships. These desks will be used daily by students to help master the skills of creating projects, conduct group discussions, and work hands-on through the project-based approach. This project will serve a dual function, and for many generations of students to come. Not only will the students I currently work will with benefit from the fruits of this project but the classes I hope to serve throughout my career will as well.
