My Project

Please help me give my students foldable tables and moveable chairs so we can have a collaborative classroom. The current desks in my room are falling apart. The desks are also really heavy to move and the seat is attached so working in groups is a challenge.

I would like foldable tables so students will be able to work together in our science labs.

I am envisioning the students doing the lab prep on the tables and then folding the tables away so the whole classroom is open. We have a lot of projects that involve an object moving so we can measure the dependent variable. Being able to keep the projects in my room instead of the hallway would allow my classes to not distract others. I would also have a cleaner classroom floor because the desks are cumbersome to move around.
