My Project

This outdoor table will provide an area where students can thrive and learn outside of the regular classroom environment.

The outdoor learning space is vital to giving teachers and student an outlet to sit and improve student engagement, focus, and creativity.

It provides a natural environment that encourages hands-on learning, reduces stress, and allows for diverse learning styles, while also promoting environmental awareness and physical activity through exposure to the outdoors.

In addition to outdoor learning, exposure to fresh air and natural surroundings can positively impact mental health. It will engage multiple senses, enhancing learning through sight, sound, touch, and smell.

As the average child spends about five to seven hours using technology daily, outdoor classrooms for schools help mitigate the effects of too much screen time.

Textbooks and paper are still valuable in an outdoor classroom, and students will need to put these items on a table. After class, teachers can convert tabletops into outdoor eating areas for lunches and breaks
