My Project

Privacy shields are the perfect way to focus in a classroom setting. Whether it is for taking a test, Classwork or reading, having people all around you is a big distraction. Why fight the urge to look around? With a privacy shield, my students finish their work faster. When I found some students putting up their work folders to block other classmates from seeing their work, I figured why not get privacy shields which are bigger and block more. They fold flat and can be stored so easily, too. Any help will be appreciated!
