Sitting in Small Group Style

Help me give my students a more comfortable seating option in our classroom environment to provide them with a group area that lends itself more easily to collaborative work than a typical student desk.

My Project

As a SETSS and TIER 2 provider, I typically see my students in small groups of approximately 6-10 students at a time. As a result, the traditional student style desks often need to be moved and reorganized in order for me to work with them in a collaborative manner. I currently have 1 kidney table in my classroom with 6 traditional desks on the side.

My students love the 1 kidney table I already have so much that I have to create a rotation of seating arrangements in order for everyone to have a fair turn!

I would love to have an additional kidney table to enable all of my students to always sit at this most preferred area. Please consider making a donation to help all my students in grades K through 5 sit in small group style!
