My Project

In my first-grade classroom, collaboration and flexible learning environments are key to fostering engagement and academic success. I am requesting funding for a Lakeshore Flex-Space Mobile Group Table to enhance small-group instruction, cooperative learning, and classroom efficiency. This table will provide my young learners with a comfortable and adaptable space where they can work together, engage in hands-on learning, and develop essential social and academic skills.

First grade is a critical time for building foundational skills in reading, writing, and math.

My students thrive in a setting where they can interact, share ideas, and learn collaboratively. However, my current classroom furniture is outdated and not conducive to flexible learning. Traditional desks limit movement and group work, making it difficult to facilitate small-group instruction effectively.

A Lakeshore Flex-Space Mobile Group Table will provide the adaptability needed to meet diverse student needs. With its durable, mobile design, I can easily move and rearrange the table to accommodate different learning activities, whether it’s guided reading groups, STEM projects, or peer collaboration.

Once funded, the table will be ordered immediately and integrated into the classroom within a few weeks. It will be placed in a central location to maximize accessibility for small-group activities. I will use the table during literacy centers, math stations, and collaborative projects to provide students with a dynamic, engaging space for learning.

To assess the impact of the table, I will monitor student engagement, participation in group activities, and overall classroom functionality. I will also collect feedback from students to gauge their comfort and learning experiences.
