This project will make a difference for everyone in the class. There are always students in the class who fidget constantly and need a break. This standing table would be available to all students and groups. They can work without being pinned down to a desk. Another way this table would make a difference in all my students learning by providing a different way for them to concentrate. One student in particular of mine, is constantly tapping, clapping and drumming on his desk. When I ask him to stand up, he doesn't struggle near as much to concentrate and distracts the kids around him less. This would benefit everyone in many ways.
