How many times have you fallen asleep in a boring Math class? How many people do you know that simply hate Math, because they had a horrible Math teacher? By middle school, students have already made up in their minds that they do not like math. Fortunately, I have a group of students that have a love for math that I cannot possibly take away! So, here I am, making the adjustments needed to support the new needs of my new students. My students love to get out of their seats, and move around the classroom. In an effort to minimize restrictions on movement in my classroom, I have given my students choice and voice in what they do and how they do it. Students' learning is personalized just for them, and I want them to have that same freedom when choosing a work station. I want to give students the option to stand while doing work, and clipboards are not doing the job anymore. I have chosen to create this project to fund four standing desks so I can create a group for students who prefer to stand in the classroom. This project will give them something different than the standard classroom appearance. It will offer them a sense of comfort that they cannot get anywhere else, other than their MATH CLASS!
