Ms. Boggs’ Classroom Edit display name

https://www.donorschoose.org/classroom/6121462 Customize URL

Throughout the day I teach writing, math, and science to two energetic and fun fifth grade classes (about 50 students total). Our classroom is on the smaller side and is filled with many traditional desks, which can make our space feel cluttered. Every day I have students who choose to stand up behind their desks throughout class, but I've noticed its harder for them to write and pay attention when they constantly have to look down to take notes and write. It is my hope to implement more flexible seating opportunities in my classroom, starting with stand up desks! Stand up desks would to provide my students with a more streamlined opportunity for engagement and learning without compromising their posture. On a side note, these desks would help reduce the number of traditional desks/seats stored in the classroom which would reduce clutter and allow for more space for centers and other hands-on areas to be created.
