Maintaining student focus is a constant struggle for teachers. I have students that have diagnosed attention issues as well as students that struggle to stay awake and focused as a result of poor sleep habits. I propose purchasing a pair of stand-up student desks for my classroom. Having stand-up desks available in my classroom can improve academic performance, physical health, and classroom engagement. Recent studies have suggested that standing while working and learning can increase student productivity and improve academic performance. Many students are kinesthetic learners, which means they learn best through movement. We have also had students that struggle with staying awake during the class period. Sleep deprivation can be caused by various reasons including a lack of supervision at home, homelessness, and insomnia. The traditional classroom is full of sitting desks. By having a pair of stand-up desks, I can give the students the choice to stand while learning/working.
