Collaboration in the Science Classroom

Help me give my students I have new tables in my cart to encourage collaboration among students and so that I no longer have broken tables. I also listed glue sticks since I am out of glue.

My Project

Having new tables in my science classroom will give my students a better environment and seating arrangement to collaborate. Students will also have sturdy tables to perform labs, which will enhance their learning experience. In addition to having new, functioning tables in my classroom, glue sticks would also help students stay organized and neatly keep interactive notebook pages in their science journals.

For this project, my goal is to create a safe and exciting learning environment for my students that enhances collaboration among peers.

Having tables that are not breaking will create a safe and steady surface to perform laboratory experiments. In addition, these tables would allow for a better use of space for students to work together and collaborate when coming across new phenomena.

The group of students that I have had the pleasure of teaching this year is awesome. They enjoy coming to science class every day and look forward to the new things we learn. Having room for them to sit comfortably at a functioning table would enhance their learning experience and help them enjoy the class even more. This group of kids has helped me realize this is what I'm meant to do, and I want to help them in any way I can.
