My Project

My students love to make things! That's the core work we do in our K-8 multidisciplinary STEM makerspace at our school. Students engage in engineering design processes to brainstorm, plan, prototype, test, iterate on, and share meaningful artifacts.

We need furniture ( Write & Wipe Mobile Rectangular Tables) that allows for flexibility and collaboration.

Imagine working and learning in a space with movable tables that you can write on with a team! That's what we want to add to our makerspace.

Our space is used for robotics, coding, and other engineering activities. We have lots of tables but these new tables will support students in working on teams to share ideas as they write on the tables with dry erase markers. Then, they can flip the tables up for presentations.
