This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Thank you for considering a donation to our classroom. Throughout the school year, we’ve made the most of a small student desk for our small group instruction. Designed for just two students, this desk has become crowded as we try to fit 4–5 students during these important sessions. Despite our best efforts, the limited space has made it difficult to keep materials organized and create a comfortable learning environment.
Our class would greatly benefit from a kidney-shaped table designed specifically for small group instruction.
This type of table provides ample space for learning materials, gives each student a clear view of the teacher, and allows us to work together more comfortably. Most importantly, it helps create an inviting, stress-free environment where students can feel supported as they revisit concepts they may have found challenging.
Small group time is essential for targeted instruction and deeper learning. With a proper table, we can reduce distractions, increase focus, and make these sessions feel safe, collaborative, and engaging for all. Your support would help us create a space that truly nurtures growth and confidence.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
