Mrs. Hindman from Forest MS is requesting reading nooks, desks & storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
My students need tables for our classroom. These tables will allow my students to collaborate,and will allow for more walking room in my room.

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.
My students are creative, clever and very spontaneous.
They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single parent households and ALL receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical". From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives, however, I can certainly control their experience during the school day. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hopeful to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
Currently our tiny room is crammed with broken, mismatched desks that take up 90% of our classroom.
My students and I barely have enough room to walk around or do group and center work.These 5 tables will help maximize our classroom space and will also allow our students to collaborate and help make our group and center work easier.
I want to be able to give my students an environment where they are encouraged to learn, not crammed in broken desks.
