My Project

After COVID, our Special Education classroom changed by having to pull students out from four different grades so they can get the extra help and incentive they need to be successful. Students work independently, in small groups, or sometimes 1:1 with the teacher. Other adults come in and are working with individual students. These carrels will help students stay focused by giving them their own workspace and quiet area. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will also help to increase their academic achievement.

Trying to create an environment for learners to stay focused and fully concentrating on the task at hand has been challenging.

These carrels will will help me create a custom space for individual students. Hocus pocus-now they can focus!
