My Project

I am an Intensive Learning Support teacher at the supplemental level. My class is a family who supports each other, strive everyday to be their personal best, and work diligently toward their unique learning goals. In an effort to give them a designated space for small group instruction, I would love to gift them a kidney bean table work station.

What's a kidney bean table, you ask?

It's not just any ordinary table; it's a versatile and interactive workspace designed to facilitate collaborative learning experiences. Picture this: small groups of students gathered around the kidney bean table, engaged in hands-on activities, discussions, and problem-solving tasks. With its curved shape, this table promotes communication and teamwork, making it perfect for my intensive support groups.

Why a kidney bean table specifically? Well, its design encourages inclusivity and participation. Students of all abilities can comfortably sit around it, fostering a sense of belonging and cooperation. For my students who benefit from extra support, having a designated space that promotes interaction and engagement is invaluable.

By supporting this project, you'll directly contribute to creating an environment where every student feels empowered and valued. Your generosity will help us enhance our classroom's learning landscape, turning it into a hub of collaboration and growth.

Thank you for considering supporting our quest for a kidney bean table, stools and dry erase circles. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of these amazing students!
