My Project

At 6 and 7 years-old it's hard to keep students focused and motivated to learn while sitting at their desk all day. For some students their desk is not the most optimum place to do their work. They need the freedom to choose where they can find their success in learning.

The surf desks will give them the opportunity to move and collaborate with others.

Along with the surf desks, the SEL books will help my students feel comfortable and confident working with other students anywhere in the classroom. We also need storage for our seating and hundreds storage charts.
