Privacy Desk for Diverse Classroom

Help me give my students a desk that allows them to learn with less distractions. This desk allows them to have boundaries and personal space so that they can focus on their work.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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 Students

My students are creative, energetic, and love coming to school. They love hands-on, active, engaging projects that allow them to show what they can achieve. They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!

My students crave for individualized areas that allow them to learn based on their learning style.

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!

My Project

Privacy desks allows a student to learn on their individual level. It allows them to focus on the work on their desk versus the items or peers in the classroom. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given boundaries around their desk that allow them to feel more safe and comfortable while they work at their own pace.

My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a more private area to work in.

The product that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional privacy options to make more effective learning choices. The desks are adjustable and they will allow them to sit or stand.

I have seen how privacy can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow.
