Privacy to Show Proficiency

My students need privacy partitions to use in computer lab and at tables during testing.

My Students

I am a general education teacher for a large kindergarten class of thirty students. Some of my students have special needs, some are also English Language learners. As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, that is also operating with strict budget, 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 a safe, creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My Project

My students use tables to work at. During testing it’s hard to “keep eyes on own paper” at this age.

I want my students to be able to show me what they know without worrying someone will look at what they are doing.

Abilities vary greatly at this age and I want to be able to see what they know and adjust my plans according to what each student needs. But in order to do this- I need to first have them be able to test and show me what they know without looking at others papers. Please donate to this projectfor privacy shields and help my students work and have privacy.
