My Students

My students are working around the obstacles of the pandemic limitations and are improving their background math skills to better understand their grade-level math and get prepared for Algebra. They are hard-working and motivated!

My students love to collaborate and help each other but also work independently.

My Project

Students want to be in school and while they are in school, I want them to be comfortable. Sit to stand desks allow students a choice for their growing bodies and minds. These desks are a great size so students may collaborate while social distancing.

A sit-to-stand desk that easily converts from one position to another allows students to move and adjust throughout the class period.

Individual sit-to-stand desks also allow students to easily transition from independent work to collaboration with a partner or group encouraging a more rich learning experience.
