This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
As a teacher, it is important to find ways to enhance the learning environment for all of our learners! A kidney table encourages social behavior, creativity and cooperation! The table allows students and myself to sit close to one another, making it an ideal table for small-group learning.
Students have a variety of different learning needs and do not all learn the same way.
That is why small-group instruction is so important to incorporate into my daily lesson plans. My students are currently sitting on the floor with me during our small groups. With a class size of 27 students, we do not have a big enough table to sit at comfortably during these small groups. My students have worked so hard this year and deserve a comfortable and engaging table to sit at during these groups. It is important to sit in close proximity and be able to hear and see everyone during these lessons. A kidney table is perfect for that!
