Help me give my students a height adjustable chair so I can use this chair to work with different students in different centers in the classroom with various table heights.
I have nine students, who are K-first graders. Our school is a specialty school designed to be a therapeutic whole experience for a range of disabilities. Academics is a strong focus in our setting, and our students work very hard on all four subjects each day.
These students are artists, singers, and dancers, and love to participate in gym, art, and science!
Our school is located in an urban setting within Chicago Public Schools. Eighty percent of my students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
My Project
Given the use of an extra monitor and desk chair, while teaching remotely for myself, will aide in productivity now while online for 3 hours a day with my students. When we get back to the classroom, the height adjustable chair will be used to move throughout different areas of the classroom to work with students at different tables that have different sizes. When we return to the classroom, the extra monitor will provide the opportunity to teach using more visuals for students. Learning is difficult as it is in, in person, now given remote learning, students will require as much in-person teaching with visuals to capture their attention and keep it. While we are hoping to have the use of two monitors, it will also allow for closer supervision of each student while sharing another screen to make sure they are doing what they are supposed to be.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
