These tables have transformed our classroom into a more collaborative and flexible learning environment. Students now have more opportunities to work together during writing, use hands-on math manipulatives, and I am able to give more frequent feedback throughout their learning. These changes have increased student interest and engagement while creating more space for both students and staff to move comfortably around the classroom.\r\n\r\nThe addition of these four tables has also made a significant difference during our intervention times. We now have space to host an additional small group during reading intervention and accommodate two math groups during math intervention, allowing us to better meet students' individual learning needs.\r\n\r\nFor the first time in my teaching career in this district, I have been able to implement a more flexible seating approach in my classroom, and students have adapted wonderfully to having different learning zones and seating options throughout the day. I am excited to welcome my students each morning knowing that these resources are helping us build stronger relationships, encourage peer collaboration, and create a classroom where students can learn and grow together.","fullyFundedDate":1786367038499,"projectUrl":"project/collaboration-tables/10349918/","projectTitle":"Collaboration Tables","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Magusin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8070932"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_73553","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":458,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":54,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":76,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":12,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"19.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":86.7,"schoolId":73553,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Jefferson Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Jefferson Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/michigan/wyandotte-public-school-district/jefferson-elementary-school/73553"}
