The portable tables were easy to assemble and made it a teaching opportunity by having the students assist in putting them together. The tables are not bulky and can be moved easily around the room. \r\nThe students have been able to use the portable takes for a presentation about Women's History Month. They use the table to place their laptops while they were presenting giving them access to their assignment. Students indicated they felt comfortable having something in front of them. They were observed looking forward at their peers more consistently as before they often gave their backs while reading from the Smartboard. Also, the portable tables were used for a debate presentation about \"Should School Be Canceled for Bad Weather? or should everyone switch to remote learning?\" Usually, students debate from their seats but the portable tables allowed us to stage a realistic debate setting. Lastly, two students that often stand up and fidget in their seats find the portable table helpful because it allows them to work standing up. They feel less restricted and since the tables are portable can move around with ease.","fullyFundedDate":1768244866029,"projectUrl":"project/presentation-podium/9992882/","projectTitle":"Presentation Podium","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Murillo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6837063"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_2129","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":89,"percentAsian":10,"percentBlack":26,"percentWhite":15,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":44,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"US Census Data for the surrounding geographic area","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"Census ZCTA","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":53.7,"schoolId":2129,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about PS138 @ J117 on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"PS138 @ J117 ","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/district-75-city-wide-programs/ps138-j117-the-burke-school/2129"}
