tabletop divider to make individual workspace

[caedmyn]

Does anyone have something like this? How did you make it?

I did something like that once just for one kiddo to help him focus. I used packing tape and foam poster board things and made a sort of 3 sided thing that he could work in to keep some distractions out.

I made one once. I bought a tri-fold display board used for science fairs and cut it in half so it wasn't as tall. I had one for each child. They could tape things up on it for school or personalize it.

Here are examples of cardboard tri-fold display boards cut in half (horizontally), so you can get 2 dividers out of one tri-fold display board. Jazz them up and add pockets and/or clips for learning resources, or schedule, or other work handy, if it doesn't distract the student.

Yes...those pictures above are basically what I made in the past with foam board.

If you do a search for a "mini office" online, you'll find tons of ideas of what you could include. We did one using file folders, but display boards etc... could work well too. It's a fun thing they can personalize and can also put information they use for school on it.

I have had folding "screens" in the past my two could put to use when they wanted, but they never really liked them.  Our dining room table stays set up as our homeschool table, with a tablecloth to protect the nice wood of the table.  The cloth is red, so I ran a black ribbon across it and pinned it in place as a center line.  My two kids each get one half of their side of the table, and the ribbon marks the boundary.  We have stiff plastic placemats for writing surfaces, which also help to delineate work space from book-piling space.
