Privacy Screen for Student Desk

This is a privacy screen that can be placed on a desk. This is useful for kids who need to be more isolated to do their work and help block out distractions. It can also help promote their concentration on whatever task they are doing.

I learned to do cardboard carpentry at the Adaptive Design Association

Bill of Materials

Cut out three cardboard pieces (two side pieces and one back piece) using the measurements in the drawing above.

Cover all exposed edges with the gummed tape. Then apply primer, paint and polyurethane.
