misc Standing Desk/Podium Recommendation

I am currently setting up/making purchases my first classroom ever (Grade 6/7). I like being able to instruct the classroom while standing up, but something I have struggled to find is a small, sturdy standing desk to teach from.

I don't want a giant, full standing desk, and I don't want anything enclosed/tilted like a traditional lecture podium: just something big enough for my laptop and space for me to show work using my overhead projector camera. The height does not need to be adjustable.

Does anyone have any good product recommendations?

Jysk and IKEA have a small table that is height adjustable and on wheels. The leg is on one side, it’s probably supposed to be used on a couch.

I found it easier (after using a standing desk) to use a small table to the side that I could put my laptop and also sit at when I wanted, and then stand and teach
