My Students

Think about this... Your teacher asks the class to join him/her in the meeting area for a lesson. The only problem is that the meeting area is on the hard tile and very uncomfortable. How can you possibly be focused on the teacher when you can't get comfortable?

Building a classroom to feel like a community is a very important part of learning.

Our school really focuses on working together, whether it be with partners or small groups. My students are your typical third graders. They love to be active and move around, so sitting at their desks all day is not the best approach. Their attention is often best kept when we are all together in close proximity or small groups. Asking students to work together is often the easy task. The hard task is finding a comfortable place to work or meet.

My Project

Having a rug in the classroom will allow me to conduct lessons where all of my students are in close proximity to me and to each other. They will easily be able to share their thoughts and ideas when I ask them to turn and talk. It will also be a place where my students can get comfy cozy and cuddle up with a book or work with a partner.

My classroom needs a rug so that they have a comfortable place to sit and be more attentive learner--instead of focusing on the fact that they're uncomfortable.

A rug makes it feel like home!
