Kindergarteners Learn Best When Boundaries Are Set For Them.

My students need a Around the Block Rug during group time to learn about personal space to cut down distractions and increase the outcome of what is being taught.

Ms. A. S Ellen Jones Elementary School
New Albany, IN Grades PreK-2

This is my first year teaching and my Kindergarten class in a high-need community is where I am meant to be.

Young kindergarten students have a hard time keeping personal space in order to keep from being distracted during lessons.

I have tried a lot of things but believe a large carpet in our group area will help give students a defined space to cut down distractions and help them concentrate on what I am teaching!

You will make it possible for my students to successfully learn in my classroom. It will benefit my class this year and many classes to come!
