A New Classroom Rug

Help me give my students a new classroom rug(s) to learn and grow on!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Weddle's classroom raised $800

This project is fully funded

My Project

A classroom rug is an important space for students to have! It creates a warm and inviting area for students to learn, grow, and especially read. As a fourth-grade teacher, I have the privilege of working with a group of curious, enthusiastic, and hardworking students who inspire me every day. What I love most about them is their eagerness to learn, their willingness to support one another, and their constant desire to explore new ideas. Every day is an adventure in creativity and collaboration.

A classroom rug would be a game-changer for my students, as it would provide them with a comfortable, safe, and inviting space to gather and learn.

Whether students are reading a book, working with a partner, or studying VA Studies, a rug will create a designated area that promotes focus and engagement.
