My Project

A rug is essential in our everyday learning in first grade. We meet on the rug 3-5 times a day! We are in desperate need of a new one! The rug we have now is worn down and too small - we are squished!!

Gathering together on the rug allows for more intentional and engaging learning.

I hope to soon have a new rug that is more comfortable and large enough to fit my 19 students. My students deserve the very best and I want to give that to them. They are very hardworking and sweet kids.
