My Project

Currently, we sit on a "magic carpet" during classroom meetings on the floor. The magic carpet is stickers with students' names on the ground and we pretend there is a carpet to sit on.

They get super wiggly and are uncomfortable sitting on the bare floor, so a soft carpet with defined places to sit would be an absolute TREAT for my small learners.

A place to sit and enjoy stories and have important discussions is really critical to being able to sustain focus while we are all together.

They often complain about sore bottoms and legs and I would love for them to have a place to sit comfortably.
