Help me give my students a spot for everyone to learn, a carpet for 30 Students where they can collaborate and focus on building a community that thrives.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jovel's classroom raised $659

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My 3rd grade students are enthusiastic, creative, and clever! I teach 26 third graders at a Title 1 school, where over 70% of my students are on free or reduced lunch. Everyday my students face several challenges in and out of the classroom. Yet, despite these challenges, they love learning, and always look forward to our lessons on the rug. They know that the rug is a special place for them where they can be comfortable, feel that they are in a safe environment while still being able to focus on their learning.
My Project
Since the beginning of the school year, my students have been sitting and working on an old stained rug. They know that when we come and work on the rug we are collaborating and we are focused building a community that helps each other thrive.
On the rug we work on being respectful, peaceful, kind, and most importantly we focus on building on each other’s potential.
A rug will help my students be in charge of their learning while making choices that work for them and the classroom.
During whole group and independent practice students are able to sit where they feel more comfortable. This rug would be a key component for my students' learning because they would be in a comfortable place in which they can collaborate, further class discussions, and/or work independently.
More than half of students from low‑income households
