Carpet Time Rug

Help me give my students a classroom rug for lessons on the floor.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Tagliamonte's classroom raised $295

This project is fully funded

My Project

Sitting on the floor in prek is common! But, without a carpet it's no fun! My students need a cozy place to sit while learning in the classroom!

The carpet will be used for indoor play, lessons, and free time!

Students will use it every day! The carpet will be kept in the front of our classroom where learning takes place and kids will be able to sit on it to learn letters and numbers!

Thank you for considering donating to our 6x9 classroom carpet! We are so excited to have it in our classroom!

These materials will map to CSDE ESSER priorities to help with learning acceleration and students social, emotional needs in the elementary classroom. Helping students get materials they need in their classroom to support all of their needs and especially supporting their mental health is a priority. Students who are being enriched will also benefit from using these resources in the elementary school classroom.
