My Students

My first grade class is full of high energy, eager learners. The class consists of 17 wonderful six and seven-year-old children who love to come to school every day to learn and socialize.

My class loves to tell stories, work in groups, and work with hands-on centers.

Our school is located in a small farm community. Having such a small community makes it very unique and special. Our Pre-K through 8th grade school houses under 300 students. Everyone knows each other, thus we have a very friendly, supportive student body and staff.

My Project

Having a new carpet will keep my students comfortable while working in small groups, participating in whole group lessons, and during morning meetings. This will be a wonderful addition to our classroom and enhance the learning environment. My students will be so grateful to enjoy a new carpet!

Every teacher knows that children love working on the floor!

This special rug will not only help my students learn shapes, but also give each of them their own spot to sit on the carpet. Having a distinct spot, marked by a specific shape is not only fun, but the structure first graders needs. Thank you for your consideration!
