My students need a sitting rug! This rug would allow all my students to come together and learn and explore in the most comfortable environment!

My Students

This is my first year teaching, and my students and I would greatly appreciate anything that could better our classroom! I would love to build a great classroom community and I need one particular thing to make that happen! My future students will be over the moon on the first day of school to see their brand new room! I want my students to be proud of their room and the work they will complete while there!

There are lots of things that my future students need, with one particular in mind!

I am extremely excited to begin my first year teaching 1st grade!

My Project

We need a rug which will make the perfect addition to our classroom! Students will be on the rug in the morning, during whole group instruction, during free time, and many more times during the day! This rug would tie together the room perfectly. As a first year teacher, it is extremely difficult to make a classroom perfect with little to no budget at all. I would like all of my students to feel proud of their room at all times, and I believe a rug is what my room needs! Since this is my first year teaching anything would be greatly appreciated for my first grade babies!
