My Project

Please help me purchase a new rug for my new classroom! I loved having one at my old school and would love to have one at my new school as well. I had the please of meeting some of my students during my demo lesson, and was so happy to see how sweet, respectful and engaged they are. However, I will be teaching the littlest of the littles, 3K and PreK, so organization and clear routines will be key.

I want to have a warm, inviting classroom, with clear structure to help with classroom management.

Rugs are soothing to sit on and help to brighten up the space. This rug is perfect for my needs.
