Colorful and Cozy Rug for Morning Meetings

Help me give my students a cozy rug for morning meeting and small group activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Manson's classroom raised $573

This project is fully funded

My Project

My scholars are in need of a classroom rug to create a cozy learning area in the classroom. This interactive alphabet and shape rug will allow my scholars to be able to explore shapes, letters and colors while engaging in a variety of different learning experiences such as reading books, engaging music and movement and educational activities.

I would love to be able to give them an opportunity to have a comfortable space to engage and learn.

Having this amazing and colorful rug in the classroom will be a wonderful way to help scholars explore in a variety of activities from teacher guided to independent exploration with their peers!

We would be so excited to add this rug to our classroom.
