Comfort + Focus = Academic Success!

My students need a clean carpet and pillows to help facilitate comfort as we learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cavanaugh's classroom raised $463

My Students

My students are hard working all day long. I would like to bring a little comfort into our classroom lives. With a rug and pillows I believe they will enjoy our mini lessons, and learn more.

My children are wonderful four and five year olds.

I know they love to get involved in our learning. They work hard each day to work towards their goals. It would be nice to offer them the comfort of a rug to sit on and pillows to use while we read, write, have centers, etc.

My Project

During reading, writing, math and center time my students will be able to learn in comfort. It is nice to work on a carpet instead of a cold tile floor. It also makes them get comfortable which allows for learning. Together we will use these items to facilitate our learning in a comfortable way.

Adding comfort and a warm loving environment helps any child feel at ease.

My kids would love to have these materials in class to relax and concentrate on their work. These items will be used for years to come.
