My Project

Our school is a small neighborhood school in Southwest Florida. We serve a diverse community filled with loving, hardworking, and extremely motivated children and families. There is a wide range of educational levels in my classroom. I love meeting the needs of EACH child!

We love exploring new ideas!

A typical day in my classroom is an adventurous day, filled with hand-on inspiring learning. Students work in small groups, partnerships and individually to investigate; science, math, social studies and reading. With this rug, the learning possibilities are endless for these motivated children.

This rug will allow for flexible seating in our room. Kindergarteners need the structure of routines throughout the day. This rug allows children to have a predictable spot for daily learning.

Children learn best through meaningful hands on activities.

This rug will allow our kids to learn phonics even while they sit and move through activities!

There are many activities that foster learning that we can do with this rug. Children will have the opportunity to get up and move while playing fun phonics games!

I know that the children in our community will love this rug as it adds dimension to our room and an endless supply of learning!
