My Project

I love teaching and watching my students grow together. This will be my ninth year teaching first grade, and my classroom needs some updates! I would love a new classroom rug that is big enough to fit all of our engaged learners together. These students are on their way back to normalcy in the classroom after COVID and I want all my first graders to love coming to school each day. In first grade, we use our classroom carpet as a meeting spot frequently throughout the day.

A rug that can fit all of our first grade students to build our caring classroom community together each day, along with individual book bins would be a wonderful addition to our classroom!

New book bins are needed for the students to store books of choice, reading journals, and their learning materials for the year. My previous bins have been used by learners for over five years. They are cracked and are no longer in the best shape for my upcoming class.

Both the book bins and rug would be very appreciated and used daily by our students. I truly need your support in updating my classroom for our incoming first graders this school year. Thanks for your consideration!
