My Project

I am hoping to add a classroom rug and new stools to my room next year. I teach K–5 reading interventions and see approximately 60 students throughout the week. Students of all ages appreciate different places to sit while learning and I am hopeful to add some new items for them!

The beautiful alphabet rug and wooden stools will be a welcomed addition to our classroom!

The rug will be a comfortable seating option for students during intervention lessons, independent work, and reading time. I also plan to use it during reading activities that involve letter identification for my littlest learners! I currently have small chairs that I use during work at my kidney table. The stools will be a better fit for my students, and they will also be easy to stack and store!

I have so many incredible students, and I hope to be able to add these items to our classroom next year for them. Thank you for your continued support!
