My Project

A classroom rug can make a big difference in student learning because it creates a comfortable and inclusive environment. It provides a designated space for students to gather, collaborate, and participate in group activities. Having a rug can also help with classroom management by giving students a clear visual boundary.

Having a classroom rug will help me reach my goals to enhance student engagement and participation.

It encourages students to interact with each other and the teacher, promoting a sense of community and fostering social skills. It also creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere, making the learning environment more enjoyable and conducive to learning.

My students are truly special! Each one of them brings their unique talents, perspectives and experiences to the classroom. Their diversity enriches the learning environment and encourages a culture of inclusivity and acceptance. By providing them with a comfortable and supportive space with a classroom rug, I am valuing and celebrating these things and creating a space where every student can feel seen, heard, and valued.
