Discover on the Carpet

Help me give my students a comfy place to sit on the carpet. We currently have sit spots which are fun and colorful, but not very comfy. This would be a better way to learn.

My Project

I would love to have a big rug for my students to sit, learn, create and discover new things. We do so many activities throughout the day and this would give my students a fun and colorful way to learn while exploring on the floor. I don’t always like kids to sit at tables. They need room to spread out, play in groups and have fun working in partners. I have been using sit spots for the past couple of years. They are colorful, but it is not very comfortable. I would love my students to be comfortable while learning new and amazing things every single day.

Mrs. Hastings will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by September 2.
