My Project

Please 'kelp' me get a nice rug for my 2nd-grade students to sit on in this sea-themed classroom. I hope to make sure that their space is both clean and provides them a sense of wonder. Additionally, I have some books in my cart as well as materials to keep the classroom hygienic and entertaining. 2nd grade is the most fin-tastic year, and I want to fill it with as much wonder and joy as possible for these students with pretty decor, lights, and a nice calming corner for when we're feeling a little sea-sick.

Thank you so much!

Ms. Diep Helen Jydstrup Elementary School Grades 3-5
