My Project

My students thrive in structured, engaging environments where they can gather together and feel a sense of community. This project will help create a dedicated rug area in our classroom, a space where we can start our day, share ideas, review the calendar and schedule, and participate in whole-group lessons.

The rug will give students a cozy place to sit and learn, while the vacuum will help us keep the space clean and inviting.

This space will become the heart of our classroom, promoting connection, conversation, and collaboration every day.
