My Project

A new rug will brighten up our classroom and give my students a central, visible location to gather for our daily meetings and many lessons. We will conduct small group, whole group, and even individual lessons on this rug if we are lucky enough to receive the funds!

This colorful rug will be a place where my students come together to share in each others highs, lows, and academic challenges.

There will be incredible amounts of learning happening on this rug with the most important lesson being that our class is a family who supports one another. Please help us continue to create a beautiful classroom space with the addition of this rug!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
