My Project

In our 2nd grade, we are desperate to replace of old carpet in our classroom. We need a carpet that can fit 27 students on the carpet so continue to the great opportunities of learning this school year.

As you know all students do not learn the same way.

Your help would make a difference in the way we gather together in our classroom.

The new carpet in our 2nd-grade classroom would great opportunity to continue learning through whole and small-group instructions.

Our 2nd grade classroom is set up small and we need our space to be comfortable with our learning.
