Getting Comfy With a New Rug!

My students need a new rug to provide a comfortable place for them to listen to text, have conversations, and provide a safe space for creative play.

My Students

Kindergarten is a special place where students have the opportunity to learn through a variety of different texts, experiences, games, and modalities.

The Kindergarten students I teach in the Lakeview neighborhood are curious, inquisitive, funny, and full of wonder!

They come to school each day ready to read, play, investigate, and explore. It is truly amazing to see them smile, engage in conversations, and inspire their peers (and me!) to learn as much as they can each and every day.

My Project

Students spend a lot of time on the rug each day, so a cozy and colorful spot is something that will help stimulate their creativity!

A new rug will provide a safe and comfortable space for Kindergarten students to read books, create projects, and engage in conversations.

This new addition to the classroom will change the overall feel of the room itself, making it inviting to all students (as well as any visitors who may come to see the learning these students want to present). It will allow a space for each child, promoting inclusion in the group for a variety of different learning experiences.
