My Project

My little learners are eager for carpet time every morning! This is where we spend the first part of our day ready to learn. A colorful rug that will accommodate 20 students to have their own square to sit on without touching each other is a way to ensure each student has their on space to move in.

The colorful classroom rug will be an inviting place for students to come every morning and is the heart of our kindergarten classroom!

We like to dance to educational videos, sing, and play fun learning games at our carpet time. Students can sit on the rug to read or just simply take a break.

Kindergarten is a special time filled with learning new things about the world around. Students are still growing and learning about all the new things in their classroom. This run will allow my students to feel like the classroom is a safe welcoming place for them to come to every morning. Please consider donating to our sweet group of students that deserve to sit comfortably on classroom size rug!
