My Project

Hello everyone! My name is Miss Roher and this is my first year moving into third grade. Third graders are my people and I am so excited to begin this journey with them this upcoming school year. I am requesting a cozy classroom rug for my students to collaborate with other students and me during lessons and activities. This particular rug provides a positive smiley face for each student to sit on and provides the opportunity for students to discuss and work through skills with a close neighbor. This rug will help promote communication among my students and further build our welcoming classroom community. I am looking forward to seeing how much joy this rug will bring my students.
