My Project

Please help me give my third graders a more comfortable and inviting spot to sit. I teach my whole group at the whiteboard and all students come to the carpet. I feel my classroom community would just love a fun rig to sit on while learning.

My goal for this project is to ensure all my student's are comfortable and satisfied.

Having a place for them all to go that is not just the carpet but rather a fun rug has me thinking they will be even more excited for learning!

Thank you for your time and consideration to helping us build an even better community!

Ms. Snakenberg
Grades 3-5
    More than a third of students from low‑income households

    This project will reach 23 students.
