My students need a new carpet in the classroom. The one I have now is small and was crowded when 18 students were sitting on it.

My Students

Pre-K for all is now something that most of the children in the community will be a part of. It is an important part of the learning process and provides solid stepping stones for success for the children in the future.

Our Pre-K classes have expanded to 20 students each which shows that our community is growing.

We as educators would like to provide a safe and clean environment for our students to be able to grow, play and learn.

My Project

Just setting up my room for the new year made me realize my carpet was going to be too small.

Last year my students were sitting vey close on the carpet.

Now that I will be getting more students I want them to be more comfortable and not worry about bumping into each other. Some students do need their space.

It will help them to be able to interact and participate in activities. There will be plenty of room for the students to get around and get up and down. The carpet will be used for students to do puzzles, build blocks and music and movement activities.
