My Project

Our class rug was removed during COVID and we never got it back. The students really like sitting on the rug during our morning meeting. Also, the rug would be awesome when we are working in small groups or listening to a read aloud. We have been sitting on beach towels for now but a new rug would really make our classroom feel more comfortable and cozy! The students in the classroom picked out the rug and are super excited to if there is someone out there that will help us out!
