My Project

This year I have the privilege of teaching a class of amazing fourth grade students. Having a large classroom rug space allows us to come together as a community and have flexible seating options when completing our academic work. Having bins and a cozy rug for our classroom library allows them to relax and really get into each book. They are reading.

Our students begin just a few days into August and it is very important to start off the year strong with having our clean and cozy classroom rugs ready to go for students to begin enjoying.

Right now, they only have desk to sit out in their classroom.

I would be so grateful for my students if you would consider donating to this project and helping them have a great start to the new school year.
