My Project

My goal is to provide a comfortable place for my students to engage in small group work and give them a place where they can sit to work independently (reading and math skills) and provide alternative seating instead of sitting at our desks all day. This rug will allow my students that comfort.

This rug will brighten up the room and give every student a space of their very own to sit without feeling overcrowded.

My project also includes a few learning games to help enhance their reading and spelling skills.
