PreK Needs a Carpet!

Help me give my students a cozy carpet to sit on during Circle Time and a drying rack to keep their masterpieces safe while they dry!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Martinez's classroom raised $628

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My little learners LOVE painting daily and right now they put their projects on any surface to dry but it can be pretty messy. Having a drying rack will help us save space and keep their art safe.

Our class meets for circle time and story time at the carpet area everyday, only right now my students have to sit on the bare floor.

We jokingly call it the "Invisible Carpet Area". A carpet would make this area more cozy, inviting and more comfortable for our PreKindergarteners to sit on.
