Rested and Ready to Learn!

My students need 20 new rest mats. The ones that we have are broken and most of them have lost the foam.

My Students

My students are great kids who love reading, playing, and discovering new facts. They come from different countries from around the world including Italy, Germany, Colombia, Chile, Spain, and Costa Rica.

They are a fantastic group and we are having so much fun together.

Moreover, we belong to a bilingual program where we learn English and Spanish, so everything we do in our class is in both languages. It is challenging and really exciting to see how they learn in both languages.

My Project

My students need new rest mats where they can enjoy of a quiet time. Rest time is a crucial part of our schedule in order to get ready for the new learning along the afternoon. It is such an important part of our day; after lunch we play some relaxing music and my little students take a deserved break after a long morning of learning. It is the perfect way to charge their batteries and get ready for, as important, afternoon learning. The new mats will let them rest in a comfortable and cozy spot and enjoy our nap time.
