FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Becky Bistrow's classroom raised $282
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students are wonderful 3rd graders that come into the classroom with energy and excitement each day. They love learning and living together in our class family. I teach in an urban school with students from a wide range of backgrounds.
We spend time greeting one another, singing, and learning up front on the floor. It would be wonderful if those little bums could have a carpet to sit on! I'd love to get them this carpet to make our space more comfy and homey while they are learning and playing together this year.
