Spots for Everyone!

My students need a rug with designated spots. This will ensure that everyone has an individual and comfortable place to sit without being distracted by others.

My Students

My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day.

My students are an awesome group of kids with a lot of personality.

Their positive attitude and sense of humor makes my job fun and rewarding. Summit is a great my students to learn and to grow up. There is a lot of community and school pride in this town. My students love being a Bobcat!

My Project

I try to create a warm and fun experience throughout the school day so that my students are excited for school and ready to learn. I want students to find school to be an enjoyable experience, and not just a chore they have to do on a daily basis.

In my classroom I have twenty one students who are full of energy and very eager to do their best.

They make my job enjoyable as I look forward to the personality they bring to our classroom. They work very hard and deserve the best third grade experience possible!

The students will use the rug in this project to find a comfortable and independent spot to sit and learn. This will provide them with a place where they won't be distracted by others.
