My Project

A new rug for my kindergarten classroom in a Title I school would provide a vital foundation for creating a warm, welcoming, and engaging learning environment. In early childhood education, the rug serves as a central gathering place for group instruction, story time, social-emotional learning, and community-building activities. For many students in Title I schools, a clean, comfortable, and colorful rug creates a sense of security and belonging that is essential for fostering positive classroom culture and promoting student engagement. It also supports structured learning routines and helps children develop spatial awareness, social skills, and self-regulation. This investment would directly enhance the quality of instruction, contribute to a nurturing school climate, and help meet the developmental needs of young learners during a critical stage of growth.
