My Project

Hello, my name is Ms. Barbie Lopez, and I am thrilled to share with you the vibrant and engaging environment we’ve cultivated in our second grade classroom. Our goal is to seamlessly blend learning with fun, creating an atmosphere where students are both excited and eager to learn.

We’re seeking your support to make our classroom even more inviting and functional.

We have an array of dynamic activities that make learning come alive, and a key part of this is having a cozy, designated space for group instruction. By adding a colorful, comfortable rug to our classroom, we can enhance our group sessions and facilitate smooth transitions between activities.

This rug will not only provide a warm and welcoming space for our daily team activities but also contribute to a more organized and engaging learning experience. In today’s 21st-century classroom, teaching extends beyond textbooks to encompass art, creativity, and interactive learning. Your support in creating this special space will help us achieve that vision and ensure our classroom remains a dynamic and productive environment.
