We can all fit!\" exclaimed one of my students. Now the students can all sit comfortably on the rug and view the lessons on screen in front of them. No more tripping on the frayed edges of the old rug, or trying to find a space on the rug where they can see the screen.\r\nThis year we started book clubs. Each of my students chose a book to read with a few other students. Now that we have a new rug, three small groups of students can read on the rug, grab a pillow and discuss their book at the same time.The rug is the perfect size for the three groups to be separate enough and not disturb the other book clubs. Every morning my students can't wait when it's their turn to read and enjoy on the rug. It's amazing how book clubs meeting on the rug can help my students associate reading with pleasure and encourage positive social interaction.","fullyFundedDate":1755303649952,"projectUrl":"project/new-rug-and-new-books-for-new-year-of-le/9557399/","projectTitle":"New Rug and New Books for New Year of Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Fontanilla","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp5231129_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1520824537381","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5231129"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_4439","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":260,"numTeachers":13,"percentFrplEligible":89,"percentAsian":9,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":3,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":71,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"20.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":81.2,"schoolId":4439,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Junipero Serra Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Junipero Serra Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/san-francisco-unified-school-district/junipero-serra-elementary-school/4439"}
