They are so happy to have a colorful, soft place to sit during learning time. They also LOVE having their own individual spot to sit.\r\n\r\nMy students were so happy to have a rug delivered, they immediately wanted to unroll it and move it to right in front of our board. The smiles were priceless and even students who came in late noticed the new rug right away!\r\n\r\nThank you to everyone who contributed to helping us get a wonderful rug for our classroom!

Within a month of the new school year, my position at school changed and I am now teaching in a 3-5 Resource room. Regardless of where I am teaching, these material have already made such a wonderful difference in my classroom and have truly helped make it feel like home. \r\n My older students especially love using the bean bag chairs while working independently with a clipboard. My students love taking brain breaks on the rug, and it has already seen many dancing feet! The chair bands have also been a wonderful tool for helping students stay focused and engaged while working at their desks. \r\n I am incredibly grateful for your generosity and for helping create a classroom environment where my students can feel comfortable, supported, and ready to learn.

We have been studying community helpers since the beginning of the school year, but there was very little enthusiasm, because they couldn't picture themselves in the roles, but as soon as the costumes came out they were discussing who was going to be what. I now have a student who wants to be a firefighter, another wants to be a police officer, and another one wants to be a garbage collector.\r\n \r\n I love the costume tree it is adorable and keeps all the costumes neat and orderly. These costumes have been an inspiration to my students and makes teaching these topics so much more tangible.
