My Project

I am asking for a new classroom rug that will help the students remain focused and engaged during our whole group learning. I am so excited to help enhance students learning, by creating a positive and fun classroom environment.

The students participate in whole group learning everyday and this rug will be the perfect addition!

Executive functioning is something many of my students struggle with and our current classroom rug has too many colors and images on it. Having a sold colored rug (that is also comfortable) will help regulate the students and allow them to maintain their focus during lessons.

I would be forever grateful to give my students a comfortable rug to sit on that does not overwhelm their senses!
