We're Growing!

Funded Oct 23, 2013

Our class can't thank you enough for the donation you have given us. Since receiving our rug we are much more comfortable when doing whole group learning. Our classmates with special space needs have plenty of room to learn in a setting suitable for them. We are now able to sit, as a class, and enjoy each others company.

We use our rug not only for whole group learning but for learning from each other as well. Our students can now sit comfortably and listen to each other tell stories of what they did over the weekend. This is one of our class' favorite things to do! Every Monday, we sit on the rug and tell about our weekend. When we are finished they either write or draw a picture (depending on learning level) about what they did or what a friend did. Before our rug we were not able to do this.

Our rug also has the alphabet and numbers one through twenty on it for easy learning and seating arrangements. The students love waiting for me to tell them where they are sitting for the day. We have even started letting our older kids assign the seats for the day.

Once again, we can't express our gratitude for your donation. Please know it has been used very well and we all love it!”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Young
