Come Learn at a Bright New Meeting Place!

Funded Aug 24, 2017

Thank you so much for all of the donations which were made; my class and myself are beyond grateful for our new classroom rug. I was able to loop with my Kindergarten students to first grade, so upon coming into a new classroom they were ecstatic to see the new rug. They noticed it right away and were so happy to see how bright it was. They all mentioned how they loved the colors. It made me so happy to see how excited they were about their new rug. I mentioned to them how the rug was a gift which was given to us from different people who donated money to our class. They were all so happy and promised to take care of the new rug and make sure it didn't get dirty and stayed brand new, it really is heartwarming to see them take care of their classroom rug.

In an early childhood classroom a classroom rug is a piece of furniture which is essential and utilized throughout the day. So our new rug has definitely had an impact on our day to day learning. In the morning upon arriving we start our morning meeting on the rug; nothing is better than starting your day on a positive note and our new bright rug definitely helps promote that. Throughout the day the rug is a place where the entire class meets to receive whole instruction and then go off into their independent work. Some students work at their tables and others are able to work on the rug. I now feel comfortable allowing students to lay on the rug while reading and or writing while before I tried to have them stray away from it because of all the stains it had. I can now rest assure that students are able to work on the rug which doesn't contain mysterious unknown stains and I have the Donor's Choose community to thank for that.”
