Learning Personal Space on a Rainbow Rug!

Funded Jan 26, 2020

We can't thank you enough for our new rug. This rug has helped us learn personal space. We are able to sit in our own spots on the rug and keep our hands and feet to ourselves. We each have our own colored square to sit in and there are 24 squares, one for each of us! When we have circle time on the rug, we are able to pay attention to what the teacher is saying because we are not concerned about other friends touching us.

We were so excited to get this rug; we were cheering for the Amazon delivery man! We use this rug for many things in our classroom. We do morning meeting on it as well as story time and games. This new rug is much bigger than our old rug and we all have our own space on the rug, so we feel like we all belong. We can have several kids play games on the rug because we have a lot of space.

This rug has made a difference in our behaviors as well as our learning. We don't get in trouble anymore for touching our friends. We are able to focus on our lessons and answer the questions that the teacher asks us. We can concentrate and get along much better. Thank you so much for donating to our classroom. This rug has improved our room in so many ways!!”

With gratitude,
