Funded Nov 30, 2022Thank you so much for your generous support of classroom and the students who learn here!
Covid, particularly the shut down and the learning from home we all had to do, has had an impact on my students. They were just five and six years old in kindergarten and on March 13th, 2020, they unexpectedly sent home and didn't reenter a classroom for almost a full calendar year. They had barely begun to learn the skills needed to exist in a classroom setting, when it all went away. This changed their learning style. They were not accustomed to sitting at a desk for hours, without the freedom of breaks and frequent movement. In order to best serve them, my style had to change too.
Having the ability to move and work in a flexible spaces is vital for them. This beautiful classroom rug that you all provided for us, allows them to learn in the way they now need to. They are able to move their bodies freely and safely. And it contributes greatly to a home like learning environment. Thank you so much for this beautiful gift!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Duncan
