A Comfy Place to Read

Funded Dec 27, 2022

My students and I are loving our new classroom rug! Our favorite way to use it is to sit and listen to stories and poems. We use the rug as a seating option that is available most of the day. This allows students the autonomy to decide where they will learn best at any given moment. We regularly have students moving from their seat to the rug and vice versa during lessons and they enjoy having the freedom to not be confined to a specific spot while learning.

This rug is also great for when we have class meetings. Students love getting to choose a butterfly to sit on so we are all seated around the edge of the rug facing each other. We have solved many classroom conflicts by sitting as a community and discussing things with each other.

We cannot thank you enough for your generosity and commitment to making our classroom a more comfortable and enjoyable learning environment!”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Abbruzzesi
