Funded Dec 26, 2024I am writing to express my heartfelt thanks for fully funding my project. Your generosity has provided essential seating options that will significantly enhance my students learning experiences. We are using the individual rugs during circle time and also during instruction. Be that Math or Literacy. It feels good in the heart to see them seating on the rugs not directly on the cold and hard floor the way they did before we got your help.
The day the rugs were delivered, the children could not wait to help me tear the box apart. They saw the calming colors and immediately started calling dibs on their favorites. With the circular individual rugs, my students get to enjoy flexible sitting arrangements, allowing them to find comfortable spots around the classroom. We are a kindergarten classroom. My students are starting to read independently. Our next steps are to start forming reading clubs. We need to use the space around the room. Lucky for us, the rugs are portable. We can seat comfy even in the hallways. Now that is really just great.
My students and I thank you and hope you get to help other students and teachers with similar needs.
Sincerely,
Maria Bergamini
