Funded Dec 6, 2014Thank you so much for the generous donation. I am truly grateful for what you did. My students and I love the carpet. When I told my students that we were getting a carpet for the floor, I had one student says, "Yes, we don't have to sit on the cold floor anymore!" They were supper excited. They asked every day when we were going to get it. When we finally got it they were out of the room. So I put it down and when they came back in they couldn't wait to sit down and look at all the pictures on it. They were so excited and said it was awesome! They love it just as much as I do. Thanks for putting a smile on my students face.
I am using the carpet for whole group and to cut down on discipline. We also use the carpet when we are using the smartboard. My students are able to sit in one spot and not move. We are also using the carpet doing buddy reading. My students now fight over who can get on the carpet. They love to sit and read on it.
This carpet boost my teaching and my students' learning by cutting down on behaviors and moving around a lot. My students are able to sit in one spot and focus on what I am teaching and I do not have to repeat myself so many times. Each student has a spot and they know where to sit and they do not move from that spot like they did before we had the carpet. I catch my students rubbing their hands on the carpet because they like how it feels. It is also good for sensory.
Again I want to thank you for your generous donation to my fund. We are so happy and we are learning so much more!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Leaf
