My Project

I teach a wonderful group of 3rd graders. Every day I strive to create an environment that fosters learning, collaboration, and creativity. However, we're missing a crucial element in our space – a comfortable and inviting classroom rug.

A classroom rug serves as more than just a piece of decor.

It's a gathering place where students can come together for group activities, discussions, and story time. It's a focal point that could provide structure to our classroom layout while also offering a clean, cozy spot for students to sit and work. At this time I am not able to provide the comfort and functionality that my students deserve.

By contributing to this project, you'll be directly enhancing the learning experience of my students. A quality rug will last for years to come, benefiting not only my current students but also future generations of learners who pass through my classroom.

I am incredibly grateful for any support you can provide towards this project. Your generosity will help to create a space where my students feel inspired, supported, and eager to learn. Thank you for considering my project, and for your commitment to the education and well-being of my students.
