My Project

In our Pre-k classroom, carpet time plays an essential role in our daily learning. It is a place for us to meet and come together as a class. We use the carpet as a place for read alouds, learning, and movement allowing students to collaborate and grow. We would love a new, clean, and colorful carpet to comfortably meet together. We currently have a carpet that has been used for many years and it will be so nice for the students to have a fresh, new comfy carpet that we can use as the center of our classroom!
