My Project

Rest Time is a part of our daily schedule in the Pre-K class. It is a time for our students to unwind, relax and prepare for the afternoon. Some students do sleep and others may just read a book on their mat.

As I packed up the room at the end of the year I noticed some of the mats had tears or were cracked at the seams.

I would love to have new mats that look good as the students begin their school year and I am sure that the students would too. It is always exciting to have new things at the beginning of the year!
