Community Carpet Time

Help me give my students a place to come together and build community. The carpet is the heart of the early childhood classroom and the most important place to build relationships and learn together.

My Project

This carpet will be the heart of my classroom. My carpet is a place that my students really enjoy-I read on the carpet to them, they complete work there, and it's where they gather to do fun activities and play learning games!

A new carpet will allow the students a place to come together and build a positive classroom community.

We spend a lot of time on the carpet and a clean and fresh space is just what we need to make it inviting.

My students are 1st graders who have lots of energy and great personality. I believe that providing this choice will help my students feel more included in their education, create a positive classroom culture, and guide to better academic outcomes. Your donation would make a lasting impact on my students' success.

Please consider supporting this project by making a donation through my DonorsChoose page. Every little bit counts, and together, we can provide a comfortable and fresh new place for my kids to grow and learn!

Thank you so much for your generosity and support.
