My Project

There is nothing better than having a cool, calm and COZY classroom, especially in Pre-K. This brand new carpet will be the perfect addition to our beautiful classroom! As a Special Education teacher, it is important for my students to have visuals and comfortable seating in order to keep them engaged. This carpet has visual letters of the alphabet on it, which will give my students the opportunity to be assigned a specific letter to sit on to help them stay focused and on task during whole group meetings.

Please help my students feel as comfortable as possible in our classroom, their home away from home!

My students are only 3 and 4 years old, and need constant comfort throughout the day. This carpet will provide them with a safe and cozy space for them to go to when they are feeling upset or just need a break. Each of my students are special in their own way and deserve the absolute best experience when coming to our Pre-K classroom!

With your help, my students will be smiling just like the smiley faces on the carpet! They are all amazing and deserve to be cool, calm and COZY at all times!
