My Project

We are looking to get a carpet for the front of our classroom. Our classroom theme (inspired by our growth) is green and plants!

This 2023/2024 school year my students have been working incredibly hard!

I have been seeing so much growth and positive attitude changes throughout the year. We have our state exams coming up and these kiddos are putting in so much effort to practice their skills! My students mention how they would like a carpet in front of the room. I would love to be able to give them this carpet as a reward for their hard work.

My students would benefit greatly from getting a large carpet in front of the classroom. They would be closer to

the board, more engaged in the lesson, and closer in proximity to the teacher.

We currently have a small carpet in our library corner, and my students love to go there for reading and independent/group work. The students feel cozy, comfortable, and ready to work when they are in an environment they like. Believe it or not, the carpet makes a huge difference in the overall classroom environment/vibe for the students!
