My Project

Our classroom is in need of a new carpet for circle time, community building and mini lessons. We utilize this time together to grow both academically and emotionally. This carpet will be used for morning meeting, whole group math/reading lessons, a space for students to be comfortable while doing independent pair-share work and a hub for students to collaborate.

The carpet gives students a safe space to share feelings and emotions.

Once a student shares their story, it encourages others to tell theirs. The carpet is a calm space to learn empathy and make connections.

Help give our classroom a cozy make-over! Our new carpet will be the main gathering place as a class family. We will not only spend lesson time together here, but also celebrate our academic and emotional growth throughout the year.
