My Project

My students are in second grade and they thrive off of learning from the teacher and working with each other. Multiple times throughout the day, my students gather together on the floor in a whole group setting and in small group setting to learning new curriculum and get a comfortable and clean spot, front centered in front of the classroom.

This beautiful and colorful Learning for Literacy Fish Carpet will allow my students to sit in a comfortable place in the center of the room for whole group and small group instruction.

Sitting together in a primary classroom is an integral part of the learning process! Teachers have to model their instruction and students need to be able to sit comfortably on the floor and front and center to get a good eye's view of the lesson being taught.
