My Project

Hello! My name is Mr. Linn, I am a first-year fourth grade teacher in San Francisco. I just visited my new classroom and am now looking for items that can create a comfortable learning environment for my students.

The current rug that is in the classroom can fit about 24 of my 26 students.

The majority of my lessons are taught from the front of the classroom to students seated on the rug. This carpeted space is the center of student learning and should be comfortable and welcoming. Being able to provide my classroom with a new Lakeshore 9’ x 12’ rug will accommodate all 26 of my students to fit on a single rug!

The current rug will not go to waste! It will be perfect for the classroom's library space.

While there are many items that I will need in the future, this is one that will immediately help students in their day-to-day.

Thank you for reading!
