My Project

Please help me get a rug for my students to sit on when we come together either as a whole class or small groups.

Small children need to move around - a lot!

Our school is more that 100 years old and the floors are cold and not very clean. My kids love to come sit in front of the Smart Board even though it is not really comfortable. A warm rug would allow them to work together and be able to stretch out a little bit. This rug would be a great addition to our classroom.

Ms. Sergeant Burns Elementary Middle School Grades PreK-2
