My Project

Having a place for the students to work in a group or listen to a story is something that would make our classroom more inviting. Currently, we do not have a classroom carpet where the students can comfortably work together in groups or as a whole class. My students all sit at individual desks spread across a hard tile floor, which may not meet their individual or collective needs in feeling ready to learn.

I would love for my students to have a designated area that provides comfort while allowing them to collaborate together to build a sense of community.

Building a sense of community is important for the students to feel connected to each other. When students feel connected to their peers they feel safe and are willing to take risks in their learning knowing that they are supported and cared for. The carpet would provide an inviting space for the students to work together as a family.
