My Students

My students attend school in a low socio-economic area. The school is 100% free and reduced lunch.

My students do the majority of their learning in a group setting.

This usually means that we are sitting on the floor and learning. Unfortunately, the carpet that I currently have is very small. And sadly, that means that all of the children can't fit.

We need a space on the floor that is big and comfortable enough for all of the students to fit.

My Project

My students do the majority of their learning on the carpet in a group setting. The carpet I currently have is very small and all my students do not fit, which means many are sitting on the hard floor. I need a comfortable place for the students to sit on the floor that is easy to maintain and keep clean. The foam squares would be a great addition to the classroom as every student would have their own personal place to sit. This would prevent arguing over where to sit and would give each student a comfortable place to learn.
