My Students

My Kindergarteners have a busy day filled with learning and fun.

I have 21 Kindergarteners in my classroom.

My students are energetic, curious, and excited about learning. They are working very hard, and they are proud of their progress so far this year. My students enjoy learning, but the busy day often makes it difficult for them to stay engaged and sit still. I am always looking for ways to keep my students engaged and excited about coming to school.

My Project

My students spend most of their day engaged in learning activities on the rug. Students often have a hard time sitting comfortably and finding their own space. This new rug is bright, colorful, and comfortable. It also includes shapes and the letters of the alphabet. We can use the spaces on the rug for engaging learning activities, and students will each have a designated spot to sit comfortably.

This new rug will improve our classroom by providing students with a bright and comfortable place to sit.

My students spend the majority of their day sitting on the floor, and they often have trouble sitting comfortably. This new rug will improve their understanding of letters and provide them with enough space to sit comfortably without feeling crowded.
