My Project

My students love to build and explore their imagination. This mat will give my students a new, color, safe and cozy area where they can build in the classrooms construction center. The construction center is a very popular center in the classroom, with this larger mat it will allow for more students to gather and explore together. This mat can also be cleaned on a daily basis, helping us to look out for the health and well being of out little learners. Lets give our classroom a new safe and fun look!
