My Project

The largest item I am requesting is a new classroom rug. My old rug has been in the classroom for years and has seen better days, but the kids love to sit and learn on the rug! I am hoping to be able to bring a brand new rug into my new school.

I want my classroom to feel cozy and safe for all of my students, and I feel like a rug adds so much character to a room.

Kids will be able to stretch out and learn on this rug instead of sitting on hard tile or their desk chairs all of the time.

I am also requesting a classroom mailbox so that students can easily access and take home graded work/flyers from school.
