My Project

My students need a small rug so they will be able to read independently on it, and they would also be able to read with another classmate on it. They also would use this rug to work with others on third grade math skills and reading skills throughout the year. We have a classroom with a tile floor so this rug would give my students a comfortable place to read and work comfortably. Thank you in advance for considering my project for funding. I know my students would appreciate having this cozy space to work on.
