My Project

My class is comprised of an amazing group of individuals. They are a group of smart young minds who try hard and aim to succeed. These 6- and 7-year-olds require frequent transitions between their seats and the rug throughout the day. Like all first graders, they enjoy a variety of activities at the rug including reading, art, music, dance, math games, science explorations, role-playing, and team-building lessons. This dynamic group deserves an appropriate rug setting to stimulate their minds and bodies.

I'm requesting a new 9 by 12 foot classroom rug for individual and cooperative learning.

The rug I've selected has buttons that provide individual student seating. This design is helpful in the organization of student spacing and seating. The students come to the rug at least 4 times a day for various learning activities. The rug is a uniquely intimate setting for the teacher and students to engage in instruction.

Your support will provide a wealth of opportunities for the children. A bright, new, clean, attractive rug will inspire children to interact in a wide spectrum of activities. This alluring setting will encourage mental, psychomotor, dramatic, visual, and hands-on learning. Please help contribute to such an essential aspect of daily classroom instruction.
