My Project

Students today love to sit on rugs, share ideas and work on their communication skills. A rug like this is perfect to split the class in two and work in groups.

Kids don't always like sitting in their desks all day and want to spread out, this rug gives them this opportunity spread their wings and debate each other on topics like the climate, politics, benefits of college and so forth.

Our students love to converse about many topics and sitting on a group rug gives them the opportunity to look into the faces of their peers and share opinions and discuss why they fel the way they do.
