Rugs In Action





Thanks to a grant from the Meyerhoff Foundation, each of our PreK classrooms received a new rug in early December.  Each rug has a different design, with plenty of learning built in.  My particular favorite is the one in the 2's room, which has a beautiful image of the earth and lots of bright colors.  In this photo, Ms. Lavonne uses a "learning carpet" designed especially for math to help our four-year-old students see patterns and relationships in a 100-square grid.
