My students learn best when they are actively engaged and are able to work closely and comfortably with each other on a rug. A new rug is needed, as our old one is eighteen years old and is worn and stained! The new Rhyme Time rug will offer a comfortable place to learn and will embrace the type of nature inspired environment I envision for my students with its earth-tone colors. I cannot wait to decorate my new nature inspired classroom because I know my students will be captivated by the lessons and units that we can explore, both inside on our rug and outside with real nature! I know our new rug will give us opportunities to work together and put our creative and inquisitive minds to work. The rug will also provide extra opportunities for rhyming and other essential phonics skills necessary to read because they are printed on the rug!
