Mrs. O'Cain’s Classroom Edit display name

With the diverse learning styles and personalities in our classroom, the students need to move around often to refocus. Part of this movement includes rug time. They come to the rug for Anchor Chart building, Read Alouds with discussion, and closely guided practices when first learning the skill. The pencil sharpener will help sharpen our abilities to function on the rug. Of course students use sharpened pencils in almost all areas of the classroom. The rug is just one of the areas. Our sharpener quit working so I borrow from other teachers. The students do not need dull pencils distracting them from their work. There are enough distractions without that.
