The rug currently in my room was a hand-me-down, and it can fit about 10 students comfortably. Being at the rug is an important part of my daily instruction because it encourages active listening and participation from my students. I have used carpet squares this past year to accommodate all the students to sit comfortably; however, this process can impede on the flow and instruction time when students are transitioning for their whole group lesson or when transitioning back to their reading/writing spots to practice the skills taught. A new, colorful rug will add to the classroom in a great way!
