We currently do not have a rug for the children to sit comfortably. The rug I have chosen has enough squares for each child to have their own spot with room to wiggle. It will be used for whole group and small group instruction as well as a place to lay out, relax and enjoy a good book. This rug is essential to our classroom. It is the heart of our classroom. It will be a place of comfort for my students where they will learn new concepts, listen to stories read aloud, and participate in discussions. We also need more books that the children can read themselves. While we have many books we read aloud to the children, our library of leveled books they can read themselves is sparse. My students need lots of practice reading in order to become better readers. They need a range of books they can read without getting frustrated due to difficulty and books that will challenge them as they improve in their reading. My students will be excited and grateful to have a new rug they can sit on comfortably and all new books they can read on their own.
