I would like to request a carpet for our reading time in the library. The carpet has 4 rows of 6 spots and is able to seat 24 students in their own personal spaces. My students only get 30 minutes a week in the library with me. During this time we do announcements, story time with discussions, and check out books. When my students come into the library they line up in the hallway. I usually number them off in rows of 5 at a time to come in to sit down, so everyone is not dog piling on the floor. Currently, students don't know where to sit, or they will try to occupy the same space. With the new carpet, I can direct them to sit on their own circle. The circles are far enough apart that students can have their own personal spaces. Most of my classes have 22 students, so the carpet on my wish list will accommodate the entire class comfortably. Now when students come in, we spend extra time trying to get them into their proper rows, and this takes away from our story and check out time.
