Help me give my students a more conducive learning environment by having a rug. I have 32 students and space is very tight. I would love to have another seating option for students, other than their desks!

My Project
Our BIG happy family is full of personality! We love movement but with our number (32) and tight space, moving around the room is tough. Having a rug allows for movement and the chance to utilize every inch of our classroom! Our class read-alouds and circle times are meant for connection, and that's hard to accomplish with everyone in desks. How much more comforting and connecting would it be to have everyone together in one space, on a comfy rug reading and talking!? THE DREAM! I would also love the opportunity to break up the monotony of being in one spot the whole day. It's a task to keep some of my friends off the floor daily! I would love to offer them another work spot that's not on the cold floor!
