My Project

The classroom rug is for whole group learning. In Kindergarten, students can learn best on a rug in close proximity to the teacher. As a 4th grade teacher moving to Kindergarten, I would use this rug daily and students would have a happy spot to sit in every day! I can't wait to read books to students daily!

According to an article by Quality Classroom, "Rugs, or carpeted surfaces are some of the best flooring options as they can help to reduce sounds and ground level vibration and this helps to create a calm learning environment where students can focus with less distraction.

On the rug, everyone is facing one direction: the speaker in the middle of the rug. This makes the communication process with students easier, and teacher can quickly identify the students who are not paying attention."

Overall, this classroom rug would help the class have a place to sit, learn, and have a wonderful first year of school experience in Kindergarten!
