My students have a plain blue rug that is in need of a face lift to foster personal space with rainbow squares for each student! Students will know when they are dismissed by color to lessen classroom confusion, and congestion when walking around the classroom. I have a variety of students who come from many different backgrounds where they don't have a space to call their own. I would like to be respectful of that personal space by having colored squares on the rug so each student knows their boundaries and can be moved if needed. Our carpet is a focal point of our classroom, where students have a space to learn new information, and work while being comfortable. This bright new classroom rug would brighten up my students day every time they walk into the classroom!
