My first grade students currently do not have a rug in the classroom for circle time, morning meetings or read alouds. I did have a piece of tape with their name on it but it quickly was torn and roughed up by the traffic and area the students use. We could not only have organized seating, but a comfy place for the children to come in and relax. This would also serve as a way to count and learn colors as well with the patterns the rug has on it. I know it seems crazy to ask for a rug, but students respond better in classrooms they are proud of and can call their own. Same with a place to sit at on the rug. The spot will be theirs and they will be more likely to take charge of their behavior knowing that the rug is a privilege.
