It would be unreasonable to ask a five year old kindergartner to sit at a desk all day. In fact, my students sit at their desk for about forty percent of the day. The rest of the the day they are up and about or sitting on the rug. That is why I have chosen to ask for a classroom rug for my Donors Choose project. A lot of fun learning takes place while the students are sitting on the rug It is important that we have a clean rug that is in good condition. Students sit on the rug when I read stories to them, which is three or four times a day. They also work on math projects using manipulates on the rug. Often, students will ask to do their "seat" work on the rug with a clipboard instead of at their desk. Great building block structures are erected on the rug. And yes, the students do sometimes roll on the rug! That's what makes learning so much fun for them. I would say the rug area is the nucleus of our classroom. It is where we do most of our learning and sit together as a whole. It is where we work as a team and build our learning community.
