I would love to offer my new students a place to gather together daily with a new circle time rug. The rug will serve as a place to meet, share ideas, dance out our wiggles, sing silly songs, and read amazing books together. This is a place where everyone is heard and respected. This rug will help calm the classroom with its warm brown colors and its natural woodlike texture. The rug will also be big enough for parents to also join us at the ​circle. This helps to build positive bonds with the family as well as the child. The rug will provide enough space for the children to sit comfortably without touching a neighbor!
