Carpet squares are just another way my students will find reading fun! Although I have carpets in my room, a large amount of the floor is tiled and it helps for children to have another place to sit when reading or doing a quiet activity. I’m kindergarten it’s sometimes super hard to concentrate with so many other friends around you. Carpet squares can help enhance their attention, confidence, and overall learning. It also helps them to move around the room throughout the day to get their wiggles out! Thanks so much for taking time out of your day to help us out!
