Collaboration and accountable talk is important to our principal. During meeting times, our students will be exploring ways to explain their learning verbally. Currently, our classroom does not have a carpet or rug. The students have to sit on a cold, laminate floor. Making sure the students are feeling cozy will enhance their ability to share important examples of what they know. “Talk supports robust learning by boosting memory. Talk is a rich source of information and plays a part in developing almost every memory we form.” *came from the Institute for Learning. A carpet will give our students a comfortable place to make links to other concepts and meaning we already have. This helps them practice the skills we are learning in a different way. All students learn differently, and this helps me differentiate how they are learning. This will enhance the environment. My goal is to help students be excited about learning.
