Creating a comfortable meeting area in the classroom with this rug and book carts will change the classroom environment for the better in many ways. Firstly, it fosters a sense of comfort and safety. It will also bring a community of learners together to learn about something as a group, to be involved in the same genre, or process, or overall study at the same time, together. The meeting area is the place where the class has conversations, learns to listen to one another, and respect each other’s perspectives. Usually when we are engaged in whole class instruction, it needs to be as short and as engaging as humanly possible. To get the most out of the brief whole class teaching, I must get kids up close to me. Creating a comfortable meeting area forms a family meeting place that also caters to learning basic student collaboration skills which is essential for their educational future.
