My Project

This carpet will help me provide a change of environment for my students. They would not have to sit at their desks the whole time during instruction, which can eliminate some distractions and provide a more engaging, fun, and successful lesson.

Students also could choose to move to the carpet during story time as well as silent reading and other work time.

Providing this carpet choice would help students identify when they are in need of a change as well as give them the chance to make the choice to move around if they are having a difficult time focusing at their desks. This flexible seating would help my students in the classroom.
