A classroom carpet will give each student their own square to sit in during morning meeting, group activities, read alouds and so much more!
Morning meetings are essential for building classroom culture. Many of my students are not taught interpersonal, social, and emotional skills at home.

The carpet is also where whole group instruction is given. If each student has their own space they can remain attentive for longer periods of time.
