As I introduce or review new standards my students always enjoy finding a comfortable spot on the rug to sit. The problem is that the rugs have been at the school for the past 20 years, longer than I have been teaching. When it is lifted up, there is so much dirt underneath. The classroom environment should be inviting, engaging, and clean for all students. However, I don’t feel that is the case. I would love to know when my students are on the floor to read a book, using their laptops, or completing an assignment that their little heads are not on dirt.
