Sitting in a chair at a table all day causes boredom and loss of attention. The large carpet will be placed in the front of the classroom and used as a gathering place during calendar time, direct instruction before a project, and end-of-day review would take place "on the carpet". Changing things up and transitioning from table to rug (and back) throughout the day will encourage a sense of community, help decrease behaviors, and increase focus.
