(I know that's incredibly vague.) <br /><br />The rug has 24 squares. I found it in one of our school's supply books (J. Green, maybe?). I do not have the luxury of having only 24 students in each class, though. I find that I can fit a class of 26 or so kindergarteners around the outside of the carpet comfortably. I have classes of 30 fourth graders. Those kids have to scoot back from the carpet a foot or so in order to ensure that all kids are in the circle. <br /><br />Even with big classes like yours of 32, the carpet is super handy and wonderful. It helps kids stay in a circle when playing games and moving, and I like to use it for assessment, too when identifying music symbols, pitches, and such. <br /><br />I hope you can get it! (The assessment argument really helped sell it for my principal, just fyi.) :)Kayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01713448504107695091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152211250055040999.post-50359520103332984782014-08-29T08:14:03.275-07:002014-08-29T08:14:03.275-07:00Thanks so much for your beautiful ideas!

How many kids can sit on there comfortably (a few of my classes are up to 32).<br /><br />Thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16875454833995441540noreply@blogger.com
