About Factory Second Classroom Rugs:

We have been given access to a small inventory of irregular classroom-style rugs that do not meet the rigid first quality standards of Carpets for Kids.

This is a brand new rug that may include a slight color change, small dye spots, printer lines, a slight backing flaw or a seam that hasn't been sewn perfectly straight. 

Each space makes a perfect place for children to sit on and have plenty of wiggle room, all while being surrounded by a literacy border that includes the uppercase and lowercase alphabet letters.

Not only are you getting a great rug, you re saving a bundle. This commercial quality carpet has great colors that can be used for floor games* and lesson plans in class.

      Here's a classroom activity for the colorful alphabet rug, suitable for young learners:

      Activity Title: Alphabet Adventure Hop

      Learning Objectives:

      • Letter recognition (uppercase and lowercase)

      • Letter-sound correspondence (beginning sounds)

      • Gross motor skills

      • Following directions

      • Cooperation and turn-taking

      Materials:

      • The colorful alphabet rug (as pictured)

      • Small objects or picture cards representing words that start with each letter of the alphabet (e.g., an apple for 'A', a ball for 'B', a cat for 'C', etc. You don't need one for every letter, but a good selection is helpful).

      • Optional: Whiteboard or large paper for writing

      • Optional: Music player

      Setup:

      1. Place the alphabet rug in an open area of the classroom where students have space to move around it.

      2. Scatter the small objects or picture cards around the rug, or place them in a basket for easy access.

      Activity Instructions:

      Part 1: Letter Recognition Hop

      1. Introduce the Rug: Gather students around the rug. Point out the letters and the different colored rows. "Look at our amazing alphabet rug! It has all the letters of the alphabet, and they are so colorful!"

      2. "Find the Letter" Hop: Call out a letter (e.g., "Who can find the letter 'D'?" or "Hop to the letter 'T'!"). Students take turns hopping or stepping onto the correct letter square.

        • Differentiation: For younger students, call out uppercase letters. For older students, call out lowercase letters and have them find the corresponding uppercase (or vice versa).

      3. "Color Hop": Call out a color and ask students to hop on any letter within that color row. "Let's all hop on a letter in the red row!"

      4. "ABC Order Hop": Have students take turns hopping along the alphabet in order (Aa, Bb, Cc...). This can be done individually or as a group.

      Part 2: Beginning Sounds Scavenger Hunt

      1. Introduce the Concept: Hold up an object or picture card (e.g., an apple). "What is this? An apple! What sound does 'apple' start with? /a/ /a/ apple! Which letter makes the /a/ sound?"

      2. Match and Place: Students identify the starting sound and hop to the corresponding letter on the rug. Once they are on the letter, they can place the object/card on that letter square.

        • Example: If you show a picture of a "cat," a student would hop to "Cc" and place the picture there.

      3. Team Challenge (Optional): Divide the class into two teams. Give each team a set of objects/cards. On your signal, they race to place their objects on the correct letter squares on the rug. The first team to correctly place all their items wins!

      Part 3: Alphabet Action Dance (Optional, for high energy!)

      1. Play some energetic music.

      2. When the music stops, call out a letter. Students must quickly hop to that letter.

      3. Once on the letter, call out an action that starts with that letter's sound (e.g., for "Jj," "Jump!"). Students perform the action.

        • Examples:

          • A: Arm circles

          • B: Bounce

          • C: Clap

          • D: Dance

          • E: Elbow wiggle

          • F: Flap arms

          • G: Gallop

          • H: Hop

          • I: Inchworm crawl

          • J: Jump

          • K: Kick

          • L: Leap

          • M: March

          • N: Nod

          • O: Open and close hands

          • P: Pat your head

          • Q: Quiet stretch

          • R: Run in place

          • S: Shake

          • T: Tap toes

          • U: Underneath stretch

          • V: V-shape body

          • W: Wiggle

          • X: X-jump (jumping jack)

          • Y: Yawn stretch

          • Z: Zig-zag run

      Extension Activities:

      • Story Time Hop: As you read an alphabet book, have students hop to the letter as you read about it.

      • "My Name Starts With...": Have students find the letter their name starts with and stand on it.

      • Create Your Own Words: With older students, challenge them to stand on three different letters and try to make a word using those letters (e.g., C-A-T).

      Assessment:

      • Observe students' ability to correctly identify and hop to letters.

      • Listen for accurate letter-sound correspondence.

      • Note their participation and engagement.

      This activity is highly adaptable to different age groups and learning levels, making the alphabet rug a dynamic and engaging learning tool!
