Carpet spot assignments

This year my students carpet spots will be assigned by letters and they will keep the same spot for a month.  Their assigned letter can be found on their table name and they will match it up to the letter I have taped on the carpet.  This will teach them alphabetical order and matching. After Christmas they are able to find their ABC spots without the tape on the floor!
