Turning Eye Rolls into Page Turns

Help me give my students a cozy space where they can curl up with a good book instead of arguing that “I wasn’t talking.”

My Project

My 8th grade ELA students at a Title I school deserve a classroom that feels warm, welcoming, and inspiring. Middle school can be stressful, and I want to create a cozy environment where students feel comfortable taking risks, sharing ideas, and developing a love for reading and writing. This project will help transform our classroom with plants, calming décor, flexible seating, and other cozy touches that make learning feel inviting. A positive classroom environment helps students build confidence, stay engaged, and know they belong. By supporting this project, you’re helping create a space where every student can relax, connect, and let their story grow.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
