My Project

As a first-year teacher, I want to create a classroom library that inspires my students to become lifelong readers. My students will be curious, enthusiastic learners, and I hope to foster a space where they feel excited to explore books every day. Flexible floor seats will give students comfortable choices that improve focus, reading stamina, and participation during literacy activities. Flower pillows will create a cozy reading nook that makes independent reading inviting and enjoyable.

Every cozy corner creates a new opportunity to grow as a reader.

The plush dinosaur will serve as a comforting reading buddy, helping students build confidence while reading aloud. Together, these resources will strengthen literacy skills, encourage independence, and nurture a lifelong love of reading.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
