My Students

My students love to read. Sometimes we have double classes and it makes the library very crowded. I wanted to get bean bag chairs to make the library a bit cozier and also to have a place for the students to sit if the class size gets too big.

Our school is an at-risk school.

My students love coming to the library and they enjoy reading. I wanted to give the students an incentive to read. I'm sure they would love to sit on a cozy bean bag chair and read a story. I'm also trying to get my fifth graders to read more chapter books. Hopefully, the bean bag chairs will motivate the students to read.

My Project

I really wanted bean bag chairs in my library for a long time. I'm hoping it will make the library seem cozy and peaceful. It will create a good environment for students to sit down and read a book. If students are modeling this behavior; other students will want to sit and read a book. I'm hoping the bean bag chairs will be a privilege for the students.

I believe adding bean bag chairs to the library will create a cozy environment where students will want to sit down and read a book.

It will also help when I have double classes to allow some students a nice place to sit and read.
