Students love reading, but lack the desire to do so in the classroom since there isn't a comfortable area for them to relax and dive into a book. A new rug, bean bag chairs, and floor pillows would allow for students to get cozy with a new favorite book. Allowing students to be comfortable in their own library would help foster their love for reading. Currently the classroom library is lacking organization. It is difficult and frustrating for students to find new books they are interested in because of this. Students try to organize the books by genre, but it is difficult for it to stay organized due to lack of book bins. Bins would allow students easy access to locate books they're interested in.
