Mrs. Van Hout’s Classroom Edit display name

I know I do my best school work when I am most comfortable, which is often at home, on my couch after a busy day of teaching and learning. My goal is to give my students a comfortable space where they can dive into any books they choose or work independently on assignments! Our old bookshelves have fallen apart and the only places my students currently have to read are at their desks or a rug on our tile floor. I want to provide my students with a comfortable place to make them feel safe and at home in our classroom. I want my students to be continue to find a love for reading and learning in the most comfortable environment possible. Every student deserves the chance to love reading and learning and to have a cozy safe space to engage in by providing them with reading pillows, floor loungers and a futon. I want them to be excited and am hoping with your help we can achieve that goal!
