This will help my students by creating a comfortable and safe environment while silently reading and/or working during our class work time. Each school day we read for 20 minutes as a class. Reading is important for our classroom culture. Studies have shown students who read 20 minutes a day become exposed to 1.8 million words in one school year. Reading improves writing skills. It expands vocabulary. During silent reading, and work time students can sit wherever they like. My hope is to make silent reading an exciting time that students look forward to. This is why I am starting a donors choose for flexible seating. Research shows that flexible seating improves students attention and focus Please help me create our silent reading and work time a more relaxing and comfortable place!
