Having flexible seating will allow my students to gain a sense of comfortable style reading time and focus. Many of my students enjoy leisure reading, but endure a lot at home. Some of them do not always get a quiet space to themselves to read at home, and school is the only place for them to achieve this quality time. Along with the clipboards and BINGO grammar games, my students will be able to enhance their concentration and comprehension in literacy in a more comfortable setting. Oftentimes, my young minds may struggle with confidence in their writing and may feel like their work is being judged the moment they begin to write. With these key materials, I am certain that my students will become comfortable with their writing; furthermore excel in their understanding, creativity, and expressing their opinions through writing.
