This project puts the finishing touches on our classroom community. Each day my students engage in a read to self time where they enjoy a book of their choice. My goal is to increase the love of reading in all my students. Reading for pleasure is an important aspect in this goal. Reading in a pleasurable way is the key to developing a love for reading. Sitting in a comfy chair will help my students feel at ease and comfortable during our read to self time. Second, my students are encouraged to bring water bottles from home to help stop the spread of illness from drinking fountains. Many of my students are from lower income families where a water bottle is not on the necessity list. I am hoping this project brings each of my students a personal water bottle that they can use at school.
