My Project

Our classroom book nook is going to be a wonderful addition to our room, where students can explore their interests, cuddle with their favorite characters and chat with their peers about the books that they love.

It is my hope that in our book nook space my 1st graders will begin to develop a love of reading that will help them succeed on their educational journey and beyond.

Providing all different types of genres for students to peruse, books on all levels for access to all readers and GIANT stuffed animals will make the book nook the favorite place to be in our classroom!
