My Project

Book nooks are a favorite thing in our classroom. They love having a comfortable spot to read while I pull small groups. Each day they have a different spot to read.

Beanbag chairs are a favorite book nook in our classroom.

They will be so excited to have more beanbag chairs in our rotation. This quiet time helps build their reading stamina and allows me time to pull small groups to work on focused instruction.

The storage bench will hold fun reading blankets that students can use as their comfortably read their leveled texts.

Ms. Mitchell
Grades 3-5
