My Project

I wish to create a reading nook that is comfy, cozy, and relaxing. My reading nook will provide a quiet area for my students to get lost in a book. The addition of new books, flexible seating, and lamps will continue to encourage my student readers in the classroom. I teach and support students with reading disabilities. My students lack confidence in choosing and engaging with books. They are always excited when new books are introduced to our classroom library. I would love to continue enhancing the need and exposure of reading literature in my classroom.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
