My Project

Our school is undergoing a 3 year renovation, in the middle of budget cuts! At the end of May my students and I will move back into our newly renovated classroom. But where will we put our books? While moving out of our classrooms and into mobiles units, our very old built in (waxed to the floor) shelves were destroyed.

These new bookshelves will provide a place to store our classroom library!

This rug will add comfort and help encourage students to read. Who wouldn't want to curl up on this adorable rug and read a good book?!
