Building a Reading Atmosphere

Help me give my students materials for a calm reading environment across our school!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Freeland's classroom raised $1,083

My Project

Our focus every year at BPE is to build a community of readers! We've had various projects to inspire readers from PreK-5th grade, including a school-wide reading competition and a "lending library" in our entryway. Whenever new books are displayed in our library, in the classroom, or even in the entryway, students swarm the area, excited to find the perfect book. They'll trade books in the hallways, classrooms, and outside on the playground, carting them around in backpacks, lunch boxes, or carrying them in their hands.

Students at BPE LOVE reading, so now we want to create an environment that encourages them to sink into a good book.

As a school-based specialist, I'm reading with students in every classroom, and we want our very old school building to be more reflective of the reading environment we enjoy in our personal lives! These materials will help beautify our school and encourage reading.
