My Project

With your help my classroom library will get a much needed upgrade.

Having a new rug, cushions, and floor seating will provide a calm area for my students.Having a place to decompress, learn social emotional skills through read alouds, and spend time with their favorite books will make them feel more at home.

Spending time in the library center is one of my students' favorite things to do. I have had the same small rug and cushions for 5 years. They are looking quite rough at this point. An upgrade would be wonderful for the classroom.

This project would not be possible without your assistance. Any help is greatly appreciated!
