My Project
I seek to transform my basic classroom set-up into a safe, nurturing reading corner complete with flexible seating, soft lighting, and sensory-friendly materials. I will also support our school-wide PBIS initiative by providing a variety of rewards for students.
Middle school students always benefit from calm, cozy spaces where they can immerse themselves in books while regulating their middle school emotions and building resilience.
My 7th-grade ELA students are growing not just as readers, but as people learning to navigate big emotions and even bigger responsibilities. Many of them come to school carrying stress, anxiety, or sensory needs that make it hard to focus and feel safe. I know my students will love a space where they can relax, reset, and reconnect with a love for reading!
