Flexible Reading!

Help me give my students bean bags and floor chairs in order to give them the flexibility to read comfortably around the room. The chair pockets will allow students to be able to store their belongings.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Hello,

The joy of learning how to read is what I love most about first grade!

I have learned through my years of teaching that changing the setting of where students are to read can make reading much reading more exciting for them!

With your help I will be able to build a cozy library area where students can take pleasure in reading comfortably.

Students this age are also learning how to be neat and organized. With the help of chair pockets, students will begin to learn how to use different spaces to organize their many things, a skill that will help throughout their lifetime.
