My Project

Reading is fundamental and those who have difficulty reading need a place to relax and feel at ease while they are learning, exploring and becoming better readers. With readers at different levels and readers with sensory related needs a calming nook that is inviting to the eye and also comfortable. A set of new books and floor pillows will encourage the students to use the nook area and know that they are safe and can have all their needs met. Reading for fun will provide the students the skills they need to continue to grow into readers who love to read and explore the world through reading.
