My students need a classroom carpet so they can have a cozy space for reading. A cozy classroom area will help them build their love for reading when they can get comfortable with a book.

My Students
My students have many challenges they face everyday. Many come to school hungry, exhausted, and/or emotionally frustrated. We need to first satisfy their basic needs before they can even begin to learn. Our school is ensuring that we teach the whole child and they get all of their needs fulfilled. We want to make sure they leave each grade not only prepared for the next, but that they are 21st century life-long learners.
About 99% of my students get free or reduced lunch, which means there are probably hardships at home.
They need to be exposed to more books and build a love of Literacy. I would like to make a cozy environment for them to read and build their love of Literacy.
My Project
Having a space in my room where students can go to relax while reading will hopefully motivate them to want to read more. This will help them to build a love of Literacy. A carpet will be a place where the students can stretch out and get cozy with a book.
It is also a place where the students can listen to their teacher read to them.
I hope this carpet can be a place where the students want to go and just relax with a book. This carpet will truly make a difference with my students and help them to love reading!
