My Project
What I love most about my students is their enthusiasm, imagination, and unique perspectives. Each day, they come to class ready to share their ideas, ask questions, and explore new concepts with energy and excitement. They are eager to grow, and I am constantly inspired by their determination and creativity. Comfortable furniture in our classroom library would create a welcoming space where students feel relaxed and eager to read. Soft seating like bean bags or cushioned chairs would help them focus better and enjoy longer periods of reading. A cozy environment would encourage more independent reading and help build a positive association with books. With a dedicated, comfortable reading area and rug , students would be more motivated to explore new stories and grow as confident, engaged readers.
