Help me give my students the gift of a comfy reading and relaxation corner.

My Project

I would love to create a soft, comfortable reading and calming corner for my students.

Creating a quiet, comfortable place to relax, work on reading, or take a much needed break is essential to making sure my students feel seen, heard, and valued!

Meeting our students where they are is imperative. Allowing the kids to have a safe place for a few minutes during the school day to calm down, relax, and self-regulate will be great to add to our classroom.

A classroom rug, bleacher seats, and a bookshelf to create a welcoming space would be amazing.
