My Project

I teach an amazing bunch of first graders that LOVE to read, but our classroom library needs to be leveled-up to create an inviting and engaging space for my students. They need flexible seating to sit and offer a comfortable space to read. They also need a book shelf and rolling cart to display and store all of our books.

Creating an organized and functional reading space will allow my students to have more time reading, which mean more learning as well.

Having these materials will help make that happen.

Thank you for supporting and donating to my project.
