My Project

My students love coming to school and are eager to get busy learning each day! Making my classroom cozy and inviting is part if making learning more enjoyable for the students.

The little table lights will put off the perfect amount of light so I can turn off the overhead lights while doing whole group instruction and the kids can still see to take notes.

The rug and oversized pillow are perfect to create a little cozy corner for the students to head to when working in small groups.

I want to make my classroom feel comfortable and cozy so they feel like they are at home each morning.
