Our Comfort Zone

My students need a comfortable place (rug) to meet and read, Our Comfort Zone to come together and learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Taylor's classroom raised $418

My Students

While the world speeds by outside of us, our children's classrooms are not equipped to develop their needs for success. Students are eager for more instruments in the class to build their knowledge and self esteem.

Students need a welcoming and comforting place to learn.

They need inviting reading centers to relax and enjoy reading. Children will be more encouraged to read with reading centers that have attractive and comfortable seats and carpets.

They should be able to relax and enjoy a good book!

My Project

Who doesn't like to stretch out and enjoy a good book? Our children need an inviting and comfortable place to learn and read. We want kids to ENJOY reading! Having a reading center that is inviting and comfortable will encourage children to want to have a seat and read. They need to move around be able to relax.

My room currently has a cold tile floor, that is walked over.

That is not an inviting and fun place for a child to sit and read. I would LOVE to have a colorful soft reading rug for the students to sit and relax. It would be a wonderful addition to my reading center.
