Our Reading Corner Needs a Make-Over!

Help me give my students more books and an organized space as their reading corner.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Evans's classroom raised $470

This project is fully funded

My Project

We have a reading corner in our classroom but over the years the cushions and chairs have gotten more worn down because it is a favorite spot in our classroom.

I would love to add a brightly colored rug, some brightly colored bins for organizing and storing books, some new seating options, and more books to our book nook.

Students would feel welcomed to that space and be more excited about going there to read.

As first graders, students are learning to read and we want to foster not only the learning to read but ENJOYING reading and excitement for reading.

Please help give my students a new and updated space filled with beautiful materials and new books for their reading corner.
