My Project

I am a Reading Specialist looking to continue the great work my students do in our classroom. It is the end of the year, and we are running out of the essentials. Markers provide a tactile way to engage student writing. During center reading time, students will feel comfy and inspired to enjoy the wonderful world of fiction and nonfiction while seated in their special chair.

The table easel and pocket chart holder will allow for myself to stop fidgeting with organization, so I can have orderly displays ready to go.

Here's to a calm, inviting, and organized reading and writing classroom that every student will love!
