Relaxed Reading

Help me give my students a cozy, relaxing reading nook and listening center.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Zimmerman's classroom raised $276

This project is fully funded

My Project

I have a wide range of readers in my 3rd grade classroom. I would like to provide a relaxing area for them to read or listen to stories. I have headphones and books on CD, but my CD player no longer works.

I would like to create a cozy place for my students to enjoy reading and listening to stories.

The back rests, reading bench, and canopy will provide a fun area for the student to read and listen to stories on CD.

I will use this space during our workshop stations and during choice time after work is complete. Building a love of reading is important. These items will help provide a comfy space to support that love and enjoyment.
