Room to Read

Help me give my students a welcoming, engaging, and well equipped learning environment where they can grow into confident readers, writers, and critical thinkers.

Ms. Holmes Sugar Creek Charter School
Charlotte, NC Grades 3-5

My Project

My fifth-grade students are curious, creative, and eager to learn. They come to school each day with unique strengths, perspectives, and dreams, and I love watching their confidence grow as they discover the power of reading and writing. They thrive when they have opportunities to collaborate, think critically, and express themselves in meaningful ways.

The resources for this project will help create a classroom where every student can succeed.

Classroom materials such as books, writing supplies, organizational tools, and instructional resources will support daily literacy lessons and provide engaging, hands-on learning experiences. Flexible seating, classroom décor, and organizational materials will create a welcoming, comfortable environment that helps students stay focused, feel valued, and take pride in their learning space.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
