This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
I’m so excited to share with you about our Daily Reading Lantern Period! Over the past few years I have acquired an amazing and engaging classroom library filled with books kids want to “gobble” up! To foster a love of reading I have invested my own money and purchased battery operated lanterns. The kids find a space in the room that they are comfortable in and cozy up with their “just right” book(s). My goal is to create an environment that feels safe, cozy and peaceful. We lower the classroom lights so the kids can read by lantern. All that I am hoping for now is a classroom rug to create an additional space for kids to feel at home on. Students will use this rug to sit down with a good book to read or to work on activities.
