My Project

My English Language, EL students are learning and working really hard to become better readers. I have many EL learners who wish to grow into amazing readers and who enjoy reading. Books are the most important part of the plan to encourage reading, but the space is very important as well. I want to give my students space that they will love. A space that will draw them in and motivate them to spend time with books and when I support them with learning the English language! With these chairs, we will be able to create a comfortable learning space .

I need to travel to many rooms on a daily basis to help support the ESL students.

These chairs are able to come with me from room to room. The students will have so much joy entering our reading and writing corner that they won’t want to leave! This space will make reading exciting for my students as well as give them a space in the classroom to work on their English Language and become successful.
