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
Each day my scholars spend 30 minutes in quiet reading. They have learned to choose a “ just right” book to read. Due to several years of building an engaging classroom library filled with books kids love, I can offer kids a large variety of books that peak their interest! In addition, I have invested $$ in battery operated lanterns so kids can pair up with a lantern and read. The fun part is we create an atmosphere that makes reading shine by shutting off 1/2 of our classroom lights so kids can read by lantern. I would love for my kids to have comfy flexible seating such as wobble stools to sit on with their classmates while they read. They would be so excited!
