My Project

Students love to read a good book and be cozy, so I decided to make a project for students that helps them achieve both of these things! In my classroom, we sit on the carpet and in the library for a "different scenery" than sitting at their desks all day. The materials such as the cushions would help add more options for sitting spaces.

Students love having the option to get up and move around while boosting their literacy with books!

The books I chose for this project have been highly requested by students. Thank you for considering to donate to our classroom.
