My Project

My little scholars love books! They are all engaged at Story Time, and love our classroom library where they can choose their own books to read.

Because reading is most important, I want to encourage my young scholars to enjoy books as often as possible.

A new comfy chair in our classroom library will give them the perfect spot to cozy up and enjoy a good book! Currently, they sit on the carpet to read books. I would love to provide them a more inviting place, which will also encourage more book time!
