Three's Company and Four's Comfortable Reading Corner

Help me give my students a reading space that embraces their mind, rewards their curiosity, and combines their love of reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Day's classroom raised $926

My Project

I love my 3rd and 4th graders for their energy and enthusiasm for learning. The beanbags and floor chairs will create a comfortable reading area where students can relax and enjoy books, promoting a love for reading. The bench will provide flexible seating options for group work, encouraging collaboration and communication. The new books will engage their interests and improve literacy skills. The carpets will define the reading space and make it inviting.

My goal for this project is to foster a cozy and inspiring environment that supports diverse learning styles.

What makes my students special is their creativity and willingness to explore new ideas, and these resources will help them feel valued and motivated to learn.
