My Project
For this project I am asking for bean bag chairs to help create a reading nook in my classroom. Often times, at home, students do not have a comfortable and conducive space to delve into a good book! It is my goal to create a space within our classroom where each student can't wait to come in a cozy up with a good book! Many of my students are just learning how to read, so I will use the rings to hold words that they learn as they are reading new books! I will also use the laminating pouches to laminate these new words that they learn so they can remain durable. They can then use these words to practice at home and within the classroom. The more books that they read in their cozy reading corner, the more words that they will have on their ring! Please help me foster a love for reading by creating a space that the student look forward to reading in!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
