Because of you, my students now have a comfortable, and inviting place to read and learn every single day.\r\n\r\nWhen the seats arrived, the students immediately gravitated toward them—curling up with a good book and settling into focused on reading their book. These seats have transformed our learning environment into a space where students feel safe, calm, and ready to do their best reading. \r\n\r\nFor many of my students, having a choice in where they sit helps them regulate their energy, stay engaged longer, and take more ownership of their learning. The cozy floor seats give them exactly that: comfort, independence, and a sense of belonging. It's amazing to see how something so simple can create such a powerful shift in their confidence and motivation in reading.\r\n\r\nYour kindness has made our classroom feel more like a home—one where every student feels valued and supported.

One student told me that they didn't realize how quickly the time flies by when reading while using the cushion chair. Another student said, \"Mrs. Nichols, thank you so much for getting the cushion chairs for us. I am enjoying being able to relax on it and dive deep into my book.\" The cushion chairs are developing lifelong readers in the classroom to inspire the students to read daily. \r\nLastly, thank you for the donation of the figurative language game.
