My Students

I remember when I was a kid, that I had a great, soft beanbag chair where I spent many an hour reading books. It was so awesome to just sink right in and read. This was at time when I enjoyed reading.

I teach the most amazing group of fourth graders.

They are caring and kind and sincerely enjoy learning. They love reading and continuously ask for extra reading time. Although they often ask to sit anywhere but their seats. Beanbag chairs would be much cozier then their metal chairs. I honestly feel that these beanbag chairs will motivate students to get comfy and read.

My Project

My students being so kind and caring will not have any difficulty sharing the beanbag chairs fairly. By supporting this grant you will be giving students a place to sit back, relax and enjoy literature. These beanbag chairs will be a place where are the students want to be.

My students will be eager to get comfy and read daily with a place to go.

They will build on their love for reading by staying motivated to read. I hope that you think back to when you were in school and think about how these beanbag chairs would have motivated you.
